Beer and Japanese wine under one roof

Rouge Kusakabenne 2024 is made by Asahi Yoshu Soleil in Yamanashi, primarily from Muscat Bailey A grapes grown in the Kusakabe area. The wine is associated with bright red-fruit aromas and refreshing acidity, offering an interesting contrast to the beer selection.

Known as a destination for beer lovers, Beer Pub Ishii provides a relaxed setting in which to explore different styles. Guests can check the current availability at the pub and choose between a clean lager, a delicate Kölsch, a hop-driven IPA, or the distinctive Japanese red wine.
