Hop BroToday I'm talking about North Island Beer's factory sale day. On May 30 at the Ebetsu brewery, they're even doing Autumn Lager by weight.
MugiWait, you can buy it right at the brewery!? And they accept the Ebetsu Life Support Gift Certificates too? That's almost too kind to local residents!
Hop BroExactly. And since both the All-Store Common Ticket and the Small Business Exclusive Ticket can be used, it's great news for anyone who wasn't sure what to spend them on.
MugiBut how do they measure it? Selling beer by the gram sounds funny just from the wording, like 2.0 yen per gram!
Hop BroIt works by pouring from the keg and calculating by weight. This time they also have a plastic cup for 650 yen, which makes it nice and easy to take home.
MugiWow! And they even prepared some rare kegs? Even on a factory sale day, it sounds like a treasure hunt!
Hop BroAnd this time they're accepting visitors until 5:00 p.m., so people who are heading home from work may be able to stop by. It's the kind of event where you can enjoy the atmosphere of Ebetsu in true North Island style.
MugiNorth Island started as a brand from a brewer who trained in Canada! Now it suddenly has the feel of a serious craft operation!
Hop BroExactly. Their regular lineup is strong, their limited releases are strong, and you can also drink it at Sapporo's Beer Bar NORTH ISLAND, so it's interesting how the experience differs between the brewery and the city.
MugiAll right, I want to taste it along with the atmosphere of the brewery! Today I'm going to the factory sale day, using my gift certificates with an Autumn Lager in hand, and I can already see myself wanting one more drink on the way home!

North Island Beer is a brewery based in Ebetsu, Hokkaido. According to its official website, the brand began with a brewer who trained in Canada, and in addition to its five regular beers it also offers limited and seasonal products. In central Sapporo, it also operates its own Beer Bar NORTH ISLAND, creating a setup where people can enjoy Ebetsu craft beer in multiple ways.
Factory sale days are appealing because they let people pick up beers they usually enjoy in bottles or kegs while experiencing the atmosphere on site. A day like this, when regional gift certificates can be used, is likely to draw attention as a local shopping opportunity as well.
