Hop BroThe annual spring event is here: Baeren Brewery's Spring Fest 2026 will be held at Morioka Headquarters from May 2 to 6.
MugiWait, five days!? And it's being held on the brewery grounds? The venue alone already sounds delicious!
Hop BroExactly. The main event runs for three days from May 3 to 5, and I like that the five-day format includes May 2 as an eve festival and May 6 as an extension round.
MugiI get the eve festival, but what's an extension round? A beer event with an extension round sounds like baseball, like there might be a comeback home run or something!
Hop BroNo comeback, but it's still a fun setup. On May 6, beer is sold one glass at a time, so it's a day to savor it instead of going all-you-can-drink.
MugiOhhh, so the style really changes. What about tickets? You're not saying we can just drop by on the day, right? There isn't same-day ticket sales or anything like that, is there?
Hop BroThat's where you need to pay attention: it's advance sales only, 2,800 yen per day, no same-day tickets, and only 450 tickets are available each day.
MugiThat's not many! It's a scramble! Where do you buy them, online? Or in stores? Is it that Peatix sale thing?
Hop BroYou can get them at the factory direct sales shop, company-owned stores, and on Peatix. Plus, you can bring your own mug, and they'll also sell event mugs, so the excitement level goes up.
MugiThat's amazing! And the food uses ingredients from Iwate too, so it's the kind of thing that makes the beer go down fast. Dishes made with Iwate ingredients and Baeren draft beer sound absolutely delicious!
Hop BroThere is no parking, so using the shuttle bus is the premise, but you can get there for 250 yen one way from in front of Morioka Station West Exit Marios, and it's reassuring that the event goes on even in rain.
MugiThen in springtime Morioka, the only future I can see is the two of us eating, gathering, and drinking Baeren draft beer while saying, 'One more!' at the end!
Baeren Brewery in Morioka, Iwate, will hold its annual spring event, "Spring Fest 2026." The venue is a special area on the brewery grounds, with the main event running for three days from May 3 to 5. In addition, May 2 will be held as an eve festival, and May 6 as an extension round.
Event Overview
The main event runs from 11:00 to 15:30, with doors opening at 10:00. Advance tickets are priced at 2,800 yen per day, and no same-day tickets will be sold. Ticket sales are limited to 450 per day, and tickets are available at the factory direct sales shop, company-owned stores, and on Peatix.
Drinking Style
No mugs will be provided at the venue, but guests may bring their own. Event mugs are also planned for sale, offering an option for those who want to enjoy the beer from their own container. The May 6 extension round will not be all-you-can-drink; instead, beer will be sold one glass at a time, and a food corner will also be available.
Access and Notes
There is no parking available, so visitors are expected to come by public transportation or shuttle bus. A paid shuttle bus is scheduled to run from in front of Morioka Station West Exit Marios, with a one-way fare of 250 yen to the venue. The food corner will feature dishes made with Iwate ingredients, with an eye toward pairing them with the beer. The event will go ahead in rainy weather and will only be canceled in severe weather, so it would be wise to check the day-of information as well.
True to Baeren Brewery, which has long been rooted in Morioka while developing its craft beer lineup, the event as a whole is carefully built around "drinking," "eating," and "gathering." It looks set to be a chance to enjoy Baeren draft beer and the venue-only atmosphere in springtime Morioka.
