NAGANO BREWERY to Host Second 'Hata de Kanpai' Farm Event on August 14
NAGANO BREWERY in Nagano City will hold the second edition of its farm-side event 'Hata de Kanpai' on Friday, August 14, offering food and craft beer in a setting overlooking the city.
Hop BroI want to start with the second Kampai in the Field from NAGANO BREWERY. It’s happening on Friday, August 14, 2026, from 11:00 to 14:00.
MugiWhat! Kampai in the Field means actually drinking beer out in a farm field? That title already sounds like it won summer.
Hop BroExactly. The venue is their farm in Ojoji, Nagano, and you get food and craft beer with a full city view over Nagano. It’s close to Zenkoji, but the mood is pure farmland.
MugiWait, so NAGANO BREWERY isn’t just a brewery? They actually have their own farm too? That’s unfairly cool.
Hop BroThat’s the fun part. They use their own hops and fruit, with a farm-brewery approach that keeps agriculture and brewing really close together.
MugiWhat is that! Farm-brewery approach sounds like you just threw a pro term at me. My brain is dry-hopping itself.
Hop BroPut simply, it means farm-grown ingredients go straight into the brewing story. They haven’t announced a specific beer name or style this time, so the main draw is tasting the field itself along with the beer.
MugiOhhh, I get it. It’s not just a drinking picnic; it’s the view, the breeze, and even the feeling of the soil. The beer basically turned into a five-senses event.
Hop BroAnd the first one was held on July 19, so this is a continuing series rather than a one-off. That really fits NAGANO BREWERY’s identity.
MugiThen on August 14 we seriously need a breeze-side toast in that field! Food and craft beer at lunchtime sounds dangerously perfect.
Hop BroSame here. So close to the city, yet still giving a summer field beer experience like that, it’s going to stick in people’s memory. I’m already thirsty thinking about the first pour.
MugiI’m ready for a practice toast before the real one. Then on the day itself, we can graduate to Kampai in the Field for real!
NAGANO BREWERY, based in Ojoji, Nagano City, is building its craft beer program around its own farm, using crops such as hops and fruit trees in its brewing. On its official website, the brewery also highlights regular beers, seasonal releases, and taproom service, showing how closely agriculture and brewing are linked in its operation.
The newly announced event is the second edition of 'Hata de Kanpai,' held on the brewery's farm. According to the Instagram post, guests can enjoy food and craft beer while feeling the breeze in the field and looking out over Nagano City. The event is scheduled for Friday, August 14, 2026, from 11:00 to 14:00.
The brewery had already held the first edition on July 19, making this a continuing series rather than a one-off promotion. What stands out is that the experience is framed not only around beer, but also around the landscape and atmosphere of the farm itself. That approach fits NAGANO BREWERY's identity well, especially given its location in a part of Nagano City where the brewery can connect visitors directly to the field.
By placing the farm at the center of the event, NAGANO BREWERY is clearly reinforcing its identity as a brewery that ties brewing to local agriculture and place-based experiences.
