Arinomi Brewery in Ichikawa City, Chiba Prefecture, is holding its "4th Open Factory" during the Golden Week holiday period. In addition to freshly brewed craft beer, visitors can enjoy food trucks and live music, making it an event where you can soak up the brewery's atmosphere as it is.
Hop BroRight now, Arinomi Brewery's 4th Open Factory is running during Golden Week. An event where you can taste the brewery atmosphere itself is irresistible for beer lovers, right?
MugiWhat! You can drink at the factory!? And freshly brewed craft beer too? That's basically a win already!
Hop BroExactly. It's in Ono-machi, Ichikawa City, and runs until May 6. Hours are from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and you can't go by car, so if you're planning to drink, public transportation is the way to go.
MugiWait, no cars but a factory event? What's that supposed to mean? But that means it's a route where you can drink safely, right?
Hop BroExactly. There are food trucks and live music inside, so it's not just a tour, it's a whole-factory experience. And Arinomi Brewery is a pretty serious brewery too, with eight 1,200L tanks.
MugiWow, that's big! And using Ichikawa ingredients gives it such a strong local brewery feel.
Hop BroYeah, they use local ingredients like beets, yuzu, and pears, and their staples include a beet IPA and New Local Saison. The IPA especially has the hop aroma and bitterness really stand out, so it's interesting how it clashes with the ingredients' character.
MugiBeet IPA sounds bold just from the name! But what's a saison? New Local Saison sounds suddenly way too stylish, doesn't it?
Hop BroSaison was originally beer for the off-season, and it's a style with a light fermentation aroma that's easy to drink. That's why this event is strong: you can enjoy a truly Ichikawa pint together with the atmosphere of the actual site.
MugiI see, you can see, hear, and drink everything! I'm already getting hungry, so I want to go with the flow of the live music and beer!
Hop BroNice, then I want a drink too. If you taste Arinomi Brewery's on-site energy and all, it'll definitely make you want another one.
MugiYeah, this is totally a must-go! I'll add it as a Golden Week detour candidate and want to toast with a freshly brewed pint!
