Umekita Onsen Ren Wellbeing Park (General Manager: Tatsuya Fujitate, Location: Osaka City) will hold a special "KIRIN Collaboration Aufguss Event" primarily during the Golden Week period, in collaboration with Kirin Brewery Company, Limited (Representative Director and President: Hideki Horiguchi, Location: Nakano-ku, Tokyo).
For this event, two types of original aroma oils will be used in the Aufguss performance, inspired by the hops "IBUKI," partially used in Kirin's craft beer series "SPRING VALLEY BREWERY"'s "Hojun Lager 496," and "Nelson Sauvin," partially used in "Silk Ale Shiro." Each features a floral scent and a gorgeous white wine-like aroma, creating an unprecedented sauna experience as a special program where guests can immerse themselves in the world of Kirin's craft beers.
Special performances by Aufguss masters will be held on May 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 31st. Furthermore, on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays throughout May, the facility's staff will also conduct Löyly events featuring programs using the two types of original aroma oils.
This project is also linked with "MIDORI FES. 2026," which will be held mainly in Umekita Park during Golden Week in Grand Green Osaka. During MIDORI FES. 2026, visitors to Umekita Park can experience an aroma inspired by the hop "Murakami Seven," partially used in "JAPAN Ale Kaori." By enjoying these different aromas, the event provides an opportunity to learn about the unique characteristics of craft beers.
Through this initiative, we aim to contribute to promoting the appeal of craft beers and deliver a well-being time for a "totonou" (deeply relaxed) state through an immersive sauna experience combining bathing and aroma.
The facility is committed to creating new experiential value through collaborations with various companies, positioning itself as a well-being facility that comprehensively supports mental and physical health based on five themes: bathing, exercise, dining, meditation (mind), and beauty.
