Style: Irish Red Ale w/ Okinawan Black TeaABV: 4.5% / IBU: 20 / FG: 1.012 / SRM: 13Fermentables: Mars Malt, Carahell, Carapils, MelanoidinHops: East Kent GoldingsYeast: WLP004Additional Ingredients: Okinawan Black TeaFollowing on from last year, this year we once again brewed a collaborative beer with Oimachi beer bar Canal brewing. We used "Benifuki," a variety of tea specifically for black tea, from Kanaigawa Tea, which has been cultivating and processing locally grown, pesticide-free black tea in Nago City, Okinawa Prefecture for nearly 70 years. We used this rare tea leaf to create a beer based on Irish red ale, a traditional Irish style.Its deep reddish-brown color and rich malt aroma reminiscent of caramel, with a subtle hint of elegant black tea peeking through the background, create a mellow taste with gentle carbonation, and the gentle sweetness of the malt is well-balanced with the rich body and subtle sweetness that is unique to "Benifuki."
