Kobo Brewery within the Higashi-Iwase district of Toyama Metropolis is a wonderful spot for craft beer and beer-friendly bites like sausages, pate de campagne, cheese, and pickles. Czech brewer Jiri Kotynek has created a portfolio of fabulous beers. A flight of beers is the way in which to see an ale, lager, IPA, or pilsner. I really like the weizen which is fruity with a touch of spice – excellent for the Slovakian huge sausage.

The Higashi-Iwase district is an historic port metropolis the place ships, referred to as Kitmae bune, introduced merchandise inculding kombu from Hokkaido to the realm. The realm is stuffed with picket buildings that date again to when the port metropolis was flourishing. The realm is in a robust revival, a lot to the thanks of Masuda san. There’s Kobo craft beer, a tasting room for Masuizumi sakes, retail outlets for fermented seafood, wagashi, in addition to artist ateliers with glassware and pottery.
