MugiWhat! Craft beer with Japanese food? Does it suit sashimi too?
Hop BroIt really can. Chef Shirahase will prepare seasonal local ingredients, including fresh fish and vegetables.
MugiWow! Seafood and beer sounds like a grown-up feast!
Hop BroThe key is matching beer aroma, bitterness, and acidity with the dish. That is pairing synergy in action.
MugiWhat does that mean? Like beer and fish suddenly linking arms?
Hop BroPretty much! Bright acidity can lift a fish dish, while aromatic beer can highlight vegetable sweetness.
MugiA beer for every course? My mouth is going to become a full-on flavor festival!
Hop BroThere will be core beers and seasonal releases. In The Door calls its craft beer “local beer” with pride, valuing its connection to the community.
MugiKobe-brewed beer with local ingredients... that gives it a true sense of place.

IN THA DOOR BREWING, a brewery based in Chuo Ward, Kobe, will host a Japanese cuisine and craft beer pairing event on Sunday, November 8, 2026, from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. The event will take place at the brewery.
The food will be prepared by Shirohase, the chef of the Japanese restaurant “季と菜と魚と さんたか.” Using seasonal fish and locally sourced vegetables, the chef will create dishes designed to highlight the character of each ingredient. The pairing will explore how delicate seafood flavors and vegetable notes interact with the aroma, bitterness, and acidity of craft beer.
The beer lineup will include both the brewery’s regular beers and seasonal releases. Each dish will be served with a beer selected to complement it, offering guests an opportunity to experience the range of flavors that emerges when Japanese cuisine is paired with local beer rather than enjoyed on its own.
