MugiWhoa! Nutori Brewing is that place with the tasty food too, right? Just the name "Yokote-Ugo Beer Gathering" already sounds powerful!
Hop BroThe main highlight this time is the collaboration beer tapped from a joint brew made on site by Nutori's representative and Ugo Beer's representative. In Kanto, that's a pretty rare treat!
MugiWhat? You said "strain" or something, but my brain is having a full-on what-is-a-strain problem!
Hop BroIn short, it refers to the yeast strain or other lineage that gives a beer its character, and in this case it means you can taste Ugo Beer's identity right there on site.
MugiWow! And they're using hops from Mito, the Yokote hop farmer, too, right? A first beer made with Yokote hops sounds impossible not to be curious about!
Hop BroExactly. The hop-derived aroma looks set to take center stage, so you can also look forward to a kind of single-hop-style enjoyment.
MugiI heard the food is all Akita too, not just the beer! "Nutori Akita Meshi" - that name already sounds like a win, doesn't it?
Hop BroAlong with iburigakko shipped straight from Ugo, on the 22nd guest chef Honma will join in with outdoor cooking and is expected to serve sausages, hot dogs, and chicken steak.
MugiSo the beers are the Ugo Beer collaboration beer and the Yokote hop beer, and the style is basically a surprise on the day, right?
Hop BroThat's exactly right. Having the brewers and farmers there makes it a great event where you can drink the background story too.
MugiI've decided. I'll go sometime between March 20 and 22 and have my first drink there! Hop bro, you're definitely drinking too, right!
Nutori Brewing (Beer Diner Nutori) in Kawaguchi City, Saitama Prefecture, announced the event on Instagram: "". The event will run for three days from March 20 to 22.
According to the post, this is an expanded version of the annual "Ugo to Nutori" event, with Akita's southern elements brought more to the forefront this time. The highlight is the tapping of the collaboration beer brewed together at Ugo Beer in Akita by Nutori's representative and Ugo Beer's representative. It will be a chance to enjoy, in the Kanto region, a Ugo Beer release that is usually hard to find there.
In addition, a beer made with "Yokote hops" grown by Mito, a hop farmer in Yokote, is also scheduled to be tapped. This is said to be Nutori's first attempt at using Yokote hops, making it a project where visitors can enjoy not only the flavor but also the background of the ingredients. On the food side, the venue plans to offer "Nutori Akita Meshi," with Akita ingredients such as iburigakko shipped directly from Ugo and arranged in Nutori's style.
During the event, Ugo Beer representative Saito and Yokote hop farmer Mito are expected to be present. In addition, on the 22nd, guest chef Honma, who is also close with the Ugo side, will handle outdoor cooking and is expected to serve sausages, hot dogs, and chicken steak.
According to its official website, Nutori Brewing is a brewery that has continued small-scale tank brewing in a 50-year-old apartment building since February 2021. Centered on house-made beer and "nourishing meals," the shop's concept makes events like this one, where producers, brewers, and drinkers come together, a strong reflection of its character.
