What kind of brewery is BREW Fuefuki?
Hop BroToday, let’s talk about BREW Fuefuki in Fuefuki City. It’s operated by a company called Kyoei Forklift Service.
MugiWhat! A forklift company is brewing beer!?
Hop BroExactly, it’s a real case of an industry outsider entering the field. A company that used to handle forklift maintenance is taking on craft beer. In Yamanashi’s recent brewery scene, this kind of story isn’t all that rare, but it still makes an impact.
MugiBut forklifts and beer are totally different fields, right? Can they really make proper beer?
Hop BroOn tap, they offer a wide range of styles: pale ale, IPA, lager, weizen, and golden ale. The fact that they cover the standard styles thoroughly makes it feel like they learned the basics properly before starting.
MugiOh, wow! They even have a weizen. What’s the place like?
Hop BroIt’s a beer bar in the Isawa Onsen area, with a small layout centered around counter seating. It seems like a place where you can drop in alone without feeling out of place. There’s also parking, so you can go by car.
MugiSo in Isawa Onsen, you can drink beer after soaking in the hot springs? That’s amazing!
Hop BroExactly. Fuefuki City is also a major peach and grape producing area, so personally I’d be excited if they started making fruit beers in the future.
MugiPeach beer sounds like it would be delicious! I’d love to stop by on a hot spring trip!
