Off Trail” was launched in 2019 as the third brand following “KAGUA” and “Far Yeast”. Off Trail is a unique beer with a rich and complex flavor, created by utilizing microorganisms other than beer yeast, mainly through the barrel aging method of aging in wooden casks.
This time, Far Yeast Brewing collaborated with Tabajibier, a gibier brand from Tambayama Village, a neighboring village across the mountain from Kosuge Village in Yamanashi Prefecture, where Far Yeast Brewing’s Headwaters Brewery is located. This time, Far Yeast Brewing will release a barrel-aged Wild Red Ale, specially blended to go well with the gibier.
Tambayama Village, like Kosuge Village, is rich in nature with clear water flowing from the headwaters of the Tama River. It has inherited a hunting culture that has continued since ancient times, and has a culture of respecting wild animals caught by hunting as “gifts from the mountain gods. Tabajibie is working to make the hunting culture of Tambayama Village known to as many people as possible by providing high-quality, safe gibier meat, as well as promoting the utilization of wild animals and regional development.
The collaborative beer “Off Trail Wild Caught” was created to celebrate the wild resources that inhabit Chichibu-Tama-Kai National Park, to which both Kosuge and Tambayama villages belong. For the base beer, we used a stout aged 24 months in the barrels of the Headwaters Brewery in Kosuge Village, an 18-month-old Sour Porter, a 12-month-old Sour Red, and a 14-month-old Strong Ale, in pursuit of the best blend to pair with the gibier. The result is a well-balanced blend based on mild acidity from acetic and lactic acids, with berries, toasty malts, and tannins from oak barrels. In addition, wild sansho (Japanese pepper) from the village of Tambayama was introduced. The addition of citrussy, green and fresh flavors from the sansho adds a refreshing accent to the complex flavors of the base blend. This product also expresses one of the themes of “Off Trail”: terroir.
Off Trail Wild Caught will begin shipping on Wednesday, March 29, and will be available for purchase on the company’s official online store from 12:00 pm on Tuesday, March 28.

What is Off Trail?
Off Trail was created in November 2019 as a follow-up to the KAGUA and Far Yeast brands, challenging new possibilities for craft beer. KAGUA was named after the image of “Off Trail,” or the “unpaved road,” which is a departure from the “well-paved road. In order to produce a rich and complex aroma by utilizing microorganisms other than beer yeast, beer is aged in barrels used for wine, sake, and whiskey. To match the character of the base beer, we try to create unique flavors by blending seasonal and regional fruits such as grapes and peaches.
