Begun in Spring 2022, this small neighborhood event now has ten participating breweries and importers, including West Coast Brewing, TDM 1874, Titans, Ushitora and Kaigan Brewery. A handful of food trucks will provide snacks. The event will be held in the big open space about 4 minutes from the east exit of Shimo-Kitazawa Station where the above-ground train used to run.

Japan's biggest Belgian beer event kicks off the season in Tokyo's Hibiya Park for the first time. We can expect over one hundred different beers from various brewers, and there will be plenty of food, both Belgian and non-Belgian.

More of a regional beer festival than a Japan-wide event, Tochigi features around 40-50 beers from around a dozen small local Japanese breweries, plus US and other international imports.

A collaborative effort between breweries from Portland, Oregon, and Japan, the festival will showcase the results of 20 different collaborations. A regular ticket gets you eight beers (150ml each) and one food item. One level up is the all-you-can-drink plan, which also includes one food item. Above that, a VIP ticket will get you an extra 30 minutes of drinking plus a T-shirt.
