Tree HouseBeersKomorebi: Yamadori
Komorebi: Yamadori is a rumination on the traditional art of bonsai. This Dry-hopped Japanese Lager pours a brilliant pale yellow color into the glass with notes of bready malts, straw, and white rice. A thoughtful addition of Lemondrop hops then lends aromas of floral green tea, citrus peel, and lemon candies.
A variant of Komorebi.
Leads with bread and citrus; also floral, herbal and grassy.
On the Classic wheel, from Tree House’s own descriptions of this beer.
🏮🪴🏮 Komorebi: Yamadori is our dry-hopped Japanese Lager. Floating above a crisp profile of bready malt, straw, and white rice, Lemondrop hops lend aromas of floral green tea, citrus peel, and lemon candy. Yamadori is the Japanese term for bonsai trees collected from the wild. Encountering a bonsai in person is a magnetic experience; the strangeness of scale makes the familiar feel entirely new. It reminds us that a simple shift in perspective can reveal beauty we had overlooked. We think of Japanese Lagers in much the same way. Their restrained, clean character invites a fresh look at familiar ingredients, where a delicate charge of hops can quietly command your attention.
Japanese-style Rice Lagers have been having a moment in the sun as of late, and it's not simply due to craft brewers' insatiable curiosity. We use flaked rice, a highly fermentable grain that exhibits a wonderfully clean profile with our preferred lager yeast. This relatively blank canvas is the perfect place to explore the nuance of a single-varietal dry hop addition. For Komorebi 'Yamadori', we use Lemondrop hops, which add aromas of floral green tea, citrus peel, and lemon candies. It's so crushable, refined, and pleasant. #productphotography #productphotodaily #photography #craftbeer #treehousebrewing #beergram #beerstagram #beersandcameras #beerlover #beerbeerbeer #beerme #beergeek #beertography #beernerd #fujifilm #gfx100II @fujifilmx_us @profoto
