Product Concept Himitsu Beer LLC, based in Ise City, and Imuraya Co., Ltd., based in Tsu City, are both located in Mie Prefecture. This collaboration was realized from the desire of these local companies to contribute to regional revitalization by working together to develop a high-profile product.
Features and Information (1) Flavor and color inspired by Imuraya's long-seller 'Melon Ball' Since its release in 1972, 'Melon Ball' has been cherished for its fruit-shaped container and refreshing sherbet. This craft beer allows you to enjoy that nostalgic flavor in a new form as an adult. The beer reproduces not only the flavor but also the color, making it visually enjoyable when poured into a glass.
(2) Beer made with ingredients that pair well with 'Melon Ball' To match the refreshing sweetness of 'Melon Ball,' the ingredients were selected to provide a low bitterness, combining melon notes with tropical hop aromas. The mouthfeel is designed to be a drinkable 'Melon Ball,' highlighting the flavor while still allowing the malt nuances to be perceived, ensuring a refreshing beer experience.
