Kamiyama Beer Brewery (Tokushima) announced on its official Instagram on February 28, 2026, that it will serve its new release "Garden Honey Ale." The taproom will offer it in a limited run on March 1 from 10:00 to 18:00, and the brewery also announced the launch of its plum beer, "YAMAYAMA KURUKURU," on the same day.
Hop BroSpring news is here: Tokushima's Kamiyama Beer Brewery is offering its new "Garden Honey Ale" exclusively in the taproom on March 1 from 10:00 to 18:00!
MugiWhat! It's not just a six-hour limited release, it's only available for one day? That's super rare!
Hop BroExactly, and the style is described as a "light and aromatic honey wheat ale." It's 4.5% ABV and uses honey from Garden Honey, so it's a light, easy-drinking style.
MugiWhat is that! Is a wheat ale just beer that tastes like wheat bread?
Hop BroClose, but not quite! A wheat ale uses wheat malt, which gives it a soft mouthfeel and a fluffy aroma. The idea is to layer honey aromatics on top of that and give it a springlike finish.
MugiOhhh! So it's basically "sipping a flower-viewing picnic"! The kind of drink that makes you smile all afternoon!
Hop BroAnd on the same day, the plum beer "YAMAYAMA KURUKURU" also goes on sale. DIY sausages will be available from around 2 p.m., so the pairing is already built in, which is pretty slick.
MugiPlum beer and sausages!? That's festival-level information overload! My stomach and my excitement are both going wild!
Hop BroThat's so Kamiyama Beer Brewery. They started in the mountains of Shikoku in 2018, and they're great at blending overseas craft culture with Kamiyama's local ingredients. They're really good at putting the seasons into a glass.
MugiIt's settled then! From Garden Honey Ale to YAMAYAMA KURUKURU, let's go have our own "Kamiyama spring full course" with our throats!
Kamiyama Beer Brewery in Kamiyama Town, Tokushima, has unveiled a new release for the arrival of spring. In a post published on February 28, 2026, the brewery announced that flowers have begun blooming in town and the plum trees at the brewery are also coming into full bloom, setting the seasonal scene for the new beer being offered at the taproom.
The highlight this time is "Garden Honey Ale," made with honey from Garden Honey. The post describes it as a "4.5%" and a "light and aromatic honey wheat ale," indicating a wheat ale designed for a light drinking experience with honey-derived aroma. It will be served on Sunday, March 1, from 10:00 to 18:00 at KAMIYAMA BEER.
Also announced was the start of sales for the freshly made plum beer "YAMAYAMA KURUKURU." Alongside the drinks served that day, the post also mentioned DIY sausages, which will be available from around 2:00 p.m., presenting a taproom experience that goes beyond beer alone and includes food pairings as well.
Kamiyama Beer Brewery is a brewery based in Kamiyama Town. According to its official information, it is run by Manus Sweeney and Sayaka Abe, who moved there from Amsterdam, and it began in 2018 in the mountains of Shikoku. Its approach of combining craft culture cultivated overseas with the local character of Kamiyama is also reflected in new releases like this one, which make use of local ingredients. It seems like another release typical of the brewery, one that captures the changing seasons in a glass.
