Japanese only spoken but they have English or Korean hand-held audio guides so sweet-as bro - no photos most of the tour until the end when you can have up to 3 beers - don't worry - they offer you first a regular Premium Malt's - then a Master's Dream (too bitter for my female partner) - then their new product blue can Premium Malt's 'with a fruity taste' - my partner didn't drink much so 6 beers later I'm waiting for the shuttle bus back to Bubaigawara Station - drunk and happy. Check the times on the Suntory tour access web page.

Oh - the trick to the amazing smooth head on the beer they serve you - a Suntory engineer designed tap with two holes - the big one for the main beer - they pull back - then for the head they push forward - which forces the beer through a 2mm hole - result - a creamy head like you'd hope for with a Guinness - so yeah try that.

Oh - booking only in Japanese? Ask a friendly Japanese to do it for you.

And - if you're like us and came via Suntory shuttle bus from Bubaigawara station - on the way back check out the suburban shopping center opposite the station where they drop you off - DAISO upstairs - most everything for 100 yen - then eat at the adjacent Saizeria - tasty pasta for a bargain price - get the squid ink black spaghetti - and their number one - chicken wings! OMG oishi des!!!
