Yamaguchi Brewery Trip



We stopped at this rest stop about an hour into the trip.
Our tour bus! Thankfully the bus was comfy-it was about a 2 hour trip from Iwakuni out to the brewery.

This is the view of the Yamaguchi Brewery and restaurant from the parking lot. It is settled up on the side of a mountain and has an amazing view!

Our first course was ready at our tables when we arrived! It consisted of a fried crab leg, cream cheese stuffed cherry tomato, grilled scallops, grilled squid, and prime rib.


Ummm...Kirk?


First round of brews: Weisen and a Pale Ale.

Sausages with a whole-grain mustard.

Pasta with grilled eggplant and cheese.


Eating pasta with chopsticks is a difficult task!

Round two: Stout and Pilsner

Margarita pizza! We took most of this home with us - there was so much food.

Main course #1: Roasted Chicken

Main course #2: Grilled steak - this was so good I started to eat it before taken the picture

Bottled beer from the brewery for sale in their gift shop. One bottled was 570 yen which is about $7.25 - no thank you!

The brewery kettle.


After dinner we took a walk up to the waterfall behind the restaurant.

So sad to leave! We'll be doing this trip again next year for sure!
