Onomichi Brewery taps Onomichi Lemon Radler for cyclists
Onomichi Brewery used Instagram to announce Onomichi Lemon Radler, a low-alcohol radler made with local lemons from Onomichi. It fits the cycling culture around the Shimanami Kaido gateway town.
Hop BroI’ve got a good one today: Onomichi Brewery just put Onomichi Lemon Radler on tap.
MugiWhat! That already sounds refreshing! But on tap doesn’t mean some kind of robot mode, right?!
Hop BroNot even close. It means served fresh from the keg, so you get that just-poured brewery vibe.
MugiOkay, got it! Then what is a radler? Is it like beer’s lemonade cousin?
Hop BroPretty much, yeah. It’s a beer mixed with lemonade style, and the word originally means “cyclist” in German.
MugiNo way! That’s basically a cyclist’s beer name! It fits Onomichi, gateway to the Shimanami Kaido, way too perfectly.
Hop BroAnd this one really leans into the place: it uses plenty of Onomichi lemons, with hand-squeezed citrus aroma and soft sweetness.
MugiNice! So instead of the big punch of an IPA, it’s low-alcohol and easygoing, which sounds perfect after a ride.
Hop BroExactly. Plus Onomichi Brewery is a brewpub set inside a renovated 1894 storehouse, so you get that old kura atmosphere with your glass.
MugiAnd if it’s walkable from Onomichi Station, then strolling the shopping street and finishing with a lemony final pint sounds ideal. I want one now!
Onomichi Brewery is a brewpub in Kubo, Onomichi, Hiroshima, set in a renovated kura storehouse built in 1894. The brewery posted to Instagram with a message aimed at cyclists and announced that Onomichi Lemon Radler was on tap.
The beer is a radler, meaning beer cut with lemonade. According to the brewery’s own description, it uses plenty of Onomichi-grown lemons and comes in as a low-alcohol drink with bright citrus aroma and gentle sweetness. The word radler comes from the German word for “cyclist,” which makes the style especially fitting for Onomichi, a well-known cycling gateway to the Shimanami Kaido.
Compared with hop-forward IPAs, this is the kind of beer that feels easier to reach for after a ride: lighter, fresher, and built around refreshment. The brewery’s location is also convenient for visitors walking from Onomichi Station, so it works well as a stop during a shopping-street stroll or as the final pint after a day on the bike. In the quiet atmosphere of the old kura, the combination of local lemons and freshly poured beer feels especially on-brand for Onomichi.
