Aichi Beer Tasting: Y Market Brewery-Trinity Black

AOI BEER STAND owned by Aoi Brewery in Miyuki Cho, Aoi Ku, Shizuoka City, has the merit to offer on tap other craft beers from Shizuoka Prefecture and the rest of Japan, but you do have to hurry as they usually served only one keg before switching to another brew!

This beer brewed by Y Market Brewery in Nagoya, Aichi prefecture, is called “Trinity Black” because it is made with three different Belgian yeasts: Saison, Abi and Trappiste. Black stands for the color of the beer!
