Hop BroOhi Racecourse's Umaile Square is hosting Santa Anita Week from July 20 to 24. STAR LIGHT pouring three craft beers there is a pretty big deal
MugiWhat? Three craft beers at a racecourse? My excitement is about to sprint before the horses do!
Hop BroAnd they're from STAR LIGHT, the familiar beer pub inside the venue. Their STAR LIGHT CRAFT BEER lineup lets you compare a Kolsch, a stout, and a golden ale
MugiWhoa, but what is Kolsch? That sounds less like beer and more like a special move with dramatic commentary!
Hop BroKolsch is a lighter style with a clean dry finish and restrained bitterness. It goes down smoothly, so it's great as a first pint
MugiOkay, I can handle that! Then what about the golden ale? Even the name sounds shiny
Hop BroThat one uses deep ocean water from Izu and is an ale fermentation beer with a fruity aroma. It sounds technical, but really it just means bright and easy to enjoy
MugiNo way! So the science-class phrase basically means fruity and bright? I could absolutely pass that quiz
Hop BroExactly. Then the stout brings a toasty roasted character from dark malt, and during the event EL CAMION is also serving craft beer cocktails and even mint juleps, so the whole place leans hard into the American vibe
MugiI'm done for, I want to conquer the three-pack now. Race before or after, we're clearly stopping by for beer and cocktails
STAR LIGHT, the beer pub in Umile Square at Ohi Racecourse, is one of the easiest places to enjoy craft beer while taking in the races. From Monday, July 20 through Friday, July 24, the venue hosts Santa Anita Week, a five-day tie-up with Santa Anita Park in the U.S., and the whole racecourse takes on an American feel.
The house beer is STAR LIGHT CRAFT BEER, available in three styles: Kölsch, Stout, and Golden Ale. The official shop also sells the beers as a three-bottle set. Golden Ale uses Izu deep ocean water and leans fruity, Kölsch is dry with low bitterness, and Stout brings roasted malt aroma and a smooth black-beer finish.
During the event, Umile Square also welcomes EL CAMION, which serves craft beer and beer cocktails. Mint Julep, the Kentucky Derby’s official cocktail, is also on sale, making the area a practical stop for both food and drinks between races.
For beer fans, STAR LIGHT pairs the open-air atmosphere of the racecourse with a lineup that is easy to compare and easy to drink alongside the American food stalls nearby.
