Hop BroToday it's about Beach Culture Brewing in Oarai setting up at the March 7 aquarium event Utageyo ~SAKE Meguri Night~.
MugiWhoa! An alcohol event at an aquarium sounds like the best possible combo! But what happens to the shop hours?
Hop BroThat's the key point: the brewery shop will have shortened hours until 4:00 p.m. that day, so going early is the safe bet.
MugiGot it! So what are the event hours and ticket details?
Hop BroUtageyo runs from 5:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., with last admission at 7:00 p.m. The general 3,100 yen ticket comes with four tasting tickets, and the 3,900 yen ticket includes an appetizer plate.
MugiNice! Have they already announced the beer name and style from Beach Culture Brewing?
Hop BroThe beer name hasn't been announced yet, and the style is part of the day-of surprise, but the guide describes it as a light, easy-drinking flavor.
MugiWhat! When Hop Brother says "clean," you don't mean clean like detergent, right!?
Hop BroNo, that's different. It means there is little muddiness and the ingredients' flavor comes through smoothly, in other words a clean finish design.
MugiAll right, decided! I'll have an early drink on the first floor of Oarai Seaside Station and then head to Utageyo. Today's plan is basically just drinking!

In addition to serving beer at the taproom, the brewery also has a presence at events. This time, it is a day that shifts the stage from 'drinking at the shop' to 'meeting at the venue.'
