A Refreshing Ale with the Umami of Shio Koji and the Aroma of Minami Shinshu Lemon
# ShioKoji# Ale# MinamiShinshuLemon
This is a unique beer flavor, fermented and aged with puréed whole Minami Shinshu lemons, and liquid shio koji as ingredients.

From the moment it touches your palette, you'll experience the aroma and refreshing tartness of Meyer lemons; a cross between oranges and lemons. This is layered with the rich umami derived from shio koji, offering a light mouthfeel and a mellow, full-bodied flavor all at once.

In collaboration with "In a daze Brewing," a craft beer brewery in Ina, Nagano Prefecture, we’ve packed this ale with the deliciousness of local produce and alps water.

The gentle saltiness and umami from the shio koji make it highly versatile to go well with a wide range of dishes.

Whether you're a beer lover or prefer lighter drinks, you can enjoy its fresh fruity taste and rich finish.
How to Enjoy:
Serve chilled from the refrigerator. We also recommend adding ice cubes. When poured into a glass, you can enjoy the umami that extends to the foam. Its refreshing qualities make it perfect for outdoor barbecues and camping.
