Hey fellow brewers,

Im new to AG brewing and to this forum, having just completed my fourth brew. Im trying a Kirin recipe this week but was interested in any good rice beer recipes any one has to share would like to find a Sapporo lager recipe!

:)

Will post some recipes once i have tasted can confirm they are a success!
 
No rice in Kirin lager. According to the label it's malt and maltodextrin. For rice beer there is sake.

Pity they're not into Nazi memorabilia..

..sorry..

As far as rice beer goes, I think Hitachino would make an interesting project. 7% kind of makes it the Belgian strong ale of Jap beers.

Rather than paying five bucks a kilo for flaked rice, just boil up a kilo of the cheapest supermarket long grain rice until it's a sloppy porridge, allow to cool to mash temperature and simply stir into your base mash.

I'm sure that Asian breweries generally use rice in their mass produced lagers, but I'm not sure about the Japanese. Their brewing industry was very much founded by the Germans and IMHO their beers are still of higher quality than the rest of the region (San Mig, Tiger, Bintang etc) and I wouldn't be surprised if rice wasn't used in their premium brands that we are used to. Never having been to Japan I understand that rice there is a fairly expensive (to subsidise the local industry) food and not a cheap filler as we tend to regard it.

Rice makes a cracker Corona knockoff.

4 kg BB or JW pale
1 kg dry weight rice, cooked

18g Galena 60 mins

US-05 fermented at 16
