Nomcraft Brewing Releases a New Lineup of Canned Beers from Aridagawa, Wakayama
Nomcraft Brewing, based in Aridagawa Town, Aridagawa District, Wakayama Prefecture, is expanding its lineup of new canned beers. With styles ranging from The Beast and Banana Kick to more distinctive offerings, the lineup shows the brewery's broad brewing ambitions.
Hop BroNomcraft Brewing has really rolled out a batch of new canned beers from Aridagawa Town in Wakayama.
MugiWhoa, that many? An expanded lineup means the shelves must be getting crowded.
Hop BroAnd they’re doing it from a brewery renovated out of an old nursery school, which really fits Nomcraft’s town-building mindset.
MugiWhat? A nursery renovation as the beer-making site? That has a little drama to it.
Hop BroOne of the highlights is The Beast, a collaboration with Brew Beast Brewing in Iwate.
MugiThat name already sounds fierce! But is a Hazy Triple IPA fluffy on the outside and a beast in alcohol?
Hop BroExactly. They also used an experimental yeast to bring out pineapple aromatics, leading into citrus and stone-fruit notes.
MugiOh wow! So it’s basically like a fruit stand, a total tropical blast?
Hop BroAnd Banana Kick is a Banana Weizen made with banana, with rich banana character and creamy orange notes riding on the softness you expect from a wheat beer.
MugiAww, that sounds gentle, but still really distinctive. Wheat-beer softness sounds like it would just melt you the second you take a sip.
Hop BroThey’ve also got Weizen Doppelbock, Imperial Brown Ale, West Coast Pilsner, and Extra Pale Ale in the mix, so the range is huge.
MugiWith that many choices, it’d be hard to decide, but it sounds fun! Today I want to start with The Beast and then chase it with Banana Kick.
