Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke serves four beers on Kyoto Tap Takeover Day 5
Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke is hosting KYOTO BREWERS MEETING TAP TAKE OVER 2026 from June 22 to 27. On Day 5, June 26, the bar highlighted four beers from Kyoto Jozo, Ijicho Brewery, Chichibu Beer, and Sapporo.
Hop BroToday’s big topic is KYOTO BREWERS MEETING at Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke. Day 5 is pouring four beers from Kyoto Brewing, Ichijoji Brewery, and more.
MugiWhat, four beers at once ? I’m already lost! Also, what even is a tap takeover? Are the taps being hijacked?
Hop BroThat mental image is excellent, but a full tap takeover just means the draft lines are switched over to one brewery theme or event so you can focus on those beers.
MugiOhhh, so it’s basically a Kyoto-themed beer festival in one chill basement pub. That sounds weirdly classy and dangerous for my wallet.
Hop BroAnd the lineup is strong: Kyoto Brewing’s Osakini Helles, Ichijoji Golden Ale from Ichijoji Brewery, Chichibu Bakushu’s Namimachi Blackma milk stout, and SAPPORO’s Edelpils.
MugiHold on, what does Helles taste like ? You said that so casually like I was supposed to know. Do I need a spell book first?
Hop BroNo spell book needed. Helles is a pale lager with a clean, easy-drinking feel, but you still get a soft malt character. It’s a very friendly first pint.
MugiOkay, then milk stout sounds like dessert in a glass? Namimachi Blackma sounds cute and intimidating at the same time.
Hop BroThat’s the fun of it: a dark beer with gentle sweetness. And during the event there’s also a limited original beer brewed at Ichijoji using Kyoto water, malt, hops, and yuzu, with brewers visiting on June 27.
MugiThat’s it, I’m thirsty now. I want to go on the 27th too, but first I want the full Day 5 flight and then the Kyoto original as the grand finale!
