A new beer at a Kiyosato classic

ROCK, the beer pub in Kiyosato, Hokuto City, Yamanashi, has started serving 水出しCOFFEE LAGER. According to the restaurant's Instagram, the beer is made with lightly roasted Ethiopian coffee beans. It is a coffee-lager style release that adds a new option to the house lineup.

ROCK is a long-established restaurant founded in 1971. It has a spacious 250-seat dining room and a garden out front, and it is best known for the ROCK beef curry that has been on the menu since the beginning. Beer is part of the identity here too, with brewing carried out in the basement, so food and local beer have long been linked at this place.

This new 水出しCOFFEE LAGER adds another layer to that experience. For visitors who come to Kiyosato for the food, the scenery, or the beer, it is a release that fits the setting without changing what ROCK already does well.
