Get ready for five days of frothy fun at Roppongi Hills from September 14th to 18th, 2023. The Belgian Beer Weekend Roppongi 2023 is a festival of top-notch Belgian beer, authentic cuisine, and lively music – all the way from Belgium and in its 13th year in Japan.
From Toyosu to Roppongi: A Belgian Beer Journey
Starting in Toyosu, Tokyo, in April, the Belgian Beer Weekend has traveled to Nagoya, Yokohama, Osaka, and Shinjuku, and now Roppongi is up next. Six venues across the country have been graced by this premium beer fest.
Beer Heaven: More Than Just Your Average Pint
Expect to find a wide selection of Belgian beers at the event, including favorites among beer connoisseurs like Trappist beers and IPAs. But even if beer is not your usual go-to drink, you’ll find something to enjoy in the selection of fruit beers and white beers on offer.
Belgian Delights: More Than Just Beer
Of course, what’s a beer fest without some grub to soak up the suds? Classic Belgian snacks like “frites” (fried potatoes) and Belgian shrimp croquettes will also be on the menu. These Belgian beer partners are the perfect accompaniment for your glass of the golden brew.
