Shiogama Craft Beer Festival Next Month!

I was so excited to see this poster this morning.  A craft beer festival celebrating the small breweries of Tohoku in mid October sounds exactly like the kind of thing I would move to experience, assuming the timing works out for me to do so.

It will take place at a green space only a few minutes walk from HonShiogama station, likely near the Tsunami memorial. In addition to ten craft breweries, several restaurants will also be participating. The likelihood of some lovely vaguely Octoberfest vibes is high.

One of the breweries is Black Tide, the main store of which I've visited and much enjoyed elsewhere in Miyagi.

If you're in the area and in the mood for Octoberfest without Sendai crowds, this would be a good choice.
