    Tastes crisp, refreshing, and pairs well with sushi, sashimi, and chicken katsu. There is a reason it is the number one beer in Japan.

    Classic Japanese rice lager. Prefect with sushi or on a hot day.

FAQs

Rice Lagers are beers brewed with rice in addition to barley in the mix of grains. This may sound exotic, but many mass-market American-style Lagers use a similar technique - the rice helps keep the beers from getting too heavy. 
The rice keeps the beer lighter in color and body, and you can expect just a whisper of hop bitterness. It's low but definitely there, as a way to balance out the sugars and the sweetness of the grains.
Expect the ABV (alcohol by volume) for a typical rice lager to be less than 5%.
Not necessarily - even beers made primarily with rice usually feature grains like barley. Definitely check the label before you try it and don't assume any beer is gluten free if you're gluten sensitive.
