Why You Should Visit
A ten-day tasting event in the B1 Sunken Garden of KITTE Osaka, directly connected to the west exit of JR Osaka Station. For 2,500 yen you get nine "Saketabi" tickets plus a 1,000-yen dining voucher for the restaurant floors on 4F and 5F, then mix and match your own flight from 100 craft beers and 200 sakes gathered from across Japan. The sake booths swap themes and breweries every two days, and on some days the toji (head brewer) pours in person. Finish the evening upstairs with the voucher.
