North Island Beer to hold 17th anniversary celebration at EBRI on Aug. 16
North Island Beer will hold its 17th anniversary celebration at EBRI in Ebetsu, Hokkaido, on Aug. 16. The event pairs beer with DJ sets and local culture, and the brewery has also announced advance ticket sales.
Hop BroI want to talk about North Island Beer’s 17th anniversary festival today. It’s happening on August 16 at EBRI in Ebetsu, and it sounds like a mix of beer, music, and local culture.
MugiWhat! EBRI in Ebetsu... that cool brick-style spot, right? An anniversary beer party there already sounds delicious somehow!
Hop BroExactly. It’s a 5-minute walk from JR Nopporo Station, and it runs from 11:00 to 18:00. Plus, advance tickets are 500 yen cheaper, which is a strong argument on its own.
MugiWhoa, and I heard the first 50 all-you-can-drink tickets are already sold out? That popularity level is basically airborne!
Hop BroThat says a lot, right? And this year they’ve also got a full DJ program with Brick Party and BREW THE GROOVE, with music meant for both adults and kids to enjoy.
MugiWhat is that! Beer with DJs means holding a glass and vibing at the same time? My excitement has already arrived before I have.
Hop BroThat’s the thing. North Island Beer is good at showing the whole region, not just pouring drinks. Their weizen brewing with Ebetsu-grown wheat is a great example of putting local character into the beer.
MugiHang on, weizen brewing suddenly sounds like a wizard spell. Explain it in a way my future drinking self can understand!
Hop BroThink of it as a soft, easy-drinking wheat beer style. They also make limited beers with Hokkaido hops, so you really get the flavor of local ingredients, which feels very North Island.
MugiOhhh, so it’s not just an event, it’s more like a whole region in a glass. That makes me want to go for real.
Hop BroThat’s exactly it. A day where you celebrate 17 years of brewing with music and beer feels like Beer is Art in the best possible way.
MugiThen it’s settled, see you August 16! I want to drink North Island Beer with music in the background and make sure I try both the weizen and the limited releases.
17th anniversary event in Ebetsu
North Island Beer will hold its 17th Anniversary Celebration on August 16 at EBRI, a renovated brick-factory complex in Ebetsu, Hokkaido, about a five-minute walk from JR Nopporo Station. The event runs from 11:00 to 18:00. In its Instagram post, the brewery also noted that advance tickets are available with a 500-yen discount, and that paper tickets can be purchased at the Ebetsu brewery, Beer Bar North Island, Cocomocha, and EBRI. The all-you-can-drink ticket limited to the first 50 guests has already sold out.
Music joins the beer lineup
The post highlights the fourth anniversary act, Brick Party & BREW THE GROOVE. Brick Party contributors DJ hongkong and DJ KEITARO will perform, joined by kai, Matsuyuka, and Naoking from BREW THE GROOVE, a regular event series at Beer Bar North Island. The brewery says the selection is designed to be enjoyable for both adults and children, making the celebration a blend of beer and music rather than a beer-only gathering.
A brewery rooted in Hokkaido
North Island Beer was started by brewers who trained in Canada, and the company describes its philosophy as “Beer is Art.” Its lineup includes five regular beers plus limited and seasonal releases. The brewery also works with local ingredients, including Ebetsu-grown wheat for its Weizen and Hokkaido hops for limited beers. This anniversary event reflects both the brewery’s craft focus and its connection to the Ebetsu community.
