Hop BroRikka in Sapporo is releasing FIELD BREW Season One. It’s the first entry in a new series made with barley grown in Urahoro.
MugiWait, Urahoro-grown barley is the star? That beer is basically introducing itself on behalf of the whole field!
Hop BroExactly, and the theme is value in every grain. Very Rikka, turning local ingredients into an actual story.
MugiWhoa, but regenerative brewing means what exactly? It sounds like a finishing move!
Hop BroBasically it’s beer that starts in the field. Not just tasty beer, but brewing that also thinks about soil, farmers, and the region’s future.
MugiOkay, I’m in. And 3.8% ABV sounds light enough that even I’d reach for it with dinner.
Hop BroThe style is not officially specified, but with a dry profile, low sweetness, and that easy second-glass feel, it sounds built for everyday drinking.
MugiSo it’s basically the dinner-table ace! Not flashy, but somehow it ends up in the starting lineup every night.
Hop BroRight, and then you get gentle hop bitterness with a quiet barley note lingering in the finish.
MugiNice! At 330ml and 1,200 yen before tax, it feels a little special while still pretending to be your weeknight buddy.
Hop BroSince it’ll be one I want early at the Patagonia Sapporo sales event on August 29 and 30, I’m tempted to chase it down before the early-September shipments even start.
MugiThat settles it, I want one now! I’ll handle dinner, and you bring the glasses!
RIKKA, the craft beer brand based in Sapporo’s Nishi Ward, will release a new beer called FIELD BREW Season One in September. In its announcement, the brewery describes the beer as the first step in a new regenerative brewing approach, built around the idea of valuing every barley grain to the end.
The beer comes in a 330ml bottle and sits at 3.8% ABV. According to the post, it offers a dry, lightly sweetened profile with pleasant hop bitterness and a quiet barley character lingering underneath. Rather than a beer for special occasions, it is positioned as one that fits naturally at the table and invites another pour. The price is 1,200 yen before tax, with shipments set to begin in early September.
RIKKA takes its name from the Japanese word for snow crystal, and the brewery has long emphasized connections between beer, land, and community. That philosophy is also reflected on its official site, which highlights organic-minded brewing and soil-focused production. The post also notes that the beer will be available at a Patagonia Sapporo sales event on August 29 and 30.
