Niseko and Beer?

If you have been to a few places around the world skiing and snowboarding you would have most likely experienced a few different types of beers and possibly though, "why does this beer taste so good?" Well you are not the only one and these guys have decided to make a business out of it, we have to say we at Niseko Webzine are a little jealous.

Want to know what the hell we are on about? Read this article here

Niseko Night Session

So you are thinking of coming to Niseko this winter! If not you should be! For those of you that have not been here before, night skiing or snowboarding or whatever you kids are into these days, is one thing you have to experience before you can say you have been to Niseko. But be warned, be ready for the weather! We found this little photo while cruzin the net waiting for winter to come back around and thought we would share it with the world.

Photo was taken by Shelly Johnston, thanks for posting it on the web Shelly, love your work and hope to see you back in Niseko again this year.
