BEER BAR Awatachi in central Fukui will hold a special 5th-anniversary event called Run for Beer. The guest for the event is Komada, representative of Yellow Monkey Brewing (Kanagawa), the brewery that created Awatachi’s 5th-anniversary original beer.

Awatachi is a beer pub at AlohaZ・Hope 1F, 1-15-14 Chuo, Fukui City. Known for serving craft beers from breweries across Japan, it is a neighborhood spot where beer lovers can drop in casually. This event adds running to the bar’s usual beer-centered appeal.
