Hideji Beer will hold the Autumn Mukabaki Beer Festa 2026 on September 26 and 27 at its Mukabaki brewery in Nobeoka, Miyazaki. The event takes place at a riverside venue beneath Mount Mukabaki, offering a scenic setting for tasting craft beer close to the brewery where it is made.
Around 30 beers will be served, combining Hideji Beer’s own range with guest beers from breweries across Japan.
