Enjoy the individuality of barrel-aged beer and “once in a lifetime” blending
Off Trail, a brand that challenges new possibilities of craft beer, has created a rich and complex beer by utilizing microorganisms other than beer yeast and using the barrel aging method of aging in wooden casks. Off Trail” is a brand that challenges new possibilities for craft beer. The result varies depending on the barrels and environment in which the beer is aged, so no two beers are ever the same.
In our brewery’s barrel room, we have about 80 barrel-aged beers at any given time, and the best combination of barrels is selected and blended each time to create the final product.
Some barrels that would be too stimulating or unique on their own are brought together with a balance of beers and sometimes fruit, herbs, and spices to add weight and complexity. This “Forbidden Land” is a product that utilizes barrel-aged beers that have been aged for up to 20 months, while taking advantage of their characteristic acidity.

The base beer blend for“Forbidden Land” is a 20-month aged Sour Blonde Ale and a 15-month aged Wheat Strong Ale. The Blonde Ale was selected for its strong vinegar-like acidity and apple nuances. The Blonde Ale was selected for its vinegar-like acidity with apple notes, while the Wheat Strong Ale was chosen for its thickness and complexity, with the cinnamon-infused barrels and the oaky barrels of the Wheat Strong Ale, and finally the apple puree was added for a juicier finish. The soft flavors derived from the apple and cinnamon, the stimulation from the vinegar, and the tannins from the oak create a complex combination.

Off Trail Forbidden Landwill be available in limited quantities at the official Far Yeast Brewing Web Store from 12:00 pm on Tuesday, June 25. Shipments to beer bars, restaurants, and liquor stores nationwide will begin on Wednesday, June 26, and purchases through the official Web Store will begin on Tuesday, July 2.

What is Off Trail?
“Off Trail” is a brand that challenges new possibilities for craft beer, created in November 2019 as a follow-up to the two brands “KAGUA” and “Far Yeast”. KAGUA was named after the image of “Off Trail,” or the “unpaved road,” which is a departure from the “well-paved road. The brand is committed to brewing beer that makes use of microorganisms other than beer yeast through the barrel aging method, in which beer is aged in barrels used for wine, sake, and whiskey. Barrel-aged base beers have a strong character depending on the environment in the barrels, and the chemical reactions that occur in nature produce rich and complex aromas. To match the character of the base beer, we try to create unique flavors by blending seasonal fruits such as grapes and peaches, as well as regional specialties.
