Kobe-based beer pub Onaji Ana no Mujina is featuring Cosmic Zyme, a collaboration between Japan’s Uchu Brewing and Zymarium, a meadery from Orlando, Florida.

Cosmic Zyme is a smoothie sour ale made with peach, strawberry, dragon fruit, yuzu, lemon, and honey. The soft sweetness of peach forms the core of the beer, while strawberry and dragon fruit add a broad fruit character. Yuzu and lemon bring a bright, refreshing acidity, and honey contributes a rounded sweetness and additional depth.

The beer has an alcohol content of 4.5% and is packaged in 350ml cans. Its use of honey reflects the collaboration with Zymarium, connecting Uchu Brewing’s fruit-forward sour beer style with the meadery’s fermentation expertise.

Zymarium has already gained recognition among Japanese craft beverage fans through its connection with the meadery ANTELOPE. For drinkers who enjoy expressive fruit beers, Cosmic Zyme offers a different experience from a conventional sour ale, combining smoothie-like fruit intensity with tartness and honeyed richness.

Onaji Ana no Mujina is a Kobe beer pub located in Nakayamate-dori, Chuo Ward. The intimate pub is a natural stop for those who want to explore domestic and international craft beer selections. Cosmic Zyme is an especially interesting choice for drinkers looking for a fruit-driven, tart, and unconventional pour.
