Kirin Sakaba Pop-Up at the Oaks

Transformed into a Japanese garden, the 1936 Bar with traditional lanterns, bamboo archways, decorative bonsai trees and a striking LED cherry blossom tree installation and traditional rice paper screens give the space a cosy feel to bunker during winter.

Kirin mulled apple cider

The bar is serving an exclusive menu of Kirin beers and ciders as well as a Kirin mulled apple cider served in a traditional Japanese teapot.
