Limited Edition "KAGUA" Japanese Citrus Saison Released ~Saison-style Limited Edition "KAGUA"~

Far Yeast Brewing Co., Ltd. (Head office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Shiro Yamada) will release a limited edition "Japanese Citrus Saison" from its craft beer brand "KAGUA" in late June 2017.

"KAGUA" Japanese Citrus Saison is a saison beer that harmonizes the fresh and vibrant aroma of Japanese herbs ("Yuzu" from Umaji Village, Kochi Prefecture and "Sansho" from Aridagawa Town, Wakayama Prefecture), one of the characteristics of the "KAGUA" series, with the fruity ester aroma of saison yeast.

While retaining the fragrant aroma and soft carbonation of the "KAGUA" series, this beer has a light body and dry taste with an alcohol content of 6%. Enjoy its refreshing taste by serving it well chilled, pairing it with a colorful chopped salad packed with ingredients, Asian cuisine featuring the complex flavors of herbs and coriander, fatty smoked salmon, or juicy roast chicken with a rich sauce.

While the traditional "KAGUA" was designed to be enjoyed leisurely with food, the limited-edition "KAGUA" Japanese Citrus Saison is also suitable as an aperitif. The excitement of a wonderful encounter. The thrill of conversation with close friends. Why not enjoy "KAGUA" Japanese Citrus Saison as the first drink of an important toast for such a moment?

We will continue to introduce new items such as limited edition brews, and aim to provide products that will please many people in a variety of everyday situations.

*KAGUA Japanese Citrus Saison uses yuzu and sansho pepper as secondary ingredients, so it is classified as a "happoshu" (low-malt beer) under Japan's liquor tax law. *Although it is a happoshu, the malt ratio and production method are the same as beer, and the tax rate is the same as beer. *KAGUA is classified as beer according to the standards of many countries, including Belgium, where it is produced, so it is sold as beer in overseas markets.
