Coedo Beer Festival

Kawagoe-based brewery Coedo gets in on the Oktoberfest action with a one-day festival of its own, held right outside Saitama Super Arena. With just five types of beer on offer – Coedo's Beniaka, Ruri, Kyara, Shiro and Shikkoku – the selection isn't quite as diverse as you'd get at the Yokohama Oktoberfest, but the prices should be a little less eye-watering. The Strange Reitaro Travel Swing Orchestra will be in charge of the funky soundtrack.
