Hop BroNagano Brewery has introduced vendors for the Farm and Town Harvest Festival on Instagram. It sounds like a great gathering of beer and local makers.
MugiWhat! We can meet farm and food vendors as well as drink beer? That festival has far too many reasons to attend!
Hop BroExactly. Nagano Brewery, based in Ojojii, Nagano City, is known for its circular brewery model.
MugiWhat does that mean? Does the beer circle around forever? Is there an endless refill system for my glass?
Hop BroThat would be wonderful, but no. They use hops and fruit from their own farm, then reuse spent grain as fertilizer after brewing.
MugiWow! Things grown on the farm become beer, then return to the farm. It feels like drinking the whole landscape.
Hop BroExactly. Their range includes pale ales and IPAs, plus pilsners and stouts, and they are planning seasonal limited brews with local crops.
MugiI think of IPAs as bitter—does growing their own hops change that? Does the character of the hops come through?
Hop BroGreat question! Hops create aroma and bitterness, and their growing place and variety affect the result. In an IPA, hops lead the aroma.

Nagano Brewery has published an Instagram post titled “☕ Harvest Festival of Fields and Town | Vendor Introduction.” The post introduces vendors taking part in the event.
The festival brings together makers involved in agriculture, food and local community activities to celebrate the harvest season. Visitors will be able to enjoy Nagano Brewery’s beer while discovering food and products made by local producers.
Based in Ojoji, Nagano City, Nagano Brewery operates an integrated “circular brewery” that connects its farm and brewing facilities. Hops and fruit grown on its own farm are used as brewing ingredients, while spent malt is reused as fertilizer. The brewery combines the soil of a farm protected by generations of the same family with modern brewing techniques, pursuing beers that express the character of the local land.
Its lineup includes pale ale, pilsner, IPA and stout, while seasonal beers using crops from its own farm are also planned. This makes the harvest-focused event a natural setting for the brewery’s approach to local ingredients and community connections.
The source post confirms the vendor introduction, but details such as the event date and venue should be checked in the original post and images. Visitors should consult Nagano Brewery’s official Instagram and website for the latest information before attending.
