Nagano Brewery has shared an Instagram post about “Harvest Festival of Fields and Town 2026.” Titled “Harvest Festival of Fields and Town | Performer Introduction vol. 1,” the post appears to launch a series introducing the people or groups scheduled to take part in the event.

The post confirms the event name and that this is the first installment of the performer announcements. However, the event date, venue, full lineup, and details about beer or food offerings have not been disclosed in the available information. Those interested in attending should check Nagano Brewery’s official Instagram and website for further announcements.

A brewery connecting agriculture and beer

Nagano Brewery is based in Ojoji, Nagano City, about an eight-minute walk from Zenkoji Temple. The brewery operates as a farm-integrated “circulating brewery,” using hops and fruit grown on its own farm as brewing ingredients.

Spent malt from brewing is reused as fertilizer for the farm, creating a production cycle that connects agriculture and brewing. The brewery aims to express the terroir of Ojoji through beers shaped by the area’s soil, climate, landscape, and locally grown produce.

Its regular lineup includes a balanced pale ale, a crisp pilsner with refreshing hop aroma and bitterness, a hop-forward IPA, and a stout with rich roasted-malt character. Seasonal beers using crops from the brewery’s farm are also being planned.

The upcoming festival is expected to bring together agriculture, the local community, music, and craft beer. Further performer announcements and the release of the event schedule will reveal how Nagano Brewery plans to shape this celebration of the harvest.
