Hop BroMugi-chan, Utsui Brewery in Shimonoseki, Yamaguchi Prefecture is holding its 3rd anniversary appreciation festival. I like that you can just drop by without a reservation.
MugiWait, I can just drop by!? No reservation required is such a relief. But is a brewery really open that freely even for an anniversary event?
Hop BroIt is. And you can use the shuttle for anything from just the outbound trip to a round trip, so it feels pretty reassuring even if you go by car. Once you get there, it instantly puts you in the mood to drink.
MugiThat’s too convenient! But what beers are there? Just hearing limited beer makes me restless!
Hop BroThe main highlight this time is KO?SUKE. It uses Simcoe and Galaxy, and it’s said to have a bitter, hoppy finish.
MugiSimcoe and Galaxy? I thought you were talking about outer space! Are hop names really that sci-fi?
Hop BroRight? Both are hops that tend to bring out strong aroma, often with citrus and tropical notes. So it should have a hoppy flavor, and bitterness fans will probably love it.
MugiWow, and they even have sweets for kids, so it’s great that it’s easy for families to go. If there are soft drinks too, people who don’t drink alcohol can enjoy it as well!
Hop BroExactly. Utsui Brewery is a community-rooted brewery that opened in June 2023, and under VACAN CRAFT it keeps working with local ingredients and hop cultivation. If you’re going by car, it’s a good idea to bring outdoor chairs along so you can relax at the venue.
MugiWow, just reading this makes me want a drink already! I want to arrive early and enjoy the anniversary event atmosphere with a glass of KO?SUKE in hand.
