MugiWhat, a two-day beer party? That sounds wildly dangerous for my weekend plans!
Hop BroIt’s at Endeavour Hakodate Yunokawa by the tram stop, and they’re using indoor and outdoor space for the event.
MugiAnd the guest is Bifuka Shirakaba Brewery? That name already tastes like a forest breeze!
Hop BroThat brewery is known for beer made with white birch sap, and this time a collab beer is aging with Hakodate Yunokawa.
MugiWait, what does aging in progress even mean? Is the beer tucked in for a nap?
Hop BroBasically a professional nap. It helps the flavors settle, and the beer name and style are still under wraps until the event.
MugiNo way, that is such a tease! But if they’ve got comparison pours, we can taste the differences for ourselves, right?
Hop BroExactly. HAPPY AS LARRY is handling the food too, using local ingredients for beer pairing menus that should work really well.
MugiAnd it’s event-only service both days, with soft drinks too, so even non-beer people can join the fun!
Hop BroHakodate Yunokawa also brews with natural water from Otobe, so this feels like a local connection in every pour.
