Sakazuki Brewing to Join Ishihama Shrine Beer Fest on September 26
Sakazuki Brewing, based in Adachi, Tokyo, will again take part in Ishihama Marche x Beer Fest at Ishihama Shrine in Minamisenju on September 26. The post also shared the day’s tap list, ranging from familiar styles to more seasonal beers.
Hop BroI’ve got a good one today: Ishihama Shrine Beer Fest is back on September 26, and Sakazuki Brewing is pouring there again this year.
MugiWait, craft beer at a shrine!? So you pray first and then cheers? That is elite weekend behavior!
Hop BroExactly. Sakazuki Brewing is a brewpub in Kitasenju, and they’re known for beers designed to pair well with food. They moved in 2020, and the old spot still runs as Sakazuki Lab.
MugiOh wow, so it’s a two-base setup? That feels super local in the best way.
Hop BroAnd the published tap list is strong. There’s the Bohemian pilsner “shy girl,” the Nanko-plum fruit beer “Komorebi,” “Summer Memories” with white peach and rosemary, and the hazy IPA “Stardust.”
MugiHold on, hazy IPA? What even is that? The name sounds like a fog bank crash-landed in space!
Hop BroBasically it means cloudy and juicy. It’s an IPA with big aroma and softer bitterness. It looks a little misty, but the flavor is surprisingly approachable.
MugiOhh, so something like white peach and rosemary is all about aroma too? That name is illegally elegant.
Hop BroExactly. And with lagers, sour ales, IPAs, and stouts all there, it’s a wide-open lineup. Even a mixed group can all find their lane.
MugiAnd there’ll be a fleet of food trucks, right? Plus Hoshino Seisakusho, OKEI BREWERY, and more. My stomach already has a schedule.
Hop BroRight, it runs from 11:00 to 20:00 at a shrine by the Sumida River, which is basically a full autumn session. I’m already plotting “shy girl” at noon and “Stardust” in the evening.
MugiI’m sold. I want to start with a toast with Komorebi and chase it with “Stardust.” Just hearing this made me want a drink.
September 26 at Ishihama Shrine
Sakazuki Brewing will once again join Ishihama Marche x Beer Fest, held at Ishihama Shrine in Minamisenju, Arakawa Ward. The brewery’s Instagram post says the event will run on Saturday, September 26, from 11:00 to 20:00, making it a full-day gathering from lunch through the evening.
Sakazuki Brewing is a blue pub in Kitasenju, Adachi Ward, Tokyo. Since opening in March 2016, it has been known for serving craft beer with food pairings in mind. The brewery moved to its current location in 2020, while the original site continues as its sister shop, Sakazuki Lab.
The post also shared the day’s tap lineup. Among the beers listed were shy girl (Bohemian pilsner), Komorebi brewed with ripe Nanko plums, Natsu no Kioku with white peach and rosemary, and Stardust, a hazy IPA. The selection spans lagers, sour ales, IPAs, and stout-style beers, showing the brewery’s broad range.
Other breweries scheduled to appear at the event include Hoshino Seisakusho (Mugi), OKEI BREWERY, Let’s Beer Works, GROW BREW HOUSE, and Shoganomushi. Food trucks are also expected, making the shrine grounds a place to eat and drink at an easy pace.
For beer fans in Tokyo, it is another chance to catch a local Adachi brewery pouring at a riverside-area event in late September.
