FARMENTRY, a microbrewery from Kashihara, Nara
Daikanyama craft beer bar Bibibi. regularly introduces breweries currently represented on its taps, together with the stories behind their beers. This feature focuses on FARMENTRY, a microbrewery established in Kashihara, Nara, in 2024.
Kashihara is known for its concentration of ancient archaeological sites. FARMENTRY is located near Kashihara Jingu, a shrine associated with the traditional account of Emperor Jimmu’s accession. The brewery’s setting places contemporary craft brewing alongside the region’s deep historical character.
The name FARMENTRY combines “FARM” and “ENTRY,” expressing the idea of an entry point into agriculture. The brewery’s brewing philosophy is closely connected to local agriculture, and it places particular importance on using local yeast to express flavors distinctive to the area.
FARMENTRY also took an unusually hands-on approach to building its brewery. Rather than leaving the project entirely to specialist contractors, the team negotiated directly with overseas manufacturers and worked through the design, piping, and installation of the equipment themselves. That attention to detail has helped the young brewery attract growing interest among beer enthusiasts.
The feature does not disclose individual beer names, styles, or specifications. Guests should check with Bibibi. for the current tap list and availability when visiting.
