Far Yeast Brewing Announces Brewery Tour and Burger Lunch in Kosuge
Far Yeast Brewing has announced a brewery tour at THE FAR YEAST Beer Adventure, its direct-operated venue in Kosuge, Yamanashi. The post invites visitors behind the scenes at the Genryu Brewery, where the company brews with water from the Tama River headwaters, and says July and August reservations are now open.
Hop BroI’ve got a fun one today: Kosuge Village tour. Far Yeast Brewing is promoting a brewery visit with a burger lunch.
MugiWait, brewery tour lunch too? That’s basically summer vacation homework for grown-ups!
Hop BroAnd the setting is the Gensryu Brewery, where they brew with clean water from the Tama River headwaters.
MugiWhoa, but brew water really changes the taste that much? It looks innocent, but it’s doing a lot.
Hop BroIt really does. Water chemistry affects mouthfeel and how fermentation behaves, so it becomes part of the beer’s foundation.
MugiNo way, fermentation behavior too? So the water is basically the head coach now.
Hop BroExactly, and at THE FAR YEAST Beer Adventure, you can pour Far Yeast series beers yourself and try different craft beer styles.
MugiSelf-pour means I pour it? I’m one nervous tilt away from building a foam volcano.
Hop BroThat’s part of the fun. After the tour, grabbing a classic burger with a cold pint is a pretty unfair combo.
MugiAnd they’re taking July and August bookings, right? Cold beer backstage plus lunch sounds dangerously convincing.
Hop BroFrom central Tokyo it’s about a two-hour drive, so it works as a summer escape with real brewery payoff.
MugiThat settles it, tour then cheers is my ideal schedule. I’d absolutely want a glass in hand by the end.
Far Yeast Brewing operates its Genryu Brewery in Kosuge, Yamanashi. According to the company’s official site, the brewery is about two hours by car from central Tokyo, uses clean water from the Tama River headwaters, and moved its headquarters to Kosuge in 2020. The setting is part of the brand’s appeal: beer production rooted in a mountainous village surrounded by nature.
In the Instagram post, the brewery frames the tour as a way to "escape the summer sun" and step into the cool backstage of beer making. The venue is THE FAR YEAST Beer Adventure, the company’s direct-operated destination in Kosuge. The post points to a tour format that ends with hamburgers and beer, matching the venue’s role as an experiential restaurant and tap room. The Beer Adventure space offers self-serve taps and a food menu that includes its classic burger.
Kosuge’s forested landscape gives the area a different feel from the city even in midsummer, and the announcement reflects that connection between place and beer. Rather than a simple food-and-drink notice, it presents the brewery visit as a chance to understand where the beer comes from and how the site shapes it. Reservations for July and August are being accepted through the profile link.
