Enjoy the mellow aroma of the 2022 vintage product, limited edition "KAGUA Blanc Special Edition 2022" on sale from Friday, October 7th

Far Yeast Brewing will release a limited edition brew of its Japanese-flavored ale, "KAGUA," titled "KAGUA Blanc Special Edition 2022," on Friday, October 7, 2022.

KAGUA, which was created with the concept of "a fragrant aroma that complements the Japanese dining table," has been enjoyed at high-end Japanese restaurants both in Japan and overseas since its inception, and is our flagship brand that has earned high praise from many beer fans.

This special edition of "KAGUA," the first in three years, is a limited-edition beer brewed in 2022 based on "KAGUA Blanc," fully showcasing its characteristic gorgeous ester aroma. Based on Saison/Farmhouse Ale, a traditional Belgian/French beer, this vintage product has an alcohol content of 10% and can be aged for five years.

In Belgium, there is a culture of aging high-alcohol beers for a long time to enjoy the changes in flavor, and of purchasing beers to commemorate important milestones in life and enjoying them with friends and family a few years later. This beer also has the potential to become drier and develop more complex fruity notes with long aging.

While the "KAGUA" series typically uses sansho pepper and yuzu citrus, this brew's recipe is designed without sansho pepper, allowing the citrus aroma of yuzu and the sweet aroma of esters to stand out. The complex and mellow fruity flavors of pear, apple, banana, and clove deepen with age and blend with the subtle, refreshing aroma of yuzu. The dry, crisp mouthfeel reminiscent of a dry sparkling wine and the sparkling carbonation create a pleasant, well-balanced finish.

"KAGUA" is a Belgian-style beer that could be called the origin of Far Yeast Brewing. This richer version is a bit different from the hop-forward beers that are currently trending. It is a special beer that offers a rich experience, allowing you to slowly savor the mellow aroma unique to the Belgian style and enjoy the changes in flavor that occur with aging.

" KAGUA Blanc Special Edition 2022 " will be available for a limited time from Friday, October 7th, and pre-orders will begin on our online store from 1:00 PM on Tuesday, October 4th.

[About "KAGUA"]

The original recipe (mixture) was conceived based on the concept of "a fragrance that complements the Japanese dining table," and is brewed at a partner brewery in Belgium using yuzu and sansho pepper, herbs that are symbolic of Japan. The lineup includes three varieties: "Blanc," which uses wheat for a gorgeous ester aroma and fresh yuzu , "Rouge," which uses roasted malt for a spicy sansho pepper aroma and a fragrant malt , and "Saison," which has a fresh, fruity aroma. A major feature of these beers is that they can be enjoyed by pairing them with food, just like wine.

Our products are sold in famous and popular restaurants that have been awarded stars in the Michelin Guide, as well as luxury hotels and restaurants overseas .
