Fukuoka Craft Brewing releases GohGan collaboration saison
Fukuoka Craft Brewing is offering GohGan Green Tea and Yuzu, a collaboration beer with the Hakata restaurant GohGan. The saison uses yuzu from Oita and tea from Yame in Fukuoka, with 5% ABV and a profile centered on green tea aroma and citrus notes.
A return collaboration built around tea and yuzu
Fukuoka Craft Brewing's GohGan Green Tea and Yuzu is a collaboration beer that continues last year's project with GohGan. The brewery describes it as a beer made with yuzu from Oita and tea from Yame City in Fukuoka Prefecture.
The beer is brewed as a saison / happoshu and sits at 5% ABV. It is listed at 646 yen, with JAN code 4595987403235. According to the product page, the beer opens with a soft green tea aroma when poured, followed by a citrusy yuzu character that fits the season well.
GohGan is a Hakata restaurant created by chef Takeshi Fukuyama of French restaurant Goh and Gaggan Anand of Bangkok's Gaggan Anand, a pairing that gives the collaboration a clear culinary context. This is not just a fruit-and-herb beer; it also reflects a restaurant-driven perspective on flavor, pairing, and table use.
The brewery itself is based in Okagaki, Fukuoka, and uses natural water drawn from 50 meters underground. Fukuoka Craft Brewing says this medium-hard water is essential to the kind of beer it aims to make. That local water, together with regional tea and yuzu, gives this release a strong sense of place.
As a Fukuoka-made craft beer, GohGan Green Tea and Yuzu sits comfortably between brewery character and restaurant collaboration. It looks especially suited to drinkers who want a saison with a clear aromatic profile and a defined citrus edge.
