Hiwasa Beer to Join Sept. 5 Takamatsu Event Featuring Four Female Brewers
Hiwasa Beer from Minami, Tokushima, will take part in “A Weekend to Enjoy Female Brewers’ Beers in Takamatsu” on Sept. 5 at Sunport Takamatsu. Four breweries from Kagawa, Tokushima, Okayama, and Hyogo will gather for a daytime beer-and-food event.
Hop BroThere’s an event in Takamatsu worth watching. On September 5 at Sunport Takamatsu, A Day with Women Brewers is happening, and Hiwasa Beer will be there.
MugiWhat! That sounds fun! And four women brewers all in one place? That’s the kind of lineup that makes me want to sample everything.
Hop BroExactly. You’ve got Fukushige Shokuhin Bakushu Jozobu from Kagawa, Hiwasa Beer joining from Tokushima, LAMP BEER STUDIO from Okayama, and 47forty-seven brewery from Hyogo.
MugiWow. But the article says the beer names aren’t announced yet, right? That somehow makes it even more tempting.
Hop BroThat’s part of the event vibe. The specific beers and styles are still a surprise, but Hiwasa Beer is known for using local ingredients like underground seawater, Awa bancha tea, and rice.
MugiHold on, underground seawater? If they just pour the ocean into a glass, my face is going to shrivel from the salt.
Hop BroNot like that. It’s more about showing local character than making it taste like straight saltwater, kind of a way to let Minami’s identity come through in the beer.
MugiWhat is that, that suddenly sounds so cool! And Hiwasa Beer brews inside a registered historic building, right? Even the beer has heritage.
Hop BroRight, they brew in a corner of the old shipping merchant building Taniya. The event runs from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., and with food booths in the daytime, this could turn into a dangerously good afternoon.
MugiDangerous in the best way. If beers that are hard to find in Kagawa are all there, that’s basically an out-of-prefecture brewery tour without leaving the venue.
Hop BroIt really is a rare chance to taste beers from women brewers across western Japan. I’m especially curious what kind of beer from a seaside town Hiwasa Beer will bring.
MugiThat’s it, I’m done for. My stomach and throat are already getting ready. September 5 in Takamatsu is daytime beer locked in. I absolutely want a glass now.
“A Weekend to Enjoy Female Brewers’ Beers in Takamatsu” will be held on Saturday, Sept. 5, from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the west passage of Symbol Tower in Sunport Takamatsu. The event will bring together beers made by four women brewers working across western Japan, along with food stalls.
The participating breweries are Fukushige Shokuhin Beer Brewery from Kagawa, Hiwasa Beer from Tokushima, LAMP BEER STUDIO from Okayama, and 47forty-seven brewery from Hyogo. The event description says the lineup includes beers that are not often available in Kagawa, making it a chance to taste rare selections in one place.
Hiwasa Beer is a craft brewery based in Minami, Tokushima. It brews inside Taniya, a former shipping merchant house designated as a registered tangible cultural property. According to the brewery’s official information, it uses local ingredients such as underground seawater, Awa bancha tea, and rice. For a brewery rooted in the coastal town of Minami, the Takamatsu appearance offers an opportunity to introduce its locally grounded beer to a wider audience.
The venue will also host booths from Sunport Marche, so visitors can pair beer with food. For beer fans who want to sample western Japan’s female-led breweries in one afternoon, Sept. 5 in Takamatsu is the date to note.
