Yatsugatake Brewery to Set Up for Three Days at the Kofu Shingen-ko Festival, Serving Touchdown
From April 3 to 5, Yatsugatake Brewery will set up at the Kofu Shingen-ko Festival and serve its flagship brand, "Yatsugatake Beer Touchdown." On the 3rd, it will operate from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., bringing draft beer from the brewery in Hokuto, Yamanashi to a local event.
Hop BroDid you hear? Yatsugatake Brewery is setting up a booth. From April 3 to 5 at the Kofu Shingen-ko Festival, they're pouring their flagship, "Yatsugatake Beer Touchdown."
MugiWhoa! Touchdown at a festival? Even the name sounds like a satisfying win! What kind of beer is it?
Hop BroTouchdown is a brand brewed in Kiyosato, Hokuto City, and its hallmark is being lager-centered. It's crisp and easy to drink, so it's a good fit for festival stalls.
MugiI keep hearing about lagers, but is that the kind that ferments slowly at low temperatures? If you say much more, my brain's going to turn into foam!
Hop BroThat's right. It doesn't produce many off-flavors, so it tends to finish clean and clear. That's why, even at a place like the Shingen-ko Festival where you're walking around, you keep reaching for the next glass.
MugiWow! And it's a three-day-only booth, right? Limited-time stuff makes me feel like I have to drink it right away!
Hop BroAnd on the 3rd, it's open from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Since it's only in the evening on the first day, people stopping by after work should definitely check it out. Apparently Shun, Futami, and Shin will be there.
MugiWait, the brewers themselves will pour it? That's less a festival and more like a tiny pilgrimage!
Hop BroExactly. And since it's the brewing arm run by Kiyosato's 'Moegi no Mura,' it's like bringing the flavor of the foot of Yatsugatake all the way to Kofu. Their regular Kiyosato Lager has a proven track record too, so expectations are high.
MugiJust imagining it makes me want one! A drink at festival night is definitely going to be good.
Hop BroRight? Paired with stall food, that festival pint should shine even more.
MugiOkay, I'm fully in drinking mode now! I want to raise a glass in Kofu!
Exhibiting at the Kofu Shingen-ko Festival
According to an Instagram post from Yatsugatake Brewery, the brewery will set up at the Kofu Shingen-ko Festival from April 3 to 5 and serve "super tasty Touchdown beer." On the 3rd, it will operate from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. The post says that Shun, Futami, and Shin, the three people from the brewery, will be on site to serve beer to visitors.
Yatsugatake Brewery is the brewing division operated by "Moegi no Mura" in Kiyosato, Takane Town, Hokuto City, Yamanashi, and it develops the "Yatsugatake Beer Touchdown" brand. The official website says that since brewing began in 1997, it has continued making beer centered on lagers, and its standard "Kiyosato Lager" has also been recognized in international beer competitions.
This booth stands out for combining a major local Yamanashi festival with a pour brought in by the Kiyosato brewery. It will be a chance to enjoy the festival at the venue while sampling Touchdown's flavor, refined at the foot of Yatsugatake. At the end of the post, it also mentions that head brewer Amatsu is scheduled to head to a tap takeover at another venue starting the next day, suggesting that event duties will continue.
