Introducing “Tomodachi” Rice Lager 🍻 a collaborative beer from @notchbrewing and @the.koji.club_ using 70% milled yamada nishiki sake rice from @isbellfarms brewed in Brighton 🌾 Tomodachi means friend in Japanese 🥰✌️The beer is a collaboration between neighbors and friends at @charlesriverspeedway in Allston Brighton and represents our love of New England craft brewing and Japanese fermentation traditions, highlighting sake rice in a crisp, modern lager. The beer was brewed using Isbell Farm’s yamada nishiki rice polished to a 70% milling ratio with premium pilsner malt, sorachi ace hops and Notch’s house yeast. The label art on the bottles was done by our dear friend @kngee 🙇🏻‍♀️
