A seasonal pizza for Oktoberfest season

In a daze Brewing & Taproom, a brewpub in Nishiminowa, Ina, Nagano, is offering a seasonal pizza topped with house-made sauerkraut and sausage.

The pizza features sauerkraut fermented simply with locally grown red cabbage and salt, combined with cheese and a generous amount of sausage. The result brings together the tang of fermentation, savory meat, and creamy cheese in a filling pizza. The original post recommends enjoying it on its own or pairing it with beer.

The special is presented in connection with Oktoberfest season. The post also notes that the Ina Oktoberfest beer, brewed in March this year by In a daze Brewing and Ina Oktoberfest, has made its first pour at Beer Fest Shinshu, held at Matsumoto Castle Park.

The post does not specify the beer’s style, ingredients, or alcohol content. It does, however, position Ina Oktoberfest as a beer connected to both the local brewery and the Ina community—an appealing match for a pizza built around locally sourced cabbage and fermentation.

In a daze Brewing & Taproom is a brewpub where house-brewed beer and food can be enjoyed alongside one another. For beer lovers visiting Ina, the seasonal sauerkraut and sausage pizza offers a distinctly autumnal pairing opportunity, while Ina Oktoberfest provides a local beer to explore with it.
