Hop BroToday I'm introducing Kawaguchi Brewery, a brewpub in Kawaguchi City, Saitama Prefecture. The nice thing is that you can enjoy beer brewed on-site together with kiln-fired dishes.
MugiWait, they make it inside the shop!? On-site brewing sounds like a brewery tour and a drinking party rolled into one!
Hop BroExactly, and the lineup centers on three standards. First is the fruity, easy-to-drink Kawaguchi Onarimichi Ale. Even the name gives off a strong Kawaguchi vibe, which is a nice touch.
MugiOnarimichi sounds unexpectedly old-school! I get the ale part, but fruity and easy to drink makes it sound like even a beer beginner like me could handle it!
Hop BroNext is White Lily Weizen. Its appeal is the soft sweetness of wheat and its refreshing finish, with a light, fluffy mouthfeel that feels great.
MugiWeizen? What is that, a spell!? When I hear wheat sweetness, it almost sounds like beer trying to act like pancakes!
Hop BroThe last one is Arakawa Sunset IPA. It has a good balance of bitterness and citrus aroma, so it delivers that IPA punch while still being easy to drink.
MugiWow, even the name is cool! If it has a citrus aroma, that's the kind you want to drink while watching the sunset!
Hop BroThe food is strong too. There are dishes like hot roast chicken, fragrant pork tonteki, and Saitama vegetable salad, and the best part is that everything is built with beer pairing in mind.
MugiWhoa, that sounds like it has to be delicious! The moment you say built with beer pairing in mind, I stop thinking about chopsticks and start reaching for the mug!
Hop BroInside, there are counter seats, table seats, semi-private rooms, and sunken kotatsu seating, so it works for everything from drinking alone to comparative tastings. It can also be reserved for private events of about 50 people, making it perfect for local gatherings.
MugiAlright, I want to taste the three beers first! While feeling Kawaguchi's brewing culture, I'll have the roast chicken, and Hop-bro will probably end up drinking three glasses while explaining everything!
Hop BroYou caught me. But today, that's exactly right. If you taste the three standards side by side and add the kiln-fired dishes, you'll really get a clear sense of Kawaguchi Brewery's appeal.
MugiThen it's settled! I can't stop thinking I want to drink right now, and if I have a drink in Kawaguchi, I'm sure I'll be happy!
Kawaguchi Brewery is a brewpub in the east exit area of Kawaguchi Station. Its hallmark is that you can enjoy craft beer brewed in-house together with kiln-fired dishes and snacks, and it is known as a shop that carries Kawaguchi's "brewing culture" into the present day.
The representative house-brewed beers introduced by the shop are the fruity, easy-to-drink "Kawaguchi Onarimichi Ale," the "White Lily Weizen," which features the soft sweetness of wheat and a refreshing finish, and "Arakawa Sunset IPA," a beer with a well-balanced bitterness and citrus aroma. The lineup already conveys a sense of Kawaguchi from the names alone, and a side-by-side tasting makes the differences in style stand out clearly.
On the food side, the menu includes hot roast chicken, fragrant pork tonteki, and salads made with Saitama vegetables, all designed to pair well with beer. The interior is bright and offers counter seats, table seats, semi-private rooms, and sunken kotatsu seating, making it easy to use for anything from a quick solo drink to a relaxed tasting session with several people. It also accepts private reservations for around 50 people, giving it a strong presence as a casual local base for enjoying craft beer.
