We have fresh, cold-freighted kegs direct from the land of the rising sun brewed by the following breweries:
- Black Tide Brewing (Kesennuma) - 14th on Untappd in Japan
- Teenage Brewing (Saitama) - 6th on Untappd in Japan
- Totopia Brewing (Nagakute) - 5th on Untappd in Japan
- Uchu Brewing (Yamanashi) - 1st on Untappd in Japan

For many of these breweries this is their first time being available for purchase in Australia!
Benchies will have the beers available for individual purchase or in a tasting paddle and will be doing daily merch giveaways throughout the Pint of Origin event.
Of course, we will also have beer-pairing food available from our critically acclaimed izakaya fusion kitchen :)

Our Black Tide showcase has turned into something a little more as the brewery's founder James and main guy Tanji are appearing on the Coolroom Podcast from 6.30pm to 8pm too.
If you're at Benchies at that time, we'll be live-streaming their chat on our projector and calling into the podcast from the bar.
