Hop BroToday, the new collaboration brew from Miyazaki's Novoru Brewing, "Nagori," is the hot one.
MugiWhoa, that name already has me curious! What does Nagori taste like?
Hop BroIt's a Session Hazy IPA, and at 4.5% ABV, it's nice and light.
MugiWait, what is session? How can something be light yet still satisfying?
Hop BroBasically, it's designed to keep the drinkability while leaving the aroma firmly in place, aiming for a session version of a hazy beer.
MugiHuh, that sounds serious! I've heard of Nelson Sauvin before, but it sounds kind of strong!
Hop BroThe hops are Nelson Sauvin, Riwaka Kief, Motueka, and Citra, and they layer lime, grapefruit, white grape, and gooseberry notes.
MugiWhat is that, a fruit stand!? Getting even white grape aromas sounds luxurious!
Hop BroAnd this one is a collaboration with Fukuoka's craft liquid bar STANDard SHOP, and it's the 7th installment in Novoru Brewing's emotion series.
MugiThe 7th installment, Nagori really feels like a culmination. Drinking this before summer sounds pretty blissful!
Hop BroIt fits Novoru's mission to make people happy with the best beer, so this is definitely the kind of beer that makes you want to go out and drink it.
MugiYeah, it's settled then! Let's go drink "Nagori," light and refreshing together!
The seventh collaboration brew is "Nagori"
On May 22, 2026, Novoru Brewing introduced its new beer "Nagori" on Instagram. The style is Session Hazy India Pale Ale, and the alcohol content is 4.5%. The hops used are Nelson Sauvin, Riwaka Kief, Motueka, and Citra, and it was brewed as a collaboration with Fukuoka craft liquid bar "STANDard SHOP".
The post explains that the beer layers a bright, lively aroma reminiscent of lime peel with juicy fruit notes evoking grapefruit, along with nuances of white grapes and gooseberries. It is also characterized by a crisp drinking impression while delivering a level of satisfaction that does not feel like 4.5% ABV.
For Novoru Brewing, this is the 7th installment in its emotion series. Following the previous collaboration, "Roman / Non Dry Hopped Pale Ale," this time the brewery says it took on its first "session version of a hazy" beer. Working from its accumulated experience, the team built the recipe while keeping in mind how to balance the lush character associated with hazy beers and the drinkability expected of a session IPA.
Novoru Brewing is a brewery that opened in January 2024 in the Aoi district of Miyazaki City. On its official website, it sets out a mission to "make people happy with the best beer", and while centering on IPA and pale ale, it also works on classic styles such as Helles and Weizen. This "Nagori" seems to be a beer that clearly reflects that design philosophy.
The post presents it as a light, refreshing beer to enjoy just before summer. At this point, there is no mention of a sales start date or a serving start date, so attention is first focusing on the finished result of this collaboration brew.
