<About "Far Yeast">
Established in April 2014, Far Yeast Brewing Co., Ltd. launched this brand with the aim of creating a beer that would convey the appeal of Tokyo, a city renowned around the world. This is Far Yeast Brewing Co., Ltd.'s second brand, following on from Kagua.
Based on the theme of "Tokyo," a vibrant city that evolves daily while blending tradition and cutting-edge technology, the beer is brewed at a domestic contract brewery using an original recipe. Three types are available: the lager-style "Tokyo Blonde," the saison-style "Tokyo White," and the lager-style "Tokyo Blonde - Export," an export version.
