JAPANESE

MICRO-BREWED BEER

KIRIN, SAPPORO, ASAHI... Yes, all these are Japanese beers. However, the ones you drink in the U.S. are in fact not imported from Japan. At this event, the Japanese Culinary Center would like to introduce 6 different types of Japanese micro brewed beer from two great breweries.

The first brand, "ECHIGO" is from Niigata prefecture. The other brand, "COEDO" is from Saitama prefecture, Japan. The latter was honored by the International Taste & Quality Institute earning three stars. You will be amazed at how mild Japanese beers are.

We would also like to suggest food and beer pairings utilizing beers with varying flavors. We hope that everyone will join us for this exciting experience of trying clean and crisp Japanese beers with the perfectly matched finger foods.

We are honored to have representatives of both breweries at the event so that everyone can meet them first hand. We welcome everyone from the casual beer lover that has never had imported Japanese micro brewed beers to the veteran beer aficionado.

We hope to have everyone get together and have a wonderful time!
