Hop BroThis weekend, the 5th Higashi-Onomichi BEER FESTA 2026 is happening at Onomichi East Park. Onomichi Brewery will be pouring too!
MugiWhat? Craft beer in a park? That sounds like the ultimate autumn beer picnic!
Hop BroExactly. It runs 11 a.m.–5 p.m. on Saturday, October 17, and 11 a.m.–4 p.m. on Sunday the 18th.
MugiWhat kinds of beer does Onomichi Brewery make? I want something with a true Onomichi flavor!
Hop BroTheir Onomichi Ale is a standout: a pale ale with local lemons. Onomichi Ale pairs citrus freshness with hop aroma—perfect after a stroll.
MugiWhat even is a pale ale? And does hop aroma just mean bitterness?
Hop BroClose, but not quite. A pale ale balances malt flavor with hop aroma and bitterness. Think of it as a fragrant classic beer.
MugiOoh! They also make Innoshima White Ale with hassaku citrus from Innoshima, right? A citrus beer tasting flight could get dangerous!
Hop BroAnd there’s Setoda Lime IPA, a light session IPA using limes from Takaneshima. A session IPA is easy to enjoy for rounds—the well-behaved cousin of IPA.
MugiIPAs have well-behaved cousins!? Then I’ll start with Onomichi Lemon Radler, blended with local lemon lemonade!
Hop BroGreat choice. The brewery is a brewpub in a renovated 1894 storehouse, making beer made in Onomichi with regional ingredients. That’s enough to make a beer nerd emotional.
MugiAfter the festival, let’s visit their Kubo taproom and taste through Onomichi beers! Autumn park air and Setouchi beer—I want one now!
Onomichi Brewery has announced its participation in the 5th Higashi-Onomichi BEER FESTA 2026, held at Onomichi Higashi Park in Takasu, Onomichi. The festival runs from 11:00 to 17:00 on Saturday, October 17, and from 11:00 to 16:00 on Sunday, October 18.
The exact festival tap lineup should be confirmed at the venue, but Onomichi Brewery’s beers include Onomichi Ale, a pale ale brewed with locally grown Onomichi lemons; Shimanami Golden Ale, a golden beer with a clear malt character; and Innoshima White Ale, a wheat beer made with hassaku citrus from Innoshima. Setoda Lime IPA, a light session IPA brewed with limes from Takanejima, and Onomichi Lemon Radler, a slightly sweet beer blended with Onomichi lemonade, also showcase the character of the Setouchi region.
Onomichi Brewery operates from a brewpub built around a renovated storehouse dating to 1894. Its brewing focuses on “Made in Onomichi” beers using local fruits and other regional ingredients. The taproom also offers fresh beer and takeaway products.
After enjoying the festival outdoors, beer fans can visit the brewery’s brewpub at 1-2-24 Kubo, Onomichi. It is a natural stop for anyone looking to compare beers shaped by the flavors and scenery of the Onomichi area.
