WAYFARER BREWING's 'Classic Malt Pale Ale' Arrives at Kochi Beer Laboratory
Kochi Beer Laboratory in Otesuji, Kochi City, announced in an Instagram post on May 2, 2026 that it had brought in WAYFARER BREWING's guest beer, "Classic Malt Pale Ale." It is introduced as a 5.5% pale ale, adding to the appeal of chasing the latest pour in the city.
Hop BroHey, a new arrival from WAYFARER BREWING just came into Kochi Beer Laboratory on Otesuji in Kochi City. The beer is "Classic Malt Pale Ale," and at 5.5% it's already sounding delicious from the name alone.
MugiWhoa! Classic Malt sounds like nothing but good things ahead! But "classic" malt sounds kind of rugged and maybe a little hard to wrap my head around...
Hop BroThat's the interesting part: it has malt depth but drinks light and easy like a pale ale. In other words, it's "not too heavy, but still has real body."
MugiOhh! Light but full-bodied is a two-way weapon in the beer world. Wait, does that kind of convenient thing really exist?
Hop BroIt does, actually. At a neighborhood beer pub like Kochi Beer Laboratory, the fun of guest beers comes through directly. When the beer name and brewery name are clearly shown, the story starts before you even drink it.
MugiI get it! When the name is visible, it suddenly feels more familiar. And being in 55 Bangai on Otesuji in Kochi City means it's easy to drop by after work, which is perfect.
Hop BroExactly. A place like this can be the starting point for a pub crawl, or the drink you have on the way home. At 5.5%, it's the perfect line: enough momentum to lift your mood, but not so much that you go overboard.
MugiWhat is that! A perfectly balanced 5.5% sounds so nice! It seems great as the first drink in a tasting lineup, and it leaves room to think about the next one too!
Hop BroExactly. News like this is the very joy of chasing the latest pour. When it's announced in an Instagram post, it makes you want to head to the shop right then and there.
MugiI know... just the fact that you can taste it in Kochi makes it feel extra special. Even if you're not traveling, it's lovely to have new discoveries at a neighborhood beer pub.
Hop BroYeah, there's no choice but to go. I feel like I want to have a drink, maybe two, at Kochi Beer Laboratory while checking out the malt aroma.
MugiTotally! It's definitely on my drink-tonight list. Classic Malt Pale Ale, I want to try it soon and nod along with a face that says, "light but hefty!"
