WakuWaku Brewery in Nomi, Ishikawa Prefecture, introduced its spring-inspired Kenrokuen Sakura Ale on Instagram. The images in the post show a retail display lined with pink cans and a notice board decorated with cherry blossoms, and the cans clearly show a 3.5% alcohol-by-volume marking.

Kenrokuen Sakura Ale is known as a seasonal release finished using yeast collected from the double cherry blossoms of Kenrokuen. It is distributed as a spring-limited canned product and has emphasized floral aromas derived from cherry blossoms along with a fruity drinking profile. In addition to its eye-catching appearance, the recipe’s modest 3.5% strength makes it easy to pair with hanami picnics and spring meals.

WakuWaku Brewery is known for making beer that reflects local ingredients and the stories of the land. As a brewery rooted in Ishikawa Prefecture, its commitment to local craftsmanship continues, and this post too conveys a world that feels as if the local spring has been sealed right into the can. The appeal of this beer is supported by both the clarity of a seasonal limited release and the background that evokes memories of its place of origin.
