Aoshima Craft to Exhibit at the Miyazaki Craft Beer Expo and Midsummer Meat Festival
Aoshima Craft said on Instagram that, due to a typhoon, the event dates for the Miyazaki Craft Beer Expo & Midsummer Meat Festival have been changed to August 11-16. The Miyazaki City brewery will pour several of its signature beers at Amu Hiroba.
Hop BroMiyazaki is looking seriously good right now. Aoshima Craft is pouring at the Miyazaki Craft Beer Expo & Midsummer Meat Festival in Amu Hiroba from August 11 to 16.
MugiWhat! Meat and beer is already a championship-level combo! But wasn’t it supposed to start on August 7?
Hop BroThat changed because of the weather. Typhoon schedule change pushed it from the original August 7-16 run to August 11-16, and Aoshima Craft will join on the updated dates.
MugiGot it. So what kind of brewery is Aoshima Craft? The name already sounds like sea breeze in a glass.
Hop BroThey brew in Aoshima, Miyazaki, and their whole concept is Miyazaki-style craft ale. The lineup is built around local nature and ingredients, especially Surf Ale, Turf Ale, and Jidori Ale.
MugiJidori Ale is such a powerful name! Wait, is this a beer where chicken flavor just flap-flap-flaps into the mug? My brain turned into a yakitori stand.
Hop BroNo poultry dive-bombs here. Jidori Ale uses local hebesu citrus, Surf Ale is crisp and refreshing, and Turf Ale stands out for its Earl Grey aroma.
MugiOhh! But Botanical Ale uses wasabi and sansho, right? What’s an adjunct? It sounds like the condiment department crashed the brewers’ meeting.
Hop BroAn adjunct is anything used beyond malt and hops to shape character. That’s how they can build wasabi and sansho notes into Botanical Ale, and even serve a Salt Lager made with Tsumoto Mitsuhiro that sounds perfect with meat. Add DJs and music, and now I want a glass.
MugiThat settles it. Aoshima Craft tasting flight with a pile of meat and live music sounds like drinking the whole Miyazaki summer at once. My throat is already on its way to the venue!
Aoshima Craft announced on Instagram on August 7 that, because of typhoon-related disruption, the event period for the Miyazaki Craft Beer Expo & Midsummer Meat Festival has been changed from August 7-16 to August 11-16. The brewery will take part at Amu Hiroba in Miyazaki City.
