Hop BroToday’s spotlight is Kishiwada Beer in Osaka! They’ve got a 12-bottle variety set featuring the winter-limited Hakumai, and it’s seriously exciting.
MugiWait, a limited-edition set with 12 bottles!? What is that, the kind of thing that turns your fridge into a New Year’s festival!
Hop BroThe lineup is great too. Two bottles each of Tekkou, Kurotetsu, and Shirotetsu, plus six bottles of Hakumai. It’s 12 bottles total at 330 ml each, and the price is 7,560 yen including tax. They also offer noshi and simple packaging, so it’s perfect as a gift.
MugiOhhh! That’s really useful for presents! But honestly, the name Hakumai already sounds like a winner, doesn’t it?
Hop BroHakumai goes on limited sale starting at noon on Monday, November 10, 2025. It’s a flavored beer made with sake lees from Isaka Shuzojou in Kishiwada, and the ABV is 5%. They reworked the brewing process from the previous version, aiming for a richer body that pairs easily with winter dishes.
MugiHold on, you said they reworked the brewing process. That’s craftsman talk! So what actually changed? Is it something even my tongue can tell?
Hop BroBasically, it’s about adjusting the aroma and body. They’re bringing out the rich character of the sake lees while keeping it from feeling too heavy, so it should play nicely with hot pot and stews.
MugiI get it! A beer that gets along with dinner! And the standard three are interesting too. The names already sound mechanical and strong!
Hop BroThe regular lineup has character too. Tekkou is a wheat ale with over 50% wheat malt, Kurotetsu is a brown porter with roasted notes, and Shirotetsu is a light ale with a crisp profile. All of them are 5% ABV, so they’re easy to compare. They should be kept refrigerated, and the shelf life is six months from the production date.
MugiA brewery that started from a local ironworks and donates part of its sales to the Kodomo MIRAI Fund Kishiwada is just too wonderful...! A craft beer connected to its hometown is exactly the kind of thing that makes me want to drink tonight already! Big Hop, let’s practice our toast!
The “Variety Set (two bottles each of Tekkou, Kurotetsu, and Shirotetsu, plus six bottles of Hakumai)” sold through Kishiwada Beer’s online shop is designed so customers can enjoy both the regular lineup and a limited edition at once. The set includes a total of 12 bottles, with Tekkou, Kurotetsu, and Shirotetsu each at two bottles, and Hakumai at six bottles, all in 330 ml bottles. The price is 7,560 yen (tax included). It must be refrigerated, and the best-before period is six months from the date of production.
In a notice dated October 20, 2025, the company announced that its new flavor beer, Hakumai, would go on sale in limited quantities starting at noon on Monday, November 10, 2025. Hakumai is a flavored beer made with sake lees from Isaka Shuzojou, a long-established brewery in Senshu, Kishiwada, and has an alcohol content of 5%. The recipe was reworked from the previous sake lees beer, with an emphasis on creating a richer taste that pairs well with winter dishes.
The three standard beers also each have a clear identity. Tekkou is a wheat ale made with more than 50% wheat malt; Kurotetsu is a brown porter with roasted notes and depth; and Shirotetsu is a light ale with a crisp, easy-drinking character. All are 5% alcohol, making them well balanced for side-by-side tasting.
Kishiwada Beer began as a challenge from Hokkai Tekkojyo, an ironworks in Kishiwada, Osaka. The brand highlights its locally rooted approach through brewing with in-house design and in-house production equipment, as well as initiatives such as donating part of its sales to the Kodomo MIRAI Fund Kishiwada. This set, which includes Hakumai made with sake lees from a local brewery, seems like the clearest way to experience the brewery’s direction of creating craft beer connected to the land.
