Saien Microbrewery with kitchen will hold its monthly “Saien Beer Gathering” starting at 7:30 p.m. on May 20. This time, the event will spotlight beers made with fruit, with a capacity of 30 people. It is being presented as a gathering to enjoy alongside seasonal ingredients from Iwate.
Hop BroSomething interesting is happening on the night of May 20 at Saien Microbrewery with kitchen in Morioka. It’s the Saien Beer Gathering, and this time it focuses on fruit-style beers, so it has a very seasonal feel to it.
MugiReally? So by fruit-style, do they mean they actually put fruit into the beer? That sounds like an overly stylish event, and now I’m curious!
Hop BroExactly. It looks like they’ll have beers with aromas like peach and cherry, not just lemony ones. They even mention banana-like aromas, so the range of fruit impressions is pretty wide.
MugiBanana-like, even when there isn’t any banana in it? My brain is totally lost in the fruit aisle!
Hop BroThat’s part of what makes craft beer interesting. Aromas created by yeast or the impression from hops can give a beer a fruity character, and the announcement says they’ll also have American-style hazy beers.
MugiHazy means the cloudy kind, right? But does that just mean it looks murky?
Hop BroMore or less, yes. A hazy IPA is known for its cloudiness and juiciness, and it tends to emphasize aroma and mouthfeel more than bitterness. That makes it a great match for a fruit-themed event.
MugiWow. And this event is paired with dishes made from local ingredients, right? Then the food is just as much of a star as the beer!
Hop BroExactly. The official description positions it as a gathering to learn about beers from around the world, and you can enjoy tastings together with food. Since it’s held every third Wednesday of the month, there are probably quite a few regulars.
MugiAnd the participation fee is 4,500 yen, with a limit of 30 people! Things like this are the kind that fill up before you know it, which is nerve-racking!
Hop BroYou can sign up by calling the restaurant at 019-606-0171, and it’s nice that you can enjoy in-house brewed beer right in Morioka’s city center. This is making me imagine tonight’s drink already, drawn in by the aroma of fruit.
MugiYeah, just reading about it makes me want to drink one! I want to toast with a fruit-scented glass, and I’d love to try the food pairings too!
