Cat Down Café teams up with Asahi Beer for a limited-time pop-up store

By MOOK Scenic Spots Editorial Team

Taiwan's alcoholic beverage market continues to grow, and the drinking culture among locals is becoming increasingly sophisticated. Taiwan Asahi Beer has also partnered with the well-known gastropub "Cat Down" to launch a collaborative pop-up store starting today on the first floor of Taipei’s Breeze Songgao, creating an “Asahi SUPER DRY Fashionable Pop-Up Beer Bar” on the outdoor street-side area. Beer enthusiasts can enjoy the trendiest street-side drinking experience in the Xinyi District.

The “Asahi SUPER DRY Fashionable Pop-Up Beer Bar” will be open from now until November 4th. Following its launches in New York and Seoul, Taipei’s Xinyi District marks the third global location for this stylish pop-up beer bar. For this event, Cat Down has specially prepared its popular signature dishes, including champion fries, fried chicken, and a limited-edition Cat Down Burger, all paired with Asahi SUPER DRY—offering visitors an exclusive late summer to early autumn night experience.

The limited-time pop-up offers two beer choices: draft beer and dark beer. Additionally, a special edition surprise draft beer has been introduced, blending Asahi’s hidden dark beer with regular draft beer in a 7:3 ratio. This combination merges the rich malt aroma of the dark beer with the refreshing taste of the draft, delivering a unique flavor and mouthfeel.

This event also features a limited import of international-style draft beer glasses, crafted with thicker glass to maintain the beer’s cool temperature. There is also a “KARAKUCHI” SERVE and 7:3 draft beer foam golden ratio experience zone. Through the complete demonstration of Asahi’s specially developed 7-step “KARAKuchi” pouring method for keg draft beer, beer fans who love Asahi SUPER DRY for its “refreshing taste,” “clean finish,” and “creamy foam” can experience it firsthand.
