About Kimigahama Brut IPA
Choshi Cheers developed the beer by reusing sushi rice made with rice, vinegar, sugar, and salt as a secondary brewing ingredient. The brewing process was adjusted to preserve the rice’s characteristics while creating a light, crisp, and dry Brut IPA designed to pair with sushi, fish, and delicate white-fish dishes.
