MugiWhat? Craft beer at a festival? Can we hold Mojiko Beer while watching fireworks too?
Hop BroExactly. The 2026 festival runs September 19 and 20 around Kokura Castle and Katsuyama Park for its 39th annual event.
MugiYamakasa floats, parades, dancing, music, and fireworks? My brain is already in full festival mode!
Hop BroMojiko Beer is scheduled for the Ichigo Isshoku area, alongside local food like yakisoba-style fried udon and sushi—truly a local food pairing.
MugiDoes food really change which beer tastes best? I have a serious beer-choice emergency with that fried udon!
Hop BroThat is called pairing: matching food and beer so both taste better. For savory fried udon, the aroma of pale ale should work beautifully.
MugiI thought pairing was only for fancy restaurants! So festival stalls can become an extra-tasty mission too?
Hop BroTheir regular lineup includes Weizen, Pale Ale, Sakura Beer, and Pilsner. For something light, try the refreshing Weizen character. The booths are scheduled from noon to 9 p.m. both days.
MugiThen let’s check the latest details before going and enjoy the city’s energy, great food, and a beer born in Mojiko!
