Novel Craft, a craft beer pub in Setagaya, Tokyo, is featuring White Picket Fence from Bellwoods Brewery as its recommendation of the day.
Based in Toronto, Canada, Bellwoods Brewery is known for producing a broad range of styles, from IPAs and sours to saisons. White Picket Fence is one of the brewery’s signature beers: a blended foeder saison made by combining oak-aged beer with a small amount of fresh beer, followed by light dry-hopping and bottle conditioning.
The beer is marked by lively, champagne-like carbonation, lemon-meringue aromatics and a bright hop character. Refined acidity brings balance, while citrus notes and subtle Brett-derived complexity add depth. It is refreshing, but layered enough to reward slower tasting.
For beer drinkers, this is an opportunity to experience the intersection of saison character, oak aging and blending in a single glass. Novel Craft’s selection makes it a natural choice for guests who enjoy exploring nuanced fermentation profiles alongside more familiar craft beer styles.
Novel Craft is located on the second floor of Kazama Building at 4-13-9 Minami-Karasuyama, Setagaya, Tokyo. The pub opens at 5:00 p.m.; availability should be confirmed at the venue.
