Hop BroBreaking news! Montrey Brewing is setting up at "Craft Beer Party X in Ichinomiya Honmachi Arcade" in Ichinomiya City, Aichi Prefecture, on November 8 and 9, 2025. Head straight for Honmachi-dori 2-chome, Booth 36!
MugiWhat? You even know the exact spot! And it's a full two days from 10:00 to 19:00? That sounds like a proper all-day plan!
Hop BroExactly. And this brewery is based in Shiojiri City, Nagano Prefecture, with "Made with Shinshu-grown fruit!" as one of its selling points. Their signature is a fruit-ale style beer made with Shinshu apples.
MugiWait, what? Does fruit ale mean sweet beer that tastes like juice?
Hop BroClose, but not quite. Ale is a style that tends to bring out aroma through top fermentation, and here they layer apple aroma on top of that. The key is balancing fruit character and drinkability without making the sweetness too heavy.
MugiOhhh! Sudden pro lesson! So basically, "it smells like apples, but it's still beer"!
Hop BroExactly. Plus, the event is a collaboration between "Craft Beer Party X" and "BISHU FES.marche III," and the arcade venue makes it easy to stroll around. Perfect for beer hopping.
MugiAwesome! But what about the weather? I'm the type whose paper map blows away in the wind!
Hop BroAccording to the organizer's notice, the event is scheduled to go ahead unless there's severe weather. But they do warn about wind and rain blowing in, so the winning move is to head straight to Booth 36 first and secure a drink.
MugiDecision made! I want to go toast with Montrey Brewing's Shinshu apple fruit ale so badly!
Hop BroYeah, getting to experience Shinshu ingredients in a glass is exciting. Just thinking about it is making my throat buzz. I want to drink!
