Yoyogi Park Be Stage

As the temperature rises and the trees start to green, it’s only natural to gravitate towards quenching your thirst with craft beer. In good news for Tokyo brewheads, the inaugural Tokyo Craft Beer Week is set to take place at Yoyogi Park’s Be Stage for 10 consecutive days from April 20 to April 29. The event is expected to be a massive one, with 150-odd beer pubs and bars from the Tokyo area participating. What’s more, be sure to visit on April 25 or 26 to try out some cross-cultural collaboration beers between Japan and South Korea. On those two days, expect to see familiar Japanese brewers like Vertere, West Coast Brewing and Kyoto Brewing pull out only-here beers created together with South Korean brewers and brewpubs. Accompany your pint with eats from food stalls selling Korean festival grub, and settle in for one of the live performances taking place at the venue. While the regular pints from local brewpubs can be purchased directly on site, the special collaboration beers on April 25 and 26 are available by reservation only due to limited supply; book yours now via Peatix.
