Nara Brewing Announces KIGEN Booth at the End of May and a Two-Venue Event on June 6
Nara Brewing will set up a four-tap booth at the KIGEN Japanese Sake Fest, held from May 29 to 31 at the Nara Prefectural Convention Center. On June 6, it also plans to hold a TAPROOM OPEN DAY and a new-product unveiling event at HIGHBURY in the Kanto region.
Hop BroNara Brewing has a lot going on from the end of May. First up, it’s setting up a four-tap booth at the KIGEN Japanese Sake Fest, and that alone feels like enough to fill up a whole weekend.
MugiWait, even just four taps sounds incredibly tempting! But beer at a sake festival? That’s way too much information and my brain is already bubbling over!
Hop BroThe venue is the Nara Prefectural Convention Center, where you can sample about 250 labels from 57 groups. Nara Brewing was founded in 2017 and carefully makes a wide range of beer styles, so it should stand out even among that lineup.
MugiOhhh, a wide range of beer styles sounds handy, but does that mean they can make anything? I only know IPA!
Hop BroBasically, it means they can go from hop-forward IPAs to crisp styles and maltier beers. They change the expression by combining hop aroma, malt sweetness, and fermentation character, so even the same brewery can show a completely different face.
MugiWhat do you mean by fermentation character? That suddenly sounds human! Do beers get shy or angry?
Hop BroNo, no. On June 6, there’s an OPEN DAY at the Nara taproom, with limited-quantity lunch sets and snacks, and you can even bring your own food. Brewery tours are also available by reservation, so you can enjoy the whole site experience.
MugiWait, outside food is welcome? That’s amazing! So I could bring my own lunch and pair it with the beer.
Hop BroAnd on that same June 6, there’s also a new-product unveiling event at HIGHBURY in the Kanto region. Brewery head brewer Yasunori Namioka will be there too, so it’s a chance to hear directly from the maker.
MugiWow, I want to know about next week’s release too, and now I want to follow them both in Nara and in Kanto! I should probably get my palate ready for beer right now.
