Prefecture/Representative Director: Nobuhisa Iwamoto) will release a dessert beer “Winter Fruit Tart Ale” using “Ashigara Fig” for a limited time in winter from Thursday, November 28, 2024.
https://www.sanktgallenbrewery.com/winter-fruit-tart-ale/ This fragrant amber beer is made with caramel malt and has a
gingerbread-like flavor with the addition of ginger and cinnamon. It has the rich sweetness of ripe fig jam and the refreshing acidity of apples. It has a complex taste that combines sweetness and spiciness, and from those who have tried it, we have received comments such as “It tastes like drinking Stollen,” “It’s a cake beer,” and “It tastes like ginger cookies turned into liquid.” Masu. Utilizing scarred “Ashigara Fig” The Ashigara area of Kanagawa Prefecture is one of the production areas for Shonan Gold, an orange fruit beer produced by St. Gallen only in spring and summer. Through that connection, I came across “Ashigara Fig” and developed this beer.

However, unlike melons, figs do not become sweeter (ripen) after they are harvested. Since Kanagawa Prefecture is close to Tokyo, which is a major consumption area, there is a low risk of fruit spoiling during distribution, and fruit picked in the morning that is fully ripe on the tree can be shipped on the same day. The flesh of fully ripened figs is sticky, soft, and has a gentle sweetness that sets it apart from those that have been picked young. This beer is made from fruit that has been damaged before being shipped.

The refreshing sourness of the apple goes well with the sweetness of the figs, adding depth to the flavor.

What is St. Gallen
https://prcdn.freetls.fastly.net/release_image/25081/207/25081-207-c0d04ddb9ed40ab6e09d86e7813a9e1f-610×666.png The beer that St. Gallen produces is a consistent ale, which is the opposite of the major and mainstream “lager” in terms of production method and taste. We are proud of receiving numerous awards at domestic and international contests. In addition to the classic beer, we also produce and sell a number of unique beers, including one-sho bottle beer, Valentine’s limited chocolate beer, and barley wine that will be released at the same time as Beaujolais Nouveau, and spread the appeal of craft beer widely. As part of this, we also focus on fruit beers, and in addition to figs, we also produce fruit beers that use apples, oranges, peaches, pears, and more. In order to bring out the fruit’s natural aroma and taste without relying on fragrances, we use plenty of fruit. Therefore, the use of fruit with defects such as blemishes, which can be purchased cheaper than usual, can help reduce the cost of raw materials. The use of fruit for a reason is a mutually beneficial relationship where farmers can sell fruit that would otherwise be unmarketable, and our company can receive fruit at a lower price. Some of our fruit beers were born out of an SOS call from farmers who had trouble finding fruit for some reason. The use of fruit with a certain purpose also leads to the reduction of food loss, contributing to the achievement of the SDGs. St. Gallen is a place name in Switzerland. The Abbey of St. Gallen there was the first place in the world to obtain a brewing license. In order to carry on its origins, the brand name is “Sankt Gallen”.
