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. |
Captain Kirk looking off into the wild yonder |
So sad to leave! We'll be doing this trip again next year for sure! |
