Yoho Brewing has introduced Brewprint Series, a new line built around what its brewers are exploring and learning in the brewery. Based in Nagano, the company has long balanced a wide range of beer styles with a focus on quality, and this series brings the brewing process itself into the spotlight.

The first beer in the series is a West Coast IPA. According to the official description, it emphasizes bold hop aroma, a clean and crisp bitterness, and a juicy character. The beer comes in at 7% ABV, offering a solid presence without feeling overly heavy.

The release is planned for mid-August and will be available in limited quantities, with cans sold primarily through Yoho Brewing’s online channels. Draft service is also expected at select venues, giving drinkers different ways to experience the beer.

Founded in 1997, Yoho Brewing has spent years refining its brewing approach while building familiar brands for Japanese craft beer drinkers. Brewprint Series looks like an extension of that work: not just a new beer, but a way to share the brewery’s ongoing experiments. The West Coast IPA is a fitting first step for a series built on technical curiosity and clear flavor intent.
