Explore Japan's Craft Beer Scene with Otomoni
Otomoni, launched by Brewtope Inc. based in Meguro, Tokyo, is excited to announce a new subscription service called "Otomoni JAPAN CRAFTBEER Odyssey: A Journey through Japan's Craft Beer". This initiative aims to celebrate the unique craft beers produced by local breweries across all 47 prefectures in Japan. The series will consist of six deliveries between November 2025 and March 2026, featuring a variety of regional craft beers with each release.
By subscribing to Otomoni’s regular delivery service, you'll embark on a unique journey through Japan’s beer landscape, showcasing the distinct flavors and stories behind each brewery. Each shipment will highlight a specific area of Japan, allowing subscribers to experience the craftsmanship and cultural heritage that influences these delicious brews.
Unique Offerings
In addition to the regular deliveries, Otomoni is launching a special selection through the Otomoni Store, which includes the "Otomoni JAPAN CRAFTBEER Odyssey Buyer’s Selection". This exclusive bundle will also be available in six deliveries, paralleling the subscription service, and aims to provide a curated experience of the best craft beers from selected breweries.
A unique perk for those subscribing to the complete six-delivery option is the chance to receive an exclusive original tenugui (Japanese hand towel), designed to celebrate this journey through Japanese craft beer. Moreover, Otomoni is planning to run social media campaigns, providing further opportunities for participants to win prizes.
Craft Beer Revolution in Japan
