Mya Brew, a brewery in Chikusa Ward, Nagoya, has introduced Patina as a limited beer made for its 5th-anniversary festival. The post says the beer is now being served on nitro tap and that only a limited amount is available.

A stock porter built on a three-year-aged stout


Patina is listed as a Nitro Stock Porter. According to the brewery, it starts with a stout that has been aged for three years, then is finished with vanilla beans and cacao nibs. The result is described as having a striking acidity and roast aroma from the long aging process, with dark chocolate and cacao notes becoming more noticeable as the beer warms.

A name that matches the beer's character


The name Patina refers to the finish and character that develop on materials over time. That idea fits the beer well: instead of chasing a loud first impression, it aims for layered complexity that reveals itself gradually in the glass. It is a fitting release for a milestone celebration.

Part of a broader tap lineup


The same post also listed several other beers on tap, showing the range Mya Brew keeps available in its brewery taproom. As a local brewery in Nagoya, it continues to focus on in-house service and seasonally timed releases. Patina stands out as a limited anniversary beer with a clearly defined profile.
