A new hazy beer is ready

Mikazuki Brewery, which makes craft beer in Wakayama’s Misono shopping arcade, posted on Instagram on June 20 that a new beer has been completed. The caption says the brewery has made a “heavy” hazy beer, suggesting a hop-forward, cloudy style.

On its official site, the brewery says it produces and sells craft beer with a strong focus from the owner. It also operates a tasting-friendly shop in Misono shopping arcade, and describes the production area and tasting room as having dark walls and ceilings that evoke the night. The dimly lit space, with a floating crescent-moon sign, is part of the brewery’s identity.

The post did more than announce the beer itself. It also said obanzai will be available and invited followers to watch a soccer match together. That makes the post feel less like a simple product note and more like an invitation to enjoy beer, food, and the game in one place.

No product name or release date was given in the post, but the message is clear: Mikazuki Brewery is steadily moving ahead with new brewing work from its base in Wakayama. For beer fans, that is reason enough to keep an eye on what comes next.
