Plan description

[Yokote Hop Craft Beer Making Experience] Yokote is actually a famous hop producing area. We will hold a two-day event in Yokote where you can experience both hop making and brewing. [Day 1] You will not only visit the hop fields, but also experience the work. Beer after farm work should be especially delicious! A social gathering will also be held in the evening! We will guide you to a local deep izakaya. [Day 2] At a brewery in Yokote City, you can see craft beer making up close, which you cannot usually see. There will also be a tasting session that you have been waiting for. Craft beer will surely taste different if you drink it after knowing the process of how it is made. ✨We look forward to your participation! Please feel free to DM us for inquiries.

A special experience in Japan's No. 1 hop producing region

Yokote City is one of Japan's leading hop producing regions, producing about 30% of the hops grown in Japan. The climate and soil of the Daiyu area in particular are well suited to hop cultivation, and high-quality hops have been cultivated there for many years. The craft beer brewing experience here is a rare opportunity to experience the aroma and bitterness of fresh hops firsthand.

Discoveries, ideas, and healing born from "interaction"

This is more than just a simple brewing experience; it is a rare opportunity to feel a deep connection with the local nature, culture, and people. Recommended not only for beer lovers, but also for those who want to interact with the local community.

It doesn't end with just one time!

Depending on the time of the event, the hop-making process will change. Come and enjoy the seasonal changes in the appearance of the hops, the nature, and the air! Before you know it, Yokote may become your "second home."
