Shizuoka Craft Beer | SHIZUOKA GOURMET

Aoi Brewing in Shizuoka City has finally come up with what they consider their full O Cha Ale/Green Tea Ale after the two batches of Honnnori O-Cha Ale/A Little Green Tea Ale.

The ingredients are the same, but this is the real article now!

Served on tap
Barley, Maris Otter malt, Pilsner Malt, Topaz hop, Willamette hop, green tea
Unfiltered
Alcohol/ABV: 5.5%
Bubbles: very fine bubbles. Long head. creamy, white
Clarity: slightly smoky (normal considering live yeast and being unfiltered), very clean
Color: light orange color
Aroma: assertive, dry. puissant green tea aroma.
Taste: Assertive and dry attack with plenty of green tea!
Lingers long enough for true tasting before departing on more dry green tea.
Tends to mellow down and show more fruitiness along although it will always depart on a strong green tea note.
Varies little with food but for a softer approach, but still with strong green tea.

Overall: A true Shizuoka green tea craft beer!
A real coming of age after the two precedent green tea ales experiments!
For lovers of very dry beers!
A beer with a big character to be enjoyed all year round although will dperform best on a hot afternoon!
Suggested pairings: BBQ food, stews, sausages.
