San.publichouse, a beer pub located in Uehara, Shibuya, Tokyo, has introduced TENYA PRE-DAWN DOWN from Aozora Brewery in Fukuoka. The beer is presented in the pub’s Instagram post as an Imperial Gose.

TENYA PRE-DAWN DOWN is a sour ale inspired by the gose style. Its profile is described as having juicy acidity and sweet aromas reminiscent of apple, peach and white grape. Bitterness is restrained, while a gentle mineral character and dry finish help keep the beer refreshing. At 8% ABV, it offers more weight and intensity than a typical light sour beer.

The combination of bright acidity, subtle saltiness and a dry finish should make it a versatile pairing for food. It may appeal to drinkers who enjoy sour ales and gose, as well as those looking for complexity beyond hop bitterness.

The beer is also known for receiving medals at the International Beer Cup. For craft beer fans in Tokyo, this is an opportunity to try a distinctive Fukuoka-brewed beer in the relaxed setting of San.publichouse, a neighborhood pub where rotating beers can be enjoyed. Availability and serving sizes should be confirmed at the venue.
