Far Yeast Brewing to Release 'Far Yeast Peach White' with Yamanashi Peaches on August 19
Far Yeast Brewing, based in Kosuge, Yamanashi, will begin selling its limited release 'Far Yeast Peach White' on August 19. The beer uses 250 kg of fresh peaches from Peach Senka Yamashita in Yamanashi City, alongside saison yeast, Citra hops, and local wheat.
Hop BroI've got a good one today: Far Yeast Peach White from Far Yeast Brewing. It launches on August 19 as a limited brew made with ripe Yamanashi peaches.
MugiWait, 250 kilos of peaches? That is not subtle. That's a full-on fruit invasion!
Hop BroAnd they're not random peaches, either. It's fresh Hikawa Hakuhou from Peach Senka Yamashita in Yamanashi City, which gives a soft, elegant aroma.
MugiOkay, but the article says a saison-based brew. What does that even mean? It sounds like beer wearing a fancy hat.
Hop BroSaison is a Belgian light and fragrant style, so it drinks crisp and lively. Here, the saison yeast helps lift the peach aroma instead of burying it.
MugiOhhh, so Citra's citrusy hop character is basically adding brightness to the peach? That's a pretty strong supporting role.
Hop BroExactly, and with local Yumekaori wheat plus secondary fermentation in package, they get really fine carbonation too. If I keep going, this becomes a lecture.
MugiPlease do not turn this into Beer University. So that means extra sparkle mode for the bubbles, right?
Hop BroThat is surprisingly accurate. At 5.0% ABV and 20 IBU, it's built for a soft easy finish, so the peach, citrus, and bitterness stay balanced. It comes in 350ml cans and 15L kegs too.
MugiAnd it fits right into the Brewed with YAMANASHI idea, right? Local fruit, summer vibes, and now I want one immediately.
Hop BroSame here. I want to catch that ripe peach aroma right as it opens up, nice and cold, before the first sip.
MugiThen it's settled. On August 19, we're going straight to a cold pour before you turn this into a three-hour seminar!
Far Yeast Brewing is adding a peach-focused seasonal beer to its lineup from its Genryu Brewery in Kosuge, Yamanashi. The release date is August 19. The beer uses 250 kg of fresh Hikawa Hakuho peaches grown by Peach Senka Yamashita in Yamanashi City, making it a clearly local, limited-edition product.
The beer is built on a saison base, with expressive yeast-driven aromatics, the citrusy character of Citra hops, and the soft texture of locally grown Yumekaori wheat. It also undergoes secondary fermentation in the bottle and can, which gives it a fine, gentle carbonation. The listed specs are 5.0% ABV and 20 IBU, with packaging in 350 ml cans and 15 L kegs.
This release fits naturally into Far Yeast Brewing's long-running Brewed with YAMANASHI initiative, which highlights Yamanashi-grown ingredients and local agricultural resources. The brewery has used the project to promote the region through beers made with peaches, plums, grapes, and other produce.
Peach Senka Yamashita is described as a grower that uses soil-friendly, nature-oriented farming methods. That background makes 'Far Yeast Peach White' more than just a fruit beer: it is a seasonal expression of local fruit, regional brewing, and careful fermentation. Chilled and freshly poured, it should show both the peach aroma and the clean finish of a well-made saison-style beer.
