Why You Should Visit

Mint Kobe, the building in front of Sannomiya Station, has brewed its own craft beer for its 20th anniversary and is giving away one bottle at its restaurants for three days only. It covers 21 participating restaurants on B1F, 7F and 8F: eat in and anyone aged 20 or over gets one bottle, with a limited number per restaurant per day. The first day, 2 October, starts at 17:00, and at 18:00 Watanabe Flower, a band officially backed by Kobe City, plays a free live set on the 2F deck. If you're picking somewhere for dinner in Sannomiya that weekend, choosing one of these restaurants gets you the anniversary beer.
