A first-time pour


`Yokohama Kanazawa Brewery LaFusion菜na` in Noken-dai, Kanazawa Ward, Yokohama, will make its first appearance at Yumegaoka Beer Festival 2026. In the venue guide, it is introduced as a brewery that specializes in beers and fruit cider made with lemons harvested from fields near Hakkeijima Sea Paradise. Its use of local ingredients, along with its citrus aroma and light drinkability, makes it one to watch.

Breweries from across the prefecture gather


The event lineup includes `Yggdrasil Brewing × Home Ground Hop` from Hiratsuka, `Minami Yokohama Beer Laboratory` from Kanazawabunko, `THE BLISS BREWERY` from Bashamichi, `WHITE DOG BREWING` from Uraga, and `YUMEGAOKA SUNDAY BREWING` from Yumegaoka. In addition, `MacKenDy Brewery` will appear only on Saturday, May 2, `Sankt Gallen` only on Sunday, May 3, and `26K brewery` only on Monday, May 4, creating a lineup that changes from day to day.

Food pairings are easy to picture


The food lineup includes yakitori from `Hanasaka Shokudo`, loco moco and mochiko chicken from `Loco's Moco's`, and acai bowls from the `Eco Campus Research Club of Ferris University`, along with burgers, sausages, char siu egg rice bowls, churros, and more. A lemon-based beer would pair well with fried foods and grilled dishes, while a fruit-forward pour would also suit daytime drinking. For anyone who wants to compare local ingredients with each brewery's character, this is an event with plenty to see and taste.
