Orize Brewing in Wakayama City has published its April business-day calendar. On April 5, it will take part in the 6th anniversary event for Hakkou Department, where it will also display and sell the collaboration beer "Taiwan TEA ALE" and the Orize Bucket. It will be closed on April 11.
Hop BroWakayama City's Orize Brewing is having some activity in April, with both events and business-schedule changes.
MugiWhoa, really? So it's not just a business notice, but they're even appearing at a fermentation event?
Hop BroExactly. On April 5, they'll be at the Hakkou Department 6th anniversary, and you can also drink the collaboration beer, "Taiwan TEA ALE," at the venue.
MugiTaiwan TEA ALE already sounds delicious, but what exactly is ALE?
Hop BroSimply put, it's a top-fermented beer. Orize uses rice koji, so it has a gentle koji-derived character, and it's interesting when that overlaps with a tea-like aroma.
MugiOhhh! Beer with koji sounds a little mysterious. And hearing that it's gluten-free makes it even more interesting!
Hop BroExactly. It's a nanobrewery born in Wakayama City in 2019, and using rice koji as the main ingredient is what makes it unique.
MugiAnd on the day itself, there'll also be a display and sale of the Orize Bucket, right? Being able to make koji at home is irresistible for fermentation fans!
Hop BroThat's right. And in the evening there'll even be a casual koji talk with Mr. Gomi of Gomi Shoyu, so it's basically a fermentation cultural festival.
MugiAnd April 11 is a closing day, but it's nice that there's a proper reason. I'd want to check the latest information while aiming for the taproom on Fridays and Saturdays!
Hop BroYeah, months like this are great because the brewery's appeal comes through even outside the brewery itself. Reading this makes me want to have a drink already.
MugiTotally! After hearing about fermentation, a glass of Taiwan TEA ALE has to be delicious, no question!
Orize Brewing (Wakayama City, Wakayama Prefecture) announced its April business-day calendar on Instagram. Founded in Wakayama City in 2019, the brewery is known as a nanobrewery that makes gluten-free beer using rice koji as its main ingredient.
On April 5, head to Hakkou Department
On April 5, Mr. Kinoshita will appear at Hakkou Department's 6th anniversary event. The post says he will be there from the 11:00 opening until around 18:00, and the venue will also serve the collaboration beer with Hakkou Department, "Taiwan TEA ALE." From the evening, there will also be a talk session with Mr. Gomi of Gomi Shoyu, casually discussing koji.
In addition, there will be a display and sales of the "Orize Bucket," which lets you make koji at home. It looks like a chance to speak directly with staff from the brewery, who usually focus on production.
Closed on April 11
Meanwhile, Saturday, April 11 will be a closed day. The taproom will be closed because the company will appear as a guest at the online general meeting of the Japan Fermentation Culture Association. Orize Brewing's tasting space is normally open only on Fridays and Saturdays, but hours may change depending on brewing and event appearances, so checking the latest information on Instagram and Facebook is recommended.
In addition to creating its own gluten-free beer using rice koji, Orize Brewing also participates in events centered on fermentation culture. April looks set to be a month when people can experience the brewery's activities even outside the brewery itself.
