MugiOkara is the part left after making tofu, right? And it becomes a donut? Tell me what okara is!
Hop BroIt is a soybean ingredient with nutrients and fiber, often used in baking. Fresh from the fryer, it could have a light, fluffy texture.
MugiWow! Fresh donuts alongside craft beer sounds perfect. The venue is Oirase Roman Park roadside station, right?
Hop BroYes—September 19 and 20, 2026, with free entry. Local breweries, plus cider and sake, will gather there too.
MugiWhat kind of beer does Oirase Brewery make? For donuts, I want a beginner-friendly beer recommendation!
Hop BroSince 1997, they have brewed with Oirase spring water, groundwater from Hakkoda. Water helps shape a beer's character.
MugiIs brewing water really that important? I thought hops were the main flavor! Water is a star too?
Hop BroBeer is mostly water, so it affects the texture and balance. Their crisp classic pilsner could refresh your palate after a sweet donut.
MugiI want to try a fruity wheat beer and donuts! With dark lager and amber lager too, I need both festival days!
Hop BroIt is an autumn celebration of Towada food and Oirase beer. On September 19 and 20, you'll want to chase fresh donuts and cheers!
MugiDeal! Let's bite into okara donuts and compare lots of beers. Cheers in Towada!
A local Towada treat for the beer festival
Oirase Brewery has announced Shikisai-kan as a featured vendor for “OIRASE BEER Oktoberfest 2026.” Located in Towada, Aomori, the tourism and local-products center will prepare and sell okara doughnuts made with locally produced okara. The doughnuts will be fried on site, allowing visitors to enjoy them fresh from the fryer.
OIRASE BEER Oktoberfest 2026 will take place on September 19 and 20 at Roadside Station Oirase Roman Park. The event will bring together craft breweries from Aomori, along with cider, sake, restaurants, food trucks, and live entertainment. Admission is free. The festival runs from 10:00 to 18:00 on September 19 and from 10:00 to 16:30 on September 20.
Beer festival food often leans toward salty, savory dishes, but freshly fried okara doughnuts offer a different kind of pairing. Their light texture makes them suitable as a snack between beers or as a sweet finish after a meal. Visitors can enjoy them alongside the beers and food available throughout the venue.
Beer shaped by Oirase’s natural water
Based in Oku-se, Towada, Oirase Brewery has been producing Oirase Beer since 1997. The brewery uses spring water from the Oirase area, fed by the Hakkoda mountain region, and presents its beers as a way to experience Aomori’s natural surroundings.
Its lineup includes a crisp Pilsner, a dark lager with a clean finish, a rich Amber Lager, and a fruity Weizen. The festival offers an opportunity to explore these beers while also discovering local food from Towada and the wider Aomori region.
For beer lovers planning an autumn visit to Towada, the combination of Oirase Beer and Shikisai-kan’s freshly made okara doughnuts provides an approachable way to enjoy the area’s brewing culture and local flavors in one place.
