Forest Brewing Shares an Instagram Update from Its Kaw崎町 Brewery
Forest Brewing, a craft brewery based in Kawasaki, Miyagi, has published a new Instagram post beginning with “Hello 😊.” While the post does not disclose specific product or release details, it offers another glimpse of a brewery known for connecting beer-making with local forest resources.
Hop BroForest Brewing in Kawasaki, Miyagi, has updated Instagram. Forest-connected beer making is what makes this brewery so intriguing.
MugiWhat? The post starts with “Hello 😊”? Could that casual greeting hide news of a new beer?
Hop BroThe beer name and release date are still unknown, but they brew in the upper Kamafusa Dam area, fed by snowmelt from the Zao range.
MugiThat water sounds delicious! But what does beer made with firewood mean—are they boiling it over a campfire?
Hop BroClose! Wood offcuts from their on-site firewood operation fuel a wood-fired boiler that heats brewing water. They turn offcuts into heat.
MugiNo way—every little piece of wood gets a job! I would ask if it was for marshmallows. Brewing with forest resources is wonderful!
Hop BroTheir range is broad: the German pilsner Kikori no Pilsner, the Helles “Asagiri no Helles,” and the Dunkel “Takibi no Dunkel.”
MugiWhat is a Dunkel? A dark-beer superhero? It’s a dark lager from Germany, right?
Hop BroIt does sound powerful! Dunkel is a dark lager with toasty malt character—perfect for its bonfire name. They also make Komorebi Pale Ale and the hazy IPL “KAWASEMI.”
MugiFrom lagers to IPA and wheat beer, how could I choose? While we wait for Instagram news, I want a glass that tastes like forest—cheers!
Forest Brewing in Kawasaki, Miyagi, has updated its Instagram account with a post beginning with a friendly “Hello 😊.” The available post does not specify a beer name, release date, or sales information.
Forest Brewing is located upstream of Kamafusa Dam, an important water source for Sendai, where meltwater from the Zao mountain range flows through the area. The brewery began making craft beer in May 2023 under the concept of brewing beer with firewood.
Its brewing operation is closely connected to its wood business. Offcuts generated at the firewood facility on the same site are used as fuel in a wood-fired boiler, which converts the material into heat for producing the hot water required for brewing. The approach reflects the brewery’s aim to create a new connection between people and forests.
The brewery’s lineup includes the German Pilsner Kikori no Pilsner, Helles-style Asagiri no Helles, Dunkel-style Takibi no Dunkel, and Pale Ale-style Komorebi no Pale Ale. It also produces KAWASEMI, a hazy India pale lager, along with an IPA, hazy IPA, and wheat beers.
Forest Brewing works across both hop-forward ale styles and European lager traditions. Whether the latest Instagram post will lead to a new product or sales announcement has not been confirmed. Further updates are available through the brewery’s official Instagram account and website.
