Canal brewing, a brewery located in Oimachi, Shinagawa, Tokyo, is featuring Kamado Brewery’s Kawachi Bankan Sour on its tap list.

Kawachi Bankan is a Japanese citrus known for its fresh aroma, juicy character and gentle bitterness reminiscent of grapefruit. In this sour beer, those citrus qualities are paired with a light acidity, creating a clean and refreshing profile. It should make an especially appealing first pour on a hot, humid day or a palate-cleansing option alongside a meal.

Canal brewing is within walking distance of Oimachi Station and offers beers brewed in-house as well as a rotating selection on tap. The brewery is suited both to drinkers who want to explore beer styles carefully and to those looking for a relaxed after-work stop in the neighborhood.

Rather than focusing on intense hop bitterness, Kawachi Bankan Sour emphasizes acidity and citrus aroma. It can be enjoyed on its own, or paired with lighter dishes, seafood or fried foods. Tap availability may change, so guests should check Canal brewing’s latest updates before visiting.
