KAGUA Blanc/Rouge Specially Brewed in Japan / 13th Anniversary Beer Far Yeast Brewing's Origins "KAGUA" First Attempt at In-House Brewing!

To celebrate its 13th anniversary, Far Yeast Brewing will begin shipping "KAGUA Blanc/Rouge Special Japanese Brewing," its first attempt at in-house brewing of its original brand beer, "KAGUA," on Wednesday, September 4, 2024.

■The 13th anniversary beer is a return to the roots of the "KAGUA" series, a first attempt at domestic production
September 7, 2024 will mark our 13th anniversary.
On this day 13 years ago, the company was founded as Japan Craft Beer Co., Ltd., and in March of the following year, it released its first original brand beer, "KAGUA," which was contracted to be brewed by the Belgian brewery "De Graal." The company later changed its name to the current "Far Yeast Brewing Co., Ltd.", and in 2017, it opened its own factory, "Genryu Brewery," and "KAGUA" has been supported by many customers ever since.
This year marks our 13th anniversary, and we are going back to basics to take on the challenge of brewing our first original beer, "KAGUA."

■While following the original recipe, we create a taste that can only be achieved through our own brewing process.
The recipe faithfully reproduces the original "KAGUA Blanc/Rouge," generously using yuzu from Kochi Prefecture and grape sansho pepper from Wakayama Prefecture, which are characteristic of "KAGUA." However, the brewing water, other ingredients, manufacturing equipment, and processes are different from those of the Belgian brewery "De Graal," resulting in a flavor unique to in-house brewing. The result is a rich, fruity aroma and a rich flavor, befitting the 13th anniversary of the company's founding.
We have also adopted the in-vessel secondary fermentation method, which has been a focus of our brewery since its founding. This traditional Belgian method significantly reduces the risk of beer deterioration due to oxidation, allowing for long-term quality preservation and the enjoyment of changes in flavor with aging. For this reason, our Belgian-style beer, "KAGUA Blanc/Rouge Special Japanese Brewing," is a masterpiece among our beers that allows you to fully enjoy the aging process through secondary fermentation.

■The label adds a special touch. 750ml bottles are also available, making them perfect for gifts.
The art design that embodies the worldview of "KAGUA" adds a special feeling. The design, which features the "KAGUA" logo mark, which resembles a crest, and the product name in gold leaf, is simple and sophisticated, yet creates an extraordinary feeling befitting "Special Japanese Brewery."
To celebrate this year's anniversary, we have decided to use cans for packaging so that more customers can easily pick up the "KAGUA" brand. We will also be releasing a limited number of 750ml bottles, which are perfect as gifts for loved ones.

To all of you who have enjoyed our beer over the years, we would like to offer a special anniversary beer that will give you a sense of the brewery's past and future. We hope you enjoy this product, which embodies our determination to continue challenging ourselves with our mission of "Democratizing Beer" in mind!
"KAGUA Blanc/Rouge Special Japanese Brewing" will be available for purchase in limited quantities on the Far Yeast Brewing official web store. Purchases on the official web store and shipments to beer bars, restaurants, and liquor stores nationwide will begin sequentially from Wednesday, September 4th.
