Hop BroA perfect autumn event is coming to Lake Yamanaka: a Halloween toast party. CinCin Yamanakako Brewery is holding its grand-opening celebration on October 31.
MugiWait, a grand opening in its third year? A three-years-in-the-making opening sounds like an event that was carefully aged!
Hop BroExactly. It takes place at CIN CIN BREWERY & TAPROOM in Yamanakako Village, Yamanashi, as a thank-you for all the support they have received.
MugiAnd regular-size beers are 500 yen per glass after 5 p.m.? I can spend my costume budget on beer instead!
Hop BroThey brew with Mt. Fuji spring water at an elevation of 1,001 meters. A highland fresh pour sounds like it comes with the crisp air included.
MugiThey have Hazy IPA and Hazy Double IPA, but what does hazy mean? Does the beer emerge from a fog machine?
Hop BroClose! It means an IPA with a cloudy look, brewed to preserve vivid hop character and a juicy, soft finish.
MugiOh! So a Hazy Double IPA has even more aroma and strength? My cheeks may turn red before my costume gets noticed!
Hop BroVery likely. They also pour Pale Ale, Saison, and Pilsner, including beers featuring seasonal local ingredients—great for a tasting flight.
MugiMusic, optional costumes, and brewery-fresh beer—amazing! On October 31, I really want to raise a glass at Yamanakako!
