A Saison from the Foothills of Mount Fuji

BRIGHT BLUE BREWING, a brewpub located in Fujiyoshida, Yamanashi, has highlighted its saison MYALE SCINE02. The beer is characterized by layered aromas from the yeast and a spicy flavor profile. According to the post, its complexity may appeal not only to craft beer fans but also to people who generally prefer wine.

The post connects the beer with the cultural landscape around Mount Fuji. After a Fujisan tea gathering, graphic designer and tea enthusiast Kenya Hara reportedly visited BRIGHT BLUE BREWING in search of a beer from the brewery. Hara is also known for his involvement in the founding of MUJI and for hosting wine-focused tea gatherings.

The visit also included an interest in an exhibition at the neighboring gallery. PORTRAIT LAB EXHIBITION “MY HAND” was listed as running from October 2 through October 25, open from 11:00 to 17:00 on Fridays through Mondays.

With its combination of locally rooted culture, art, and freshly brewed beer, BRIGHT BLUE BREWING offers a distinctive stop in Fujiyoshida. MYALE SCINE02 is a beer to seek out for its yeast-driven aroma and spicy saison character. Availability should be confirmed with the brewpub before visiting.
