Mya Brew spotlights Hime Beer’s 2% blood orange fruit ale
Nagoya’s Mya Brew highlighted Hime Beer’s Kraan Blood Orange Fruit Ale from Niihama, Ehime on Instagram. Brewed with Ehime-grown blood oranges and kept at 2% ABV, the beer leans into concentrated fruit character and a low-alcohol profile.
Mya Brew is a brewery in Chikusa Ward, Nagoya, and it began brewing in 2023. In its Instagram post, the brewery highlighted Kraan Blood Orange Fruit Ale from Hime Beer in Niihama, Ehime.
Hime Beer is a brand launched by Ehime Kajushokuhin, a company that has handled citrus processing in Niihama for decades. That background matters here: the brewery has long experience working with juice, peel, puree, and jam, and that know-how carries over into its beers. Kraan uses Ehime-grown blood orange and comes in at 2% ABV, aiming for a fruit-forward profile rather than a hop-led one.
The description points to a beer built around real fruit character and a balanced mix of sweetness and acidity. With such a light alcohol level, it should fit drinkers looking for a beer that feels refreshing without giving up depth.
For a local craft-beer venue like Mya Brew, featuring a beer from another region also shows how broad the craft-beer scene has become in Japan. A fruit ale like this brings another option to the table for drinkers who want something distinctive but easy to approach.
