Hiwasa Beer to Open at Three Events in Okayama and Tokushima in March; Business Info Also Released
Hiwasa Beer, the craft brewery in Minami Town, Tokushima, announced its March business schedule and event appearances in a post made at 23:23 on March 3, 2026. Along with a change in how it operates at its base location, the brewery also announced participation in one event in Okayama and two in Tokushima.
Hop BroMarch at Hiwasa Beer is really busy! They announced base-location service at Taniya along with three event appearances: one in Okayama and two in Tokushima.
MugiWhat!? Three events all at once!? Where and when are they?
Hop BroFirst is the "Agricultural Heritage Marche in Okayama" in Okayama City, on March 6 from 11:00 to 17:00 and March 7 from 10:00 to 16:00. Next is the "Tokushima Marathon" at Aibahama Park in Tokushima City on March 22 from 10:00 to 18:00, and the last is the "Tokushima Marche" at Shinmachi Boardwalk on March 29 from 9:00 to 14:00.
MugiOh, I see! So what is Taniya usually like? Is it the kind of place where you can really drink?
Hop BroHere's the thing: Taniya service mainly centers on "quick drinks" from two taps and bottle beer sales. There's basically no food, outside food is welcome, and even people who just want to look around are okay. It's really welcoming!
MugiTwo taps? What does that mean? Like two faucets?
Hop BroPretty much! A tap is the spout used to pour keg beer. So it means they can serve two kinds of draft beer at the same time. The post didn't name specific beers, but Hiwasa Beer is known for making the most of local ingredients, and its style really shines with southern Tokushima character like underground seawater and Awa Bancha tea.
MugiThat's so romantic! You can drink at the registered tangible cultural property Taniya and meet their bottle beer at events too. Makes me want to travel!
Hop BroIt's great to see a small brewery balancing base-location service and off-site events. Rooted in the local community while reaching outward, that's Hiwasa Beer through and through.
MugiAll right, decision made! I'll follow Hiwasa Beer all through March, have a quick drink at Taniya, secure some bottles at the events, and we'll toast together!
According to the March information Hiwasa Beer posted on Instagram, the brewery will run its base location and off-site events both inside and outside the prefecture this month.

Hiwasa Beer is a small brewery that brews in Hiwasa, Minami Town, Tokushima Prefecture. On its official website, it says it makes beer from a corner of the former coastal wholesaler's house "Taniya," a registered tangible cultural property, while using ingredients from southern Tokushima such as underground seawater and Awa Bancha tea. This March announcement also seems to reflect the brewery's usual style of balancing local base operations with creating points of contact at event sites.
