MugiWhat? They will have seven taps at the festival? How many plates of gyoza am I supposed to eat?!
Hop BroThat is the fun part. You can match beers with grilled, fried, or boiled dumplings, with seven gyoza-friendly pours to explore.
MugiBut what beer goes with gyoza? For a juicy grilled dumpling, I am imagining an ice-cold beer.
Hop BroExactly—and hop freshness helps reset your palate. That is called a pairing effect, making the next bite taste even better.
MugiPairing? Does that mean pears holding hands with gyoza? A fruity dumpling warning?!
Hop BroNope! It means food and drink that suit each other. Beer cuts through the richness for a delicious balance in every bite.
MugiOoh! Crisp beer with browned grilled gyoza, something lighter with boiled gyoza—endless matching possibilities!
Hop BroFounded in 1997, Fujizakura Kogen Beer uses soft water from the Mt. Fuji foothills and German-inspired brewing. Their range includes Pils, Weizen, and Rauch.
MugiRauch? That sounds like a spell! And this brewery has over 150 awards? Definitely not ordinary beer.
Hop BroRauch is beer made with smoked malt. With crispy fried gyoza, that could become an irresistible smoky duo—I may lose all self-control.
MugiAdmission is free, and the brewmaster and staff will serve it too, right? Cheers in Saitama Shintoshin—I am already planning gyoza refills!
Fujizakura Heights Beer, based in Fujikawaguchiko, Yamanashi, has announced its participation in Craft Gyoza Fes SAITAMA 2026. The food festival will run from Wednesday, October 7 through Monday, October 12, at Keyaki Hiroba in Saitama Shintoshin. Admission is free, with food and drinks charged separately.
The brewery’s booth will feature seven taps of beer chosen to complement gyoza. Visitors can enjoy the lineup alongside a wide range of dumplings, including grilled, fried, steamed and boiled styles. The festival is scheduled to run from 1 p.m. on the opening day, from 11 a.m. on weekdays, and from 10 a.m. on weekends and holidays, with closing at 8 p.m.
Gyoza’s savory filling and browned, aromatic exterior make a natural match for beer’s crisp carbonation and refreshing finish. The contrast can cleanse the palate between bites, making the seven-tap lineup well suited to a relaxed tasting tour through the festival’s many dumpling vendors.
Founded in 1997, Fujizakura Heights Beer builds on German brewing techniques and uses carefully selected ingredients together with soft water from the foothills of Mount Fuji. Its core range includes Pils, Weizen and Rauch, and the brewery says its beers have received more than 150 awards at domestic and international competitions.
For beer lovers, the event offers a chance to explore how beers from a Fuji-region brewery work with the rich, varied flavors of craft gyoza. The seven-tap selection will be one of the key attractions at the brewery’s Saitama appearance.
