Four new FARMENTRY beers arrive


The beer pub BEER OLYN, on the third floor in Yaraicho, Kagurazaka, shared its latest tap information in time for its Thursday opening. The highlight is a set of new releases from Nara's FARMENTRY: Dryhopped Pilsner, DAWN, No.02 KISARAGI IPA, No.03 YAYOI IPA, and NICO.

Dryhopped Pilsner is brewed with HBC638 instead of the refreshingly citrusy Motueka. Citrus, tropical fruit, and floral notes overlap, while keeping the crisp finish expected of a pilsner. DAWN is a collaboration beer for BC Beer Trading's 10th anniversary, with aromas of white grape, flowers, and light citrus. No.02 KISARAGI IPA is a West Coast Style IPA with citrus and dank bitterness from Citra, Azacca, and Mosaic. No.03 YAYOI IPA uses Krush, Mosaic, El Dorado, and Ekuanot, bringing forward a hop profile reminiscent of mango and pineapple. NICO is a Milky Ale made with shell ginger, coconut, vanilla, and lactose, and at 3.5% it drinks lightly.

An event with an importer on April 3


The post also announced that an event with an importer is scheduled for 4/3 (Fri). In addition to the previous floral beers using osmanthus and oolong tea, new releases are expected to arrive, along with a small-scale event. Rather than a flashy large event, it sounds like a gathering where you can take your time and appreciate the beers' individual character.
