Throughout the summer, the Sogo Yokohama Beer Garden will open its doors to the public. Located on the rooftop of the Sogo Yokohama Department store, the beer garden is held in collaboration with the Kamakura Brewing Company who were founded in 1997 and have a long history in the craft beer industry.
The beer garden has various meal and drink plans available to choose from, including options for all-you-can-drink Kamakura beer, and reservations can be made in advance.
Do note that the hours differ from weekdays to weekend:
- Weekdays: 5pm—10pm (LO 9pm)
- Weekends/holidays: 12pm—4pm (LO 3pm), 5pm–10pm (LO 9pm).
