We are selling five distinctive varieties, including ones made with Tomakomai-grown haskap and others using Tomakomai-grown yachiyanagi instead of hops‼
*Because these items require refrigeration, we offer ice packs and insulated bags for those carrying them for long periods (each available for a fee).

At Hokkaido Brewery, the brewpub and beer kitchen in Nishiki-cho 2-chome, Tomakomai City, you can enjoy the full range of craft beers alongside local game such as venison✨
