September schedule


Baird Beer Gofukucho Taproom in Aoi-ku, Shizuoka, has posted its September schedule on Instagram. The shop will be closed on the 2nd and 4th Mondays, so it is worth checking the calendar before planning a visit.

Beers starting Sept. 1


From September 1, three seasonal Baird Beer releases will be available: Brewer's Nightmare Rye IPA, Season Off Beer, and Saison Sayuri. The lineup offers three different expressions, making it an appealing stop for drinkers who enjoy comparing styles side by side.

A classic taproom setting in Gofukucho


Gofukucho Taproom is Baird's second sibling taproom after Hakuba and sits in the busy Gofukucho district. The space has a warm, relaxed feel with wood and brick throughout. It keeps 16 taps of draft Baird Beer on hand, while seasonal beers that are not served on draft are stocked in the display fridge as bottle-conditioned beer.

The kitchen is known for its house-made food, so this is a place to settle in and focus on beer. The taproom is non-smoking, which makes it easy to enjoy both the aroma and the flavor of the beer at a slower pace.
