Admission: Free
Brooklyn Kura hosts Kimoto Fest featuring Sake Discoveries. Children can stomp rice and enjoy hot amazake, a traditional Japanese sweet, non-alcoholic beverage made from fermented rice. Warm kimoto will be available for the grownups.
About Kimoto
Kimoto is a traditional style of sake made with a labor-intensive method that goes back to around the year 1700. Sake makers extract enzymes from the rice by pounding the rice with wooden paddles. The result is a pure yeast that creates a richer, more mellow sake.
About Brooklyn Kura
The first sake brewery in New York, Brooklyn Kura opened their brewery and tap room in Industry City in 2018. Using Japanese sake-brewing history, Brooklyn is creating a new tradition of American craft sake.
In 2021, Brooklyn Kura began a partnership with Hakkaisan, a highly respected Japanese brewery based in Niigata.
