What kind of brewery is Inuyama Loreley Beer Brewery?

You know, Inuyama Loreley Beer is actually brewed by Koyuzuru Sake Brewery, a Japanese sake brewery founded in Keio 1, or 1848.

What! A sake brewery that has been around for over 170 years making beer? Why beer in the first place?

Inuyama City is a sister city with Sankt Goarshausen in Germany, a town famous for the Lorelei legend on the Rhine. Through that connection, they began brewing authentic German beer in 1998.

Beer was born out of Japan-Germany friendship? That's romantic.

What's more, the technical advisor was Nadia Becker, a German female brewmaster. She's a certified brewing professional recognized in Germany.

The Pilsner is a lager with a pronounced hop bitterness and aroma, while the Weizen has a fruity aroma and a clean finish. The malt and hops are imported from Germany, and the brewing water is pumped from a private well 70 meters underground, drawing from the subsoil water of the Kiso River.

70 meters underground! At that depth, the water quality must be completely different.

And because it's unheated and unfiltered, the beer yeast stays alive in it. The fermentation know-how the sake brewery has cultivated over more than 250 years is fully alive in the beer too.

So it's a fusion of sake-brewing fermentation techniques and German brewing methods!

You can drink it freshly brewed at the adjacent Loreley Beer Hall, and it's also great that you can combine it with sightseeing in the Inuyama castle town area.

Strolling through the castle town and drinking German beer? That's the perfect course. I want to go!
