To make Super Dry beer, we use a
rare yeast, the Asahi yeast strain No. 318, which not only yields
outstanding fermentation,
but produces a complex aroma that results in an elegant and
sophisticated flavor and ensures Super Dry’s pure, crisp,
dry taste.
Yeast are sensitive micro-organisms, and their conditions constantly
change during fermentation. Creating an optimal environment
for yeast to “do their best job” for beer-making
depends on the beer brewer’s technology. We are ceaselessly
developing new technologies to pursue a more sophisticated,
clear, KARAKUCHI taste.

The malted barley we use for Super
Dry is selected strictly in compliance with more than a hundred
criteria we have set for this ingredient, including grain species,
its origins, and the methods of germination. We have an established
network of grain suppliers around the world who collaborate
with us to more than satisfy our standards.
While only a small amount of expensive fine hops is generally
used for adding aroma to beer, we use a lavish amount of
them to realize our goal of a clear, yet elegant bitterness
in Super Dry. This choice also represents our commitment
to the pursuit of a more sophisticated, clear, KARAKUCHI
taste.

 In order to obtain the sophisticated, clear taste of
Super Dry, we pay strict attention to every step in the manufacturing
process in order to eliminate the unwanted tastes of byproducts. We
have perfected the know-how to create the kind of wort (a sweetened
liquid made from water and malt) that is best suited for optimal fermentation
efficiency. In addition, we employ a number of new technologies, including
special conveyor systems that don’t harm malt, as well as milling
machines that do not mash the grain excessively, thereby keeping unwanted
flavors and tastes out of the manufacturing processes.
Another technology we have been perfecting involves the prevention of flavor
deterioration as far as possible after production. This "dream technology" helps
retain the flavor and good taste of our freshly made beer. We have established
this technology without using preservatives, but only byleveraging the natural "powers" inherent
to the ingredients. We have already successfully applied this technology to the
production of Super Dry, which has proven to greatly contribute to the retention
of its crisp, fresh taste.
Our technologies and breweries are advancing day by day through our continuous
work of making a good tasting Super Dry. The goal has remained constant since
the debut of Super Dry: bring sophisticated, clear, KARAKUCHI taste to customers
around the world. |
