Craft beer brewed with highland water, and food to go with it.
This is a sample page. Highland Brewery is a fictional place, and its name, prices and hours are all made up for this sample.
How to enjoy it
At Highland Brewery you can see the brewing tanks through glass at the back. Try a few small glasses side by side to see how one water makes very different beers. If you are driving, enjoy the non-alcoholic drinks and take bottles home.

place-8006-hero.webpEat · Takane
A farm diner with set meals of its own pork and eggs.
Tip
Makiba is run by the farming family. Next to the till, a notice explains how the pigs are raised and fed. Read it before you eat and the same dish tastes different.
place-8007-hero.webpEat · Takane
Soft-serve and a café using milk from the farm.
Tip
The Highland Milk Stand uses milk from the farm next door. Try the soft-serve plain first to taste the milk itself. On a sunny day, eat it on the benches outside, watching the cows.

The “yellow bridge”, with views of Yatsugatake, the Southern Alps and Mt. Fuji.
Tip
Park at the viewing car park on the Kiyosato Station side of the bridge and take in the bridge and the ranges. Yatsugatake lies to the north, the Southern Alps to the south-west and Mt. Fuji to the south, a different mountain each way you turn.
place-8028-hero.webpStay · Kiyosato
A four-room dining inn. Dinner is a course of Yatsugatake vegetables and venison.
Tip
Kurumi is an inn you stay at for dinner. The menu follows the season in the fields and hills, so mention any foods you avoid when you book. After dinner, take your time by the fire.
