North Island Beer to Roll Out Same-Day Events in Ebetsu and Sapporo on March 15
North Island Beer will hold multiple events on March 15, with simultaneous activities in the Ebetsu area and central Sapporo. A pop-up at EBRI, direct sales at the Ebetsu brewery, and a farewell event at Beer Bar North Island will all run at the same time, with limited offerings and a special tap lineup announced.
Hop BroToday’s topic is the same-day events on March 15. North Island Beer is making a big move in Ebetsu and Sapporo all at once!
MugiWhat! All of that on the same day!? Ebetsu and Sapporo at the same time sounds like the kind of day where you wish you had two bodies!
Hop BroFirst up is the EBRI pop-up, where four limited-edition beers are planned. It runs from March 14 to 15, 11:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. (L.O. 7:00 p.m.).
MugiOh wow! But hearing last order at 7:00 p.m. suddenly makes me panic like it’s five minutes before the end of an exam!
Hop BroThere’s also direct sales at the Ebetsu brewery, with Coriander White on offer plus continued limited-quantity canned beer test sales. On March 15, it’ll be open from 12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. Draft-by-weight sales will be temporarily paused for now.
MugiWhat is that! Coriander White sounds cute, but what kind of flavor is it?
Hop BroStylistically, it’s closer to a Belgian witbier, so think light, spice-scented, easy-drinking. The wheat softness comes through first, then the coriander floats in gently.
MugiNow I want one already! Beer Bar North Island in Sapporo is doing a special 14-tap lineup, right? That Randle ver. sounds like a spell!
Hop BroIt’s 14 taps total: the usual 12 plus a hot cinnamon ale and the North Meets South 2nd Ehime Fruit Randle ver. A Randle is a system that adds aroma during pouring, so it boosts the fragrance right before serving.
MugiI see, it’s amazing how both the classics and the experiments are moving forward! Hearing about the Canada-rooted 2001 origin makes that first glass feel even more special!
Hop BroNorth Island Beer is seriously bringing its A-game at the Ebetsu brewery. The only proper ending today is let’s raise a glass right now!
North Island Beer (Ebetsu, Hokkaido) summarized its same-day events in an Instagram post.
First, at EBRI in 3-3 Higashinopporo-cho, Ebetsu, a pop-up shop will be held. The post announced that four limited-edition beers will be available, and food information will be shared in Stories. The dates are March 14 to March 15, and the hours are 11:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. (last order 7:00 p.m.).
At the same time, information on direct sales at North Island Beer’s Ebetsu brewery was also announced. At the brewery shop, “Coriander White” will be offered, and the weigh-and-sell sales are scheduled to be temporarily suspended at this time. In addition, limited-quantity canned beer test sales will continue, with business hours on March 15 set for 12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. The address is 1F, Ambitious Plaza, 11-5 Motomachi, Ebetsu.
In Sapporo, a staff farewell event will be held at Beer Bar North Island (South 2, West 4, Chuo-ku, Sapporo). In addition to the usual 12 taps, the special service will feature hot cinnamon ale and the “North Meets South 2nd” Ehime Fruit Randle ver., bringing the total to 14 taps.
On its official website, North Island Beer describes itself as a craft beer brand from Hokkaido that focuses not only on its regular lineup but also on monthly limited brews, and explains that the brand’s roots lie in an encounter with beer culture in Canada in 2001. This announcement also seems to clearly reflect that approach of letting “core offerings and experimentation run side by side.”
Information may be inaccurate. Please refer to the brewery’s official channels for the latest details.
