New release: Pecora

Pecora Beer, a small craft brewery in Aso Ward, Kawasaki, introduced a new beer called Pecora on its official Instagram account. The post lists it as an American IPA with 7.0% ABV and 68 IBU.

According to the brewery’s description, the beer is a pale, modern take on a classic IPA. It is said to offer tropical aromas, a refreshing palate, and a clean bitterness. The hop bill includes U.S.-grown Cryo Mosaic and Cryo Idaho7, along with New Zealand Riwaka.

Pecora Beer is led by a brewer who also holds beer judge qualifications. On its website, the brewery says it focuses on clean yet bold American-style beers, especially hop-forward styles. It also operates a taproom called Beer Kitchen next to the brewery, where fresh draft releases can be enjoyed on site.

Seen in that context, Pecora fits neatly into the brewery’s current direction: a well-structured IPA that emphasizes hop aroma and a polished drinking experience rather than aggressive showiness. For fans of the style, it is a release worth noting.
