Hop BroHideji Beer in Nobeoka, Miyazaki Prefecture is doing a spring Open Brewery at the foot of Mount Mukabaki. It even comes with a brewery tour and a BBQ beer terrace, so it sounds like a lot of fun.
MugiWait! You can go inside the brewery? Beer gets way more special when you see where it’s made!
Hop BroExactly. You can touch the hops and barley, taste the wort before fermentation, and even look at the yeast under a microscope. The fun part is being able to experience the fermentation site firsthand.
MugiHold on, what’s wort? Is that already beer? A pre-fermentation liquid sounds like a science experiment!
Hop BroWort is basically the 'base for beer' made by boiling barley and extracting its sugars. It doesn’t have alcohol yet, but once yeast is added, it turns into beer.
MugiI see! And Hideji Beer is picky about natural water and house yeast, right? That suddenly feels super artisanal!
Hop BroThat’s right. They also use local ingredients, and their signature lineup includes Kurikuro and Kyushu CRAFT. It feels like the local character is in the flavor too, so there really is a reason to drink it here.
MugiKurikuro sounds powerful just from the name! But a black beer with chestnuts? The name alone is intense!
Hop BroThe visual impact is strong, but in reality its appeal is the roasty aroma and rich body. At the spring event, you can drink it with charcoal BBQ, so the pairing should be even better.
MugiAmazing! If there’s a direct-sales shop and food stalls too, it’s basically a beer outing where you can spend the whole day. It sounds family-friendly too!
Hop BroAnd the tour is free, with a duration of about 45 to 60 minutes. It’s easy to visit, but what’s great is that it also conveys the brewers’ way of thinking.
MugiWow, if you can enjoy the scenery of Mount Mukabaki too, it already feels delicious before you even drink! Just imagining a spring glass makes me want to toast right now!
