Minami Alps Beer Delivers Yamanashi-Inspired Biashan to Kawaguchiko Travel Station
Minami Alps Beer has announced the delivery of its Biashan craft beers to Kawaguchiko Tabi no Eki in Fujikawaguchiko, Yamanashi. The lineup features local hinoki cypress, yuzu, and hops, highlighting ingredients from across the prefecture.
Hop BroHere’s a great beer-travel update: Minami Alps Beer has delivered its Yamanashi-inspired “Beer-chan” to Kawaguchiko Tabi no Eki.
MugiWhoa, you can grab it during a drive? Kawaguchiko Tabi no Eki sounds perfect for souvenir hunting!
Hop BroExactly. Beer-chan comes in three distinct varieties, featuring hinoki cypress, yuzu, and hops from Yamanashi.
MugiBeer with hinoki cypress?! If it smells like a bathhouse, I might get relaxed mid-sip! What is a woodsy beer aroma like?
Hop BroHinoki can lend a forest-like aromatic character. Brewers may infuse its aroma during steps such as wort boiling, creating a walk-in-the-woods feel.
MugiWort? Is that a baby beer? What even is wort?
Hop BroThat’s surprisingly close! Wort is the sweet liquid made by extracting sugars from malt; yeast then turns it into the beer we know.
MugiOoh! The yuzu Beer-chan sounds like it would have a bright citrus aroma and be super refreshing.
Hop BroAnd there’s a hop-forward version, too. Hinoki, yuzu, and hops make this an aroma tasting flight waiting to happen.
MugiBut I want to know which one is bitter and how strong it is! Are the styles and ABVs unlisted?
Hop BroThey are. The announcement does not list styles, ABVs, or prices, so it’s best to check official stock details before heading over.
MugiFuji views, Lake Kawaguchi, and Yamanashi aromas to take home—amazing! Let’s drink the trip’s memories, Hop-bro!
Hop BroI’m in! If we spot Beer-chan at Kawaguchiko Tabi no Eki, we’ll line up all three and smell them first. Cheers to Yamanashi ingredients!
Minami Alps Beer, based in Minami-Alps City, Yamanashi, announced on September 16, 2026 that it had delivered its craft beer series “Biashan” to Kawaguchiko Tabi no Eki in Fujikawaguchiko.
The delivery includes three beers made with locally associated ingredients: hinoki cypress from Hirabayashi in Fujikawa Town, yuzu from Fujikawa Town, and hops. Together, the beers focus on the character of Yamanashi and offer a way to experience the region through aroma and flavor.
The hinoki beer is expected to bring a distinctive woody impression, while the yuzu beer should offer a bright citrus character. A hop-forward beer completes the lineup, giving drinkers three different aromatic profiles to explore. The Instagram announcement did not provide details such as beer styles, alcohol content, or prices.
Kawaguchiko Tabi no Eki is a convenient stop for visitors exploring Mount Fuji and the area around Lake Kawaguchi. For travelers looking for regional souvenirs, these locally inspired craft beers offer an appealing alternative to conventional gifts.
Minami Alps Beer operates in Minami-Alps City and presents Biashan as part of its efforts to connect beer with the character of Yamanashi. This delivery also suggests a broader focus on ingredients from across the prefecture, rather than limiting the brewery’s identity to a single locality.
Customers should check with Kawaguchiko Tabi no Eki or Minami Alps Beer for current stock, availability, and detailed product specifications.
