Beer beer and beer

It's summer here in Sapporo. Getting hotter these days, but it's not hot as Tokyo.
In a hot summer nicely weather day, I would like to drink a beer in outdoor sometimes.
Here's a wonderful solution for that.


Odori Park Summer Beer Festival(さっぽろ大通ビアガーデン)

Odori park is 12 blocks (about 1.5 km) long park which located in centre of Sapporo city.

Odori Park in winter season

Many events hold in this park such as Sapporo Snow Festival and Yosakoi Soran Festival. In summer season, this park change to large beer garden!

5 of 12 blocks turn into beer garden. 4 major Japanese breweries make their place in each blocks. 2 blocks turned into world beer zone and Sapporo German Village zone.

This beer garden will hold during 19th July to 15th August. In this period there are some places which you can enjoy beer garden such as front of Sapporo station.

I've been in Sapporo for 2 years, but until last weekend I've never enjoyed beer garden in Odori park. I've enjoyed beer garden in front of Sapporo station in 2 years ago, but since then I didn't have chance to go these places. So this is my first time to drink beer in Odori park.

I went there with my colleagues last Sunday. We went to Kirin's block. Kirin is one of the major Japanese breweries.


Many people were enjoying beer on Sunday evening
They are selling some unusual beers.

Tower beer
The tower beer (photo above) is 4 litre beer. Fortunately, it was evening and it's not so hot, then this beer stayed in cold.

Frozen beer

The frozen beer (photo above) is beer but there are frozen beer foam on top of them. This frozen beer foam keep beer cold. And taste a little new.

I could enjoyed these beer in outside. But I would like to go there again, if I have a chance. But next time I would like to go different block to enjoy another experience. lol

Thanks
