Bearded Iris Brewing (TN) and Ryujin Brewery (Japan), helped make this sake-ale hybrid, fusing old world sake brewing traditions with modern craft brewing methods. Ayame was brewed with rice and barley in the mash, a light dose of Japanese Sorachi Ace hops in the kettle, koji (malted rice) in the fermenter, and a blend of ale and sake yeasts, making a unique dry sake-ale.

On tap at the 2015 Decatur Beer Fest.
Very lightly hazed golden body with a small, markedly weak head.
Too much like sake mixed with a cheap blonde ale, with the sake dominating.
Light body with overly light carbonation.
O: never had a sake-ale blend? ... this illustrates why not. Still, worth trying if you like both ale and sake.
