Choryo Shuzo Releases October Set Featuring French Pilsner and Autumn Hazy IPA
Choryo Shuzo in Koryo, Nara, is offering an October variety set featuring two new craft beers: three bottles each of FRENCH PILSNER and HAZY IPA Autumn. Both beers were filled on October 21, 2026, with shipping beginning October 22.
Hop BroChoryo Sake Brewery in Nara has released a six-bottle October set: three French Pilsners and three autumn Hazy IPAs.
MugiWhoa! Two contrasting styles in one set? I need to clear fridge space immediately!
Hop BroThe FRENCH PILSNER has a gentle French-hop aroma and a crisp, polished pilsner profile.
MugiWhat exactly is a pilsner? It sounds like beer class president!
Hop BroThat is surprisingly close! A pilsner is a clean, light lager—basically a great partner for food.
MugiNice! Fried food and sashimi are both invited. I am already planning the menu!
Hop BroThen there is HAZY IPA Autumn, the 2026 fall release in the seasonal series, made as an Amber Hazy IPA.
MugiHazy means cloudy, right? So it is deliciously cloudy, unlike my glasses?
Hop BroExactly—and no wiping required! Haze from yeast and hops often gives IPA a soft, juicy texture.
MugiA crisp pilsner and a plush autumn IPA from one brewery—Choryo's range is wild!
Hop BroBoth were filled on October 21 and are best enjoyed within 30 days of filling. Refrigerate them and drink them fresh.
MugiGot it—these are for cheers, not aging! I want to open the pilsner first and roll straight into the autumn IPA!
Choryo Shuzo, based in Koryo, Kitakatsuragi District, Nara, is selling the “October New Variety Set (6 New Bottles) A” through its online shop.
The set contains three 360ml bottles of FRENCH PILSNER and three bottles of HAZY IPA Autumn. It is made up exclusively of the two new releases and is priced at ¥3,450 before tax, or ¥3,795 including tax. Shipping and an additional ¥330 chilled-delivery fee apply, and the beer cannot be purchased together with non-beer products.
A clean pilsner with French hops
FRENCH PILSNER is described by the brewery as a refined, clean pilsner with a gentle aroma from French hops. Its crisp profile should make it a natural choice for pairing with food, while allowing the character of the hops to remain subtle and balanced.
An Amber Hazy IPA for autumn
HAZY IPA Autumn is part of Choryo Shuzo’s seasonal Hazy IPA series. The 2026 autumn edition is presented as an Amber Hazy IPA, offering a seasonal variation on the style’s characteristic haze and soft, rounded mouthfeel.
Both beers were filled on October 21, 2026, and the brewery recommends consuming them within 30 days of filling. Shipping begins October 22, with November 10 listed as the final delivery date. To enjoy the beers at their freshest, customers should refrigerate them upon arrival and drink them promptly.
Known primarily for sake brewing, Choryo Shuzo has also expanded into craft beer and operates a taproom. This set offers a concise look at that brewing range, pairing a bright, restrained pilsner with a fuller, hazier IPA in one six-bottle selection.
