Orion Happy Park

About this Attraction

Orion Beer, the most iconic beer brand of Okinawa, is beloved by locals and tourists alike, and can be found at virtually every restaurant and convenience store throughout the prefecture. Brewed in Nago City, located in the northern part of Okinawa's main island, Orion Beer has become a cultural symbol of the region. The heart of its operations is the Orion Brewery, and within it, Orion Happy Park—a public-friendly area that offers a unique behind-the-scenes look at the beer’s production and history.

Orion Happy Park serves as the starting point for brewery tours, which take approximately one hour and provide a fascinating glimpse into the beer-making process. While the guided tours are conducted in Japanese, an English guidebook is provided, making it accessible to international visitors. Tours must be reserved in advance through their official website, especially during peak seasons. The experience includes a walkthrough of the brewery's facilities, with views of the ingredient mixing stages, fermentation, and bottling lines, as well as a historical overview of Orion Beer’s evolution since its founding in 1957.

At the end of the tour, guests enjoy a 20-minute beer tasting session, where they can sample freshly brewed Orion Beer in a relaxing setting. The facility also features a gift shop selling exclusive merchandise and a restaurant where visitors can pair Orion Beer with Okinawan cuisine. Whether you're a beer enthusiast or just curious about Okinawan culture, a visit to Orion Happy Park offers a fun and educational experience that combines local tradition with craftsmanship. It's one of the most enjoyable stops in Nago for adults and a great way to appreciate the pride Okinawans have in their home-grown beer.
