Hop BroTokamachi's Jokun booth news is pretty exciting, isn't it? They're heading to "The Beer Exhibition" in Kashiwazaki City from May 8 to 10.
MugiWait, an event in Kashiwazaki? Just the fact that they're coming all the way from Tokamachi makes it exciting!
Hop BroAnd they're bringing a beer brewed with Koshinokhomare sake lees. Since sake lees come from the sake-making process, they can add a fuller aroma to the beer.
MugiSake lees? You mean the kind used as a side dish with drinks? I can't even imagine that turning into beer!
Hop BroExactly, that's what makes it interesting. When beer includes ingredients derived from sake brewing, it tends to bring out the gentle rice-like softness and a lightly sweet aroma.
MugiWow! It has this Japanese craft feel to it, so it sounds like it would appeal to sake lovers too!
Hop BroIt looks like Jokun is exhibiting again this year after last year, so they're clearly comfortable with events. They're also taking part in Spring Kuranomi on April 18.
MugiWhat a lineup! Koshinokhomare BAR plus spring chirashi sushi, and it's the kind of event where your stomach is happy before you even start drinking!
Hop BroAnd with 2 hours of all-you-can-drink for 2,000 yen, it's a pretty straightforwardly strong event deal. You can also see the flow of Tokamachi's brewpubs heading out to sake brewery events and various festivals.
MugiBooths all over the place heading into early summer? I want to follow them around! Now I feel like going out for a Jokun beer today!
The brewpub jokun-brewing/Craft Beer Jokun, located in Honcho, Tokamachi City, Niigata Prefecture, posted a roundup on Instagram announcing its upcoming event appearances.
The first item that stands out in the post is "The Beer Exhibition," held in Kashiwazaki City from May 8 to 10. Jokun says it will be exhibiting again this year, following last year, and will bring a beer brewed with Koshinokhomare sake lees. It is a chance to taste a drink made with ingredients derived from sake brewing at the event venue.
It also announced that on Saturday, April 18, it will take part in "Spring Kuranomi" at Hara Sake Brewery's direct sales shop, "Shusaikan." There, Koshinokhomare BAR (2-hour all-you-can-drink, 2,000 yen), spring chirashi sushi (limited quantity, 1,200 yen), along with food and sweets, will be available. It shows an approach of stepping out from the Tokamachi brewery and expanding into sake brewery events and craft beer festivals.
In addition, there are booths scheduled for a number of locations through early summer, including "Night, Tacos, and Jokun @ Tanaka Kumakichi" on April 28 in Tokamachi City, "Yuzawa Marche" on May 17 in Yuzawa Town, "Craft beer house Takasaki'26" and "Chitobia'26" on May 23 and 24, and "Sasayama Jomon Market" on June 7. As a local brewpub in Tokamachi, the movement of touring around with its own brewed beer is likely to continue for a while.
