Hop BroThis month’s new release comes from the Hanafuda label series. Nito Brewery in Omihachiman, Shiga has launched the 8th entry, 'HEFEWEIZEN WITH APPLE & CINNAMON.'
MugiWhat! That already sounds amazing. Apple and cinnamon is basically dessert in beer form!
Hop BroExactly, and the base style is a hefeweizen. It’s a wheat-forward ale known for a soft, fluffy kind of body.
MugiWait, hold on. Hefeweizen sounds like a magic spell. If I say it three times, does a can appear?
Hop BroIf only. It basically means gentle wheat character, so the beer feels smooth and mellow instead of sharp or heavy.
MugiOhh, got it! Then with that apple-pie-like aroma on top, even newer craft beer fans could jump right in.
Hop BroThat’s the idea. It’s built as an easy-drinking flavor beer, with clear fruit-and-spice aromatics and a mild finish.
MugiAnd Nito Brewery stands for Beer for everyone, right? That really matches this approachable vibe!
Hop BroYep. It comes in a 360ml can for 688 yen, and the 6-can pack is 4,125 yen online.
MugiThen it’s settled. I want it chilled right now, and somehow I’m craving apple pie already!
Hop BroThis is definitely a beer worth sharing while admiring the Hanafuda label. I want to taste that apple-and-cinnamon finish now.

This release fits squarely within that philosophy, including the brewery's idea of "Beer for everyone."
