Heiwa Craft, the craft beer brand of Heiwa Shuzo in Kainan, Wakayama, has announced that the beer brewed for its October 18, 2026 rice harvest experience has been packaged in both cans and kegs.

The beer is AGARA NO GOLDEN ALE. Designed as a light and highly drinkable golden ale, it is accented with the gently sweet aroma of osmanthus and the mild astringency of white tea. The combination adds floral and tea-like layers while keeping the beer approachable and suitable for an autumn outdoor gathering.

According to the brewery’s post, the beer will be enjoyed at the evening BBQ held for participants after the rice harvest experience. Its restrained body and aromatic profile should make it a natural pairing for grilled foods, offering a refreshing drink alongside the meal.

Heiwa Craft is based in Kainan, Wakayama, and is operated by Heiwa Shuzo, a brewery known for its sake-making heritage. The brand develops beers that reflect local ingredients, seasons and regional experiences. AGARA NO GOLDEN ALE follows that approach by connecting a seasonal beer with the hands-on experience of harvesting rice.

The post does not specify whether the beer will be sold to the general public or how long it will be available. For participants, however, it offers a distinctive way to celebrate the harvest: a golden ale created especially for the evening BBQ, with osmanthus fragrance and white tea character in the glass.
