Choryo Brew Park to Hold Sakura Week and Tsuyuhakaze Sake Tasting in April
Choryo Brew Park (CHORYO Craft Beer) in Koryo Town, Nara, has announced its April business schedule. Sakura Week runs from April 1 to 8, April 5 and 6 will feature a mostly outdoor Sakura Festival, and on the 25th there will be a tasting event themed around Tsuyuhakaze.
Hop BroNara's Choryo Brew Park is going pretty hard in April.
MugiWhat, you mean it's packed with April events? It already sounds fun before even going!
Hop BroFirst up is Sakura Week from 4/1 to 4/8. From 11:00 to 17:00, you can enjoy tap beer, sake, and food from any seat you like.
MugiWhat is that! Tap beer is the kind that comes out of a faucet, right? That sounds like I could drink forever, which is kind of scary!
Hop BroThat's exactly right. And since this is CHORYO Craft Beer's brew park, you get to enjoy the atmosphere of the brewery itself too, which is great.
MugiWhoa! And there's even a quiz event just for 4/1. Drinking beer and using my brain at the same time? My brain might start fermenting!
Hop BroThe weekend of 4/5 and 4/6 is the Sakura Festival, and it will be mostly outdoor service. Spreading out a leisure sheet on the lawn and having a drink while viewing the cherry blossoms is the best part.
MugiWait, food trucks will be there too!? That's less like a cherry blossom viewing and more like a spring festival!
Hop BroAnd on 4/25 there's a sake tasting session. It's themed around Tsuyuhakaze, Nara's sake-brewing rice, so you can compare different sakes and enjoy the differences in flavor.
MugiNice! Just having a spring drink on the grass is happiness enough, but being able to enjoy both cherry blossoms and alcohol is basically unfair.
Hop BroPlus it's just an 8-minute walk from Hashio Station and admission is free. With the spring scenery along the Takadagawa River, you'll want to take it slow with limited-edition beer and sake.
MugiIt's decided! Let's make a spring drinking plan. See the cherry blossoms, drink, eat, and head home pleasantly tipsy at the end!
April Business Schedule
Choryo Brew Park (Koryo Town, Kitakatsuragi District, Nara Prefecture) has announced its April business schedule, featuring "Sakura Week," "Sakura Festival," and "A Gathering to Enjoy Tsuyuhakaze: "Tasting Session Edition."" The post explains that on weekdays, tap beer, sake, and food can be enjoyed in a format close to regular service, while on weekends the venue switches to special outdoor-focused service centered on the lawn.
Sakura Week Runs from April 1 to 8
From Wednesday, April 1 to Wednesday, April 8, the venue will be open from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Food last order is at 4:00 p.m., and drink last order is at 4:30 p.m. During this period, guests can enjoy tap beer, sake, and food from any seat they like, making it a special setup suited to cherry blossom season.
On Wednesday, April 1 only, a collaboration project with Hashi Haro called "Choryo Quest" is also planned. There will also be a Choryo quiz event, and prizes will be prepared for those who answer all questions correctly.
The Weekend Brings the Sakura Festival
On Saturday, April 5 and Sunday, April 6, the "Sakura Festival" will be held. Doors open at 10:30 a.m., with sales starting at 11:00 a.m., and the operation will focus mainly on the outdoor area. In addition to tap beer, a special outdoor sake booth will also appear. Along with light food service, food trucks will also be present, making it a highlight that visitors can spread out a leisure sheet on the grass and enjoy flower viewing.
Merchandise will include Choryo's signature sake and goods, seasonal limited items, and products available only during this Sakura Week. On some days, local specialty products are also planned to be sold, creating an experience that offers not only drinking but also shopping. Live performances are also scheduled.
April 25: Tsuyuhakaze Tasting Session
On Saturday, April 25, a participatory seminar titled "A Gathering to Enjoy Tsuyuhakaze: "Tasting Session Edition"" will be held, centered on Tsuyuhakaze, a sake rice variety unique to Nara Prefecture. Applications are now being accepted for the tasting session edition, where participants can compare Japanese sakes made with Tsuyuhakaze and check how the flavor changes depending on differences in the rice and brewing process.
Although the post does not specify individual beer labels, it says that the spring Brew Park will offer many limited-edition sake and beers. With cherry blossoms along the Takadagawa River as a backdrop, it is the perfect season to enjoy a drink while spending time on the grass. It is also easy to access, just an 8-minute walk from Hashio Station, and admission is free, making it an easy place to stop by casually.
