Far Yeast Brewing Introduces 16 Beers, Led by Far Yeast White
An Instagram post from Far Yeast Brewing featured a lineup of 16 beers led by Far Yeast White. The flagship Far Yeast White is a saison at 5.0% ABV, and its aroma-focused design reflects the brewery's source-brewery style in Kosuge Village, Yamanashi.
Hop BroFar Yeast Brewing's Instagram posted an update introducing 16 beers at once. At the front is the standard Far Yeast White, and that's definitely not something to miss.
MugiWhoa, White is first! Putting the flagship front and center like that feels confident and cool.
Hop BroExactly. Far Yeast White is a core saison at 5.0% ABV. True to the source brewery in Kosuge Village, Yamanashi, it's designed to really bring out the aroma.
MugiWhen I hear saison, it sounds kind of stylish, but what does it actually taste like? Is it soft, but also a little sharp?
Hop BroGood question. Far Yeast White is dry and sharp, with fruity ester aromas and refreshing hop aroma on top. It uses Citra hops, so the aromatic outline is really clean.
MugiWow, that's like a three-part harmony of aroma! Just hearing Citra makes me feel like citrus is about to jump right out.
Hop BroThe post didn't just include the three standards either. It also lined up KAGUA Blanc, Rouge, and Saison, so the collaboration products are all there too. It's fun to see how broad the brand has become.
MugiWhat, so it's a lineup of 16 different beers? Seeing that many together makes it feel like a beer encyclopedia, and it's exciting just to look at!
Hop BroAnd "White farm house yeast" was introduced as a recipe-revised version. Keeping White as the base while still pushing the boundaries of flavor development really feels like Far Yeast.
MugiOh, that's interesting. Showing that kind of range in flavor is cool. If there are standards, limited releases, and collaborations, even choosing the next bottle to drink sounds fun!
Hop BroExactly. Because their foundation is aromatic, drinkable standards, they're easy to pair with everyday meals, and the awards they've accumulated in competitions make perfect sense. This definitely makes me want to start tonight with White.
MugiYeah, tonight starts with White! After the toast, I want us to figure out together which one to try next from the 16!
The Instagram post lined up 16 beers, including the three core standards Far Yeast White, Far Yeast Blonde, and Far Yeast IPA, as well as KAGUA Blanc, Rouge, and Saison, plus collaboration products and derivative recipes such as "Otomo no Sake" and "White farm house yeast." In particular, "White farm house yeast" was described in the post as a "recipe-modified version of Far Yeast White," showing the breadth of the brand's flavor development.
On the official website, Far Yeast White is described as a saison with a dry, sharp finish. It has fruity ester aromas and refreshing hop aroma, an alcohol content of 5%, and uses Citra hops. With many awards to its name, it is one of the core products of the Far Yeast brand, having earned recognition in domestic and international competitions such as the International Beer Cup and the World Beer Cup.
Far Yeast Brewing is headquartered in Kosuge Village, Kitatsuru District, Yamanashi Prefecture, and brews in the headwaters area of the Tama River that flows through Tokyo. The official website also positions Far Yeast as "a drinkable, aromatic standard beer that makes the appeal of craft beer easy to appreciate," and a design that pairs easily with everyday meals is central to the brand. In this post as well, it was striking that the presentation was built around that philosophy, introducing standards, limited releases, and collaborations across the lineup.
