2021 Destination Korean Sool Breweries: Travel Korea to Please Your Eyes and Taste Buds

 

We’d like to present four new ‘destination breweries’ selected in 2021 to you.

 

First things first, what is a destination brewery?

 

In short, a destination brewery in Korea is a selected hot spot. Visit anywhere with the designation, and you can try a fresh brew of traditional Korean liquors and travel to tourist attractions nearby.

 

The Project Destination Brewery was launched in 2013 by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food & Rural Affairs (MARFA) and Korea Agro-Fisheries Trade Corporation (aT). It supports qualified breweries to improve facilities, develop experience programs, and promote their brand. The project also allows consumers to drink and experience freshly brewed Korean sool where it is made.

 

There are 46 destination breweries officially designated in Korea.

In 2021, local governments across the country recommended 19 candidates, and four were selected based on five criteria: 1) certified liquor quality 2) brewery history 3) connection with the local community 4) tourist attractions nearby 5) awards won in competitions
