Discover Japanese precision behind every drop. A premium, 100% malted barley beer brewed with the world’s only First-Press method, offering exquisitely smooth and rich flavor perfect for any occasion.
Ichiban means “first” and “best” in Japanese. That’s exactly what you’ll experience from your first to last sip of Kirin Ichiban.
Kirin Ichiban was crafted to exacting details to provide a smooth, rich flavor by using 100% malted barley and the highest quality Saaz hops.
Unlike other beers, we only press the wort once to extract the most flavorful ingredients, creating a beer in its purest state. We call this Ichiban Shibori or First Press.
