Hanten Coat and Tenugui Towel Take Your Tour in “Brewer Style”

Exploring Japan’s proud brewing culture “casually, but deeply”—that’s what we had in mind when we redesigned our brewery tour. Winter may be our main brewing season, but guests can enjoy a tour no matter the season or the weather.<br /> *You can take the tenugui towel home as a souvenir

Japan’s First in-Brewery Photo Spot

Our mashing room is set up with photographic lights and three cameras, and a special photo system allows us to take commemorative pictures for our guests. When the tour is over, you can download the photos to your smartphone and take them home!<br /> *Get your picture taken stirring the mash

From Camera to Label

Choose your favorite photo from the shoot, and we can turn it into a label to put on a bottle of sake for you. Feel free to test your skills and try attaching the label yourself!
