MugiWait, there are six first-time exhibitors? That makes it feel pretty festival-like, doesn't it?!
Hop BroAmong them, one standout is Fujisawa's Aura Brewing. It only opened in Fujisawa Honmachi in August 2025, and its specialty is translating the atmosphere and scenery of the town into beer.
MugiWhat is that? F series sounds like some secret organization when you suddenly line up letters like that!
Hop BroHaha, that's the fun part. It's a series that abstractly and poetically expresses the feel of each of Fujisawa's 13 districts. At the venue, labels like Island Breeze and First Light will be lined up.
MugiOhh! So even before you drink it, you can kind of see the scenery of Fujisawa?
Hop BroExactly. And rather than going for flashiness, what makes it appealing is how carefully it reflects the contours of the land. So you can feel not only Shonan's seaside atmosphere, but also the inland character that feels distinctly Fujisawa.
MugiWhoa, that's got real depth! Then I want to compare Toasty Days and Merideian just from the names alone!
Hop BroAnd on top of that, the venue will also have roast beef, spare ribs, Cajun chicken, and Nakatsu fried chicken from Bungo-ya, so the food that goes with beer is pretty strong too.
MugiThat's the best! If there are non-alcoholic drinks and workshops too, then it's a place where both drinkers and non-drinkers can enjoy it with the family.
Hop BroYeah, and the fact that you can stop by while shopping is a big plus. At this point, we just have to savor these three Shonan days.
From Sunday, May 3, 2026, through Tuesday, May 5, 2026, "SHONAN CRAFT BEER FES 2026" will be held at Terrace Mall Shonan in Fujisawa, Kanagawa Prefecture. Marking its second consecutive year, this year's event will bring together 12 breweries in total, including six first-time exhibitors, offering a chance to sample Shonan-area craft beer all in one place.
One of the notable exhibitors is Fujisawa's Aura Brewing. The brewery opened in Fujisawa Honmachi in August 2025, and its defining approach is to distill the atmosphere and scenery of the local area into beer. At the venue, it will present its "F series," which abstractly and poetically expresses the character of each of Fujisawa's 13 districts, featuring labels such as `Island Breeze`, `First Light`, `Sunny Hill`, `Toasty Days`, and `Merideian`.
The brewery's strength lies in its careful craftsmanship, which reflects the contours of the land rather than relying on flashiness, making it a must-see for anyone looking for craft beer rooted in the city of Fujisawa. At this festival, visitors are likely to encounter a glass that conveys not only the atmosphere of Shonan's seaside but also the inland character unique to Fujisawa.
Food that pairs well with beer will also be available, including roast beef, spare ribs, Cajun chicken, and Nakatsu fried chicken from Bungo-ya. Non-alcoholic drinks and workshops that families can enjoy together are also planned, making the event welcoming for both drinkers and non-drinkers alike. Combined with the shopping flow of Terrace Mall Shonan, these three days offer a chance to experience Shonan's craft beer culture.
