Hop BroBig news is coming out of Miyazaki: Hideji Beer's 30th anniversary gets a special live event with DRUM TAO on September 23, 2026, at the Mukabaki brewery in Nobeoka.
MugiWait, what? I thought this was beer news, and now there are drums too? LIVE.TALK & BEER !! sounds like it is trying to win every category at once!
Hop BroThat is exactly the point. The DRUM TAO collaboration is happening for the third straight year, and this time it is a special 30th anniversary program with live music, talk, and fresh Hideji Beer all rolled into one experience.
MugiOhhh! But when you casually say fresh draft Hideji Beer, what makes that different from cans or bottles?
Hop BroThat part matters. Draft serving is all about freshness, so the aroma and carbonation feel more vivid. Basically, it tastes closer to a just-poured brewery moment.
MugiWhat is that dream setup? And it is at the foot of Mount Mukabaki, right? If I can hear the river while drinking, nature is officially the side dish.
Hop BroIt gets better, because from 1:00 PM there is also a garden BBQ plan. Outdoor drums, Japanese instruments, good food, and beer in one place is a very unfair lineup.
MugiWow, it really has watching, eating, and drinking covered. So is the premium ticket actually a big upgrade?
Hop BroVery much so. It comes with a Premium Party and costs 10,900 yen, plus front-row reserved seating. General admission is 5,900 yen, premium goes on sale June 13 at 10:00, general at 11:00, and you can add all-you-can-drink for 2,500 yen or the full BBQ plan for 3,000 yen.
MugiNow that I know the exact times, I am suddenly serious about this. A 30th anniversary reward zone with music all around and beer in hand sounds like a perfect excuse to go.
Hop BroAnd with the air of Sobo-Katamuki Quasi-National Park in the mix, the first sip just hits harder. At this point, both of us absolutely want a Hideji Beer right now.
Hideji Beer will hold "Hideji Beer 30th Anniversary Special LIVE DRUM TAO X Hideji Beer LIVE.TALK & BEER !!" on Wednesday, September 23, 2026, at its Mukabaki Brewery in Nobeoka, Miyazaki. The collaboration with DRUM TAO, a wadaiko performance group based in Oita with a global following, will take place for the third consecutive year.

The venue sits at the foot of Mt. Mukabaki, within the Chusonji-Usebiyama Quasi-National Park area.

Ticket options are straightforward. The general ticket is a reserved-seat plan priced at 5,900 yen. The premium ticket, priced at 10,900 yen, includes front-row reserved seating and a post-show "Premium Party." For either ticket, guests can add a draft-beer all-you-can-drink plan for 2,500 yen or a BBQ plan for 3,000 yen. Premium ticket sales begin at 10:00 a.m. on June 13, and general ticket sales begin at 11:00 a.m. the same day.
Based in Nobeoka, Miyazaki, Hideji Beer has long used its brewery location and surrounding nature as part of its event programming. For its 30th anniversary, the brewery is again highlighting an experience built around music, craft beer, and the landscape around Mukabaki.
