Limited tasting available on 23 November 2023 (Thursday, public holiday).

World tea specialist Lupicia (Head office: Niseko-cho, Abuta-gun, Hokkaido; President: Hiroki Mizuguchi) has announced that from 23 November 2023 it will start selling a limited quantity of Yotei Sanroku beer produced at its factory in Niseko-cho, Hokkaido.
The limited-time product MICANNE Yotei Beer will be sold at selected Lupicia shops and be made available via mail order, as well as at selected supermarkets, convenience stores and liquor outlets in Hokkaido.

Youtei Beer MICANNE is made from the purée of the French mandarin variety Clementine and the juice of the domestic Onshu mandarin, giving it an aroma and taste as if the sweet mandarin were pressed whole. It is characterised by its bright water colour and even the bubbles are tangerine-coloured. It is rich and comfortable to drink, yet has a very refreshing aftertaste.

It has been designed to have a taste that is less bitter than that often found in beer, so even those who don’t usually drink beer can easily enjoy it as if it were a “kotatsu de mikan” (mandarin orange under a kotatsu).
