Great Dane Brewing rolls out WHITE ALE in shops and online
Great Dane Brewing has expanded WHITE ALE sales from early Seven-Eleven locations in Miyagi to its restaurant shop and online store. The Akiu brewery also introduced a new red tote bag alongside the beer.
Hop BroToday’s topic is Great Dane Brewing in Akiu, and their expanded WHITE ALE release is pretty big news.
MugiWait, what! The one that was first sold at Seven-Eleven in Miyagi now has more places to buy it?
Hop BroExactly. Now you can get it at the restaurant shop and the online store too, so it’s brewery trip or home order either way.
MugiOooh! But what kind of beer is WHITE ALE? The name sounds stylish, but I can’t picture the flavor at all!
Hop BroIt’s a wheat-based white ale, and it brings out phenolic yeast aroma along with bright citrus notes.
MugiWhat is that?! “Phenolic” sounds way too intense. It’s giving final boss energy!
Hop BroIt sounds technical, but think clove-like spice or a soft white-flower impression. Add the wheat’s smooth, gentle mouthfeel, and it goes down easily in hot weather.
MugiOhhh, nice! And at 550 yen it feels easy to try, plus there’s even a new red tote bag? They really came prepared.
Hop BroYep, the tote is 1,500 yen. The Akiu spot is part brewery, part restaurant, and with families playing cornhole outside, it has this super easygoing atmosphere that pulls you in.
MugiAfter hearing that, I want to grab one at the shop and then order more online. I want a glass right now!
Hop BroSame here. It really feels like the next step after the Seven-Eleven launch, and now I just want a properly chilled WHITE ALE in my hand.
A new sales rollout during Obon
In an Instagram post dated August 15, Great Dane Brewing announced that WHITE ALE is now available at its restaurant shop and online store. The beer had previously been released early at participating Seven-Eleven stores across Miyagi Prefecture, so this update broadens where customers can buy it.
WHITE ALE is presented as a refreshing beer with bright citrus aromas, gentle spice notes, and a smooth wheat-driven mouthfeel. The post lists the price at 550 yen and positions it as a good fit for the warmer season.
The brewery also introduced a new red tote bag, priced at 1,500 yen. That addition expands its souvenir lineup.
Akiu brewery context
The same post noted that the first clear sunshine during the Obon holiday had finally arrived, and showed children enjoying cornhole outdoors. Cornhole is a simple American game in which players throw bean bags at a board with a hole in it.
Founded in Wisconsin in 1994, Great Dane Brewing now operates in Akiu, Taihaku Ward, Sendai, where its brewery and restaurant offer fresh beer in a setting designed for both locals and travelers. The post reflects that mix of product news and on-site atmosphere.
