Hitachino White Ale, Red Rice, Golden Kölsch

Craft Beer’s From Japan

Have a nice cold beer to compliment one of our delicious starters like our Kemuri Garlic Pizza or Crispy Shrimp! Kemuri carries many different craft beers from Japan on tap and bottles. We try to change our selection monthly which also depends on what is currently available so please stop by and ask us what’s new! Here’s a few new beers we currently have.

Hitachino Nest White Ale & Red Rice

Hitachino Nest, brewed by Kiuchi Brewery in Ibaraki, Japan has become well known for their craft beers and is hard to come by, especially on tap. The Hitachino Nest White Ale is brewed in the tradition of a Belgian style white beer with coriander, nutmeg, orange peel and orange juice. A great light beer with a slight citrus aroma. A great beer to start your meal and is one of Hitachino’s top selling beers.

The Hitachino Nest Red Rice Ale is a Belgian Strong Pale Ale that is brewed with a special red rice. Complex sake like flavors with malt sweet notes. Hints of Strawberries in the nose and palate that give an intriguing mix of sake, malt and bitter notes in the finish.

Golden Kölsch by Niigata Beero Co.

The Golden Kölsch by Niigata Beer Co. uses their Eurpoean Kölsch as a base to create a golden, darker Kölsch. Not your original Kölsch with a bright yellow color that your used to. With a dark amber brown color with a head that will phase out quite quickly, for a beer that’s 7%, it will go down quite easy being light, smooth and refreshing with some tart leaving a slight sour aftertaste.
