Hop BroAnd it’s blessed at Senshu Aviation Shrine, then bottled on the morning of the first day of spring as a kind of lucky charm. It’s a beer with a strong event feel.
MugiOhhh! So what style is it? If it has a hard-to-pronounce name, I need to brace myself first!?
Hop BroThe style is Weizenbock. It’s a strong ale with the thickness of wheat malt and ester-driven banana aromas, and the ABV is 8%.
MugiEsters!? We suddenly went straight into science class! So basically, it tastes banana-like and packs a strong punch?
Hop BroExactly, you’ve got it perfectly. It comes in 330 ml bottles, with a fruity aroma and a full, rounded mouthfeel. It’s the kind of beer you savor slowly.
MugiDrinking something that matches a seasonal turning point feels special somehow. Like you’re drinking an amulet!
Hop BroIzumisano Brewing, under the KIX BEER name, carries the local identity of being near Kansai Airport, so the story is rich too. Since it’s limited, checking stock early is the right move.

The craft brewery Izumisano Brewing (KIX BEER), based in Onishi, Izumisano, Osaka, is rolling out "Risshun Daikichi Beer" as its annual start-of-spring project. This announcement spread from an Instagram post made at 14:40 on January 30, 2026.
The official announcement and sales information share two clear points: sales begin on February 4 (the first day of spring), and the release is limited to 2,026 bottles. The beer is designed as a lucky item, blessed at Senshu Aviation Shrine (Senshu Iwafune Shrine) and bottled on the morning of the first day of spring.
The beer style is Weizenbock. It features a rich mouthfeel from wheat malt and a banana-like fruity aroma, with an alcohol content of 8%. It is being offered in 330 ml bottles. The concept balances the drinkability expected of craft beer with the narrative appeal of a seasonal product.
The brewery's background also reflects the character of this project. Izumisano Brewing is based in Onishi, Izumisano City, near Kansai International Airport, and operates under the brand name "KIX," drawn from the airport code. It continues to create products that weave together local identity and travel culture, and Risshun Daikichi Beer is an extension of that approach.
As a beer to drink at a turning point in the year, its appeal lies not only in the flavor but also in the timing. Because it is limited, anyone hoping to get it should check stock soon after the sale date.
