Why You Should Visit
A craft beer festival at Osaka Bay Tower, directly connected to Bentencho Station, bringing together 12 breweries from Kansai and beyond. Built around the theme "a toast to the future," it pairs the beer with six food stalls and a handful of handmade craft vendors. Beer runs on a reusable-cup-plus-ticket system, so you can taste in small pours and talk to the brewers themselves. Hula dancing takes the stage on Sep 22, and a Freddie Mercury lip-sync performer on Sep 23. Non-alcoholic drinks are on hand for anyone not drinking.
