MugiWhat?! Beer made with bread crusts? What is that? That's such an idea, I'm seriously curious!
Hop BroAnd it's not just unusual for the sake of being unusual. They use upcycled brewing, replacing part of the malt with ingredients that go unused by the bakery. Their official slogan is "double craft from a boulangerie and a brewery."
MugiHuh! But is malt replacement really okay for the taste? It kind of feels like a lab experiment, and I'm nervous!
Hop BroThat's the interesting part. It's not just a gimmick; it's an idea that gives food loss new value. It feels like they're turning the cycle of materials born in Ebina directly into a glass.
MugiAnd the venue has free admission! Alcohol, gourmet food, festival games, and about 30 booths all in one place? That's basically a festival already!
Hop BroWhat's more, the hours are 3:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Friday, May 1, 11:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Saturday the 2nd, and 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Sunday the 3rd. Because it's at Ebina Central Park, directly connected to the station, it's easy to drop by too.
MugiThat's so convenient! Families can feel at ease too, and beer fans or people there for the food will all have something to enjoy.
Hop BroExactly. They have craft beer, carefully selected sour drinks, and famous foods from all over, so you can enjoy the lively Golden Week atmosphere just as it is. The local brand should stand out too.
MugiJust hearing about it is making me thirsty! I want to try tasting a drink from Ebina side by side at the venue.
Hop BroRight? This is the kind of place where you want to savor the story behind the ingredients on site. When it's over, let's make a toast together with that bread-crust beer.
MugiI'm in! If we're starting Golden Week with beer in hand, this feels like the place to do it!
