Hop BroToday’s topic is Nutori Brewing in Kawaguchi, Saitama, and their new promo poster for “Nutochan Hojicha Flavor.” The name alone already has me curious.
MugiWait, Nutochan Hojicha Flavor is a beer? My brain just made a tea house and an izakaya fight each other.
Hop BroIt is beer, properly so. The style is Hazy Hojicha Ale, and it’s Nutori Brewing’s first hojicha beer.
MugiWhoa, but what does hazy mean? Please don’t explain it like my foggy morning brain.
Hop BroIn simple terms, it means a cloudy-looking beer. It looks soft and misty, but the aroma and flavor are firmly built around Kagoshima hojicha.
MugiWhat is that, it sounds amazing. Just hearing Kagoshima hojicha makes me imagine that toasty aroma already.
Hop BroThe announcement says it drinks almost like cold-brew hojicha. That mix of ale softness and roasted tea character is the kind of thing that makes brewing nerds grin.
MugiYou just switched into brewing-nerd mode on me. But if I can drink it at Beer Shokudo Nutori near Kawaguchi Station, that sounds like elite fieldwork.
Hop BroThat’s part of the charm, because Nutori Brewing isn’t just a brewery, it also has a private library space and a whole community vibe. Since 2021 they’ve used small tanks to keep making varied house beers.
MugiA place where you can read, eat, and drink is basically the ultimate detour plan. This hojicha beer has to be fun with food.
Hop BroExactly, the food pairing potential sounds strong, and that light summer profile makes me want a glass right now.
MugiThen it’s settled, because I want to drink it now, and you’re absolutely going to toast while muttering about recipe design.
Nutori Brewing, which operates alongside the brewpub Beer Shokudo Nutori in Kawaguchi, Saitama, has announced the completion of the POP for its new beer, Nuto Chan Hojicha Flavor. The brewery has been producing a wide range of house beers from a small setup near Kawaguchi Station since 2021.
This release is described as Nutori Brewing's first hojicha-based beer. Its style is listed as Hazy Hojicha Ale, and the beer is made with hojicha from Kagoshima. Although it looks hazy, the brewery says the aroma and flavor clearly deliver hojicha character. The announcement also frames it as a refreshing beer suited for summer, with a taste reminiscent of cold-brew hojicha.
Nutori Brewing is known not only for brewing beer, but also for building a distinctive local space that includes a food hall and a private library. That background gives this release extra context: it is a beer born from a brewery that is closely tied to its neighborhood and its table. For beer fans, the key point is how Nutori has turned hojicha into a beer that feels both playful and food-friendly.
