Access Guide for the 29th Anniversary Festival


Yatsugatake Brewery in Hokuto, Yamanashi, announced that it will operate special buses connecting Kobuchizawa Station and the brewery in conjunction with the main event of its 29th anniversary festival on Saturday, June 6. It is not a reservation-based service, and boarding is first-come, first-served at each stop. With an expected capacity of about 20 passengers per run, early action will likely be necessary during busy times.

Kiyosato Station is also the nearest station, but because service is infrequent, the brewery is recommending use of the bus. If you can catch the earliest bus, you should be able to enjoy beer starting from the 10:00 opening. If the bus is full and you cannot board, a special train departing at 9:18 is also available.

Yatsugatake Brewery is known as the brewery behind Yatsugatake Beer "Touch Down." For its anniversary event, the guidance clearly covers not only the beer lineup but also how to get to the venue. For visitors coming from afar, knowing the transportation options in advance is reassuring. It is practical guidance befitting a brewery in the mountains.
