MugiWhoa! The name is cute, but it sounds serious inside! What kind of beer is it?
Hop BroThe style is "Brut IPA with Muscat." It’s designed to be dry and light like champagne, with the bright aroma of muscat juice layered on top.
MugiBrut IPA? Is that an IPA you drink while shivering in the cold?
Hop BroThat’s winter barley-chan! "Brut" means super dry, and they ferment the sugars thoroughly with clean yeast and enzymes to make it razor-sharp.
MugiOhhh! So even though it’s not sweet, it still has that muscat character?
Hop BroThat’s the smart part: they add muscat in the later stage of fermentation to keep the aroma and juiciness. And they use New Zealand Nelson Sauvin hops to add a white-wine-like aroma too.
MugiWhat! A beer that could totally sneak into a wine tasting! How strong is it numerically?
Hop BroABV 6.5%, IBU 20, so the bitterness is restrained. And it’s keg-only, no cans. It’s brewed at Far Yeast Brewing's Genryu Brewery in Kosuge Village, Yamanashi, so this is a "local-only experience" in Gotanda.
MugiIf there’s a limited release with pairings, I have to go! I want to toast right now with that dry, muscat-scented beer with Hop-nii!
Far Yeast Brewing Co., Ltd. began offering "Onegai Si Muscat Brut" exclusively at Far Yeast Tokyo (Nishi-Gotanda, Shinagawa Ward, Tokyo) starting Wednesday, February 25, 2026. The style is described as "Brut IPA with Muscat." It will not be sold in cans, and is being served only as 15L keg beer.
Balancing "dryness" and "fruit character" in the beer's design
According to the company’s announcement, fermentation is carried out with a clean yeast and enzymes to create a light, dry body typical of Brut IPA. In addition, muscat is added in the later stage of fermentation, leaving a juicy aroma and flavor. The hops used are Nelson Sauvin from New Zealand, layering in an aroma reminiscent of white wine.
The published specs are ABV 6.5% and IBU 20. The ingredients are malt (produced in Belgium and Germany), muscat juice, and hops. With a bright aroma front and center and restrained bitterness, it appears designed to be easy to enjoy with food.
A limited release brewed at the brewery in Kosuge Village, Yamanashi
The production site is Genryu Brewery in Kosuge Village, Kitatsuru District, Yamanashi Prefecture. Far Yeast Brewing launched the brewery in 2017 and moved its headquarters functions to Kosuge Village in 2020. According to official information, Kosuge Village is said to offer an environment well suited to brewing, thanks to its cold climate and water from the Tama River headwaters.
"Onegai Si Muscat Brut" is positioned as a locally limited beer experience at the company’s directly operated Gotanda location, backed by the production base at Genryu Brewery. Pairing offerings are also planned at the store, making it worth watching how the Brut IPA’s dryness and muscat aroma will complement the food.
