Samuel Adams continues to innovate when it comes to the big bottle series. Case in point: Dragon Orochi. Orochi is brewed with Japanese ingredients, including juice from the Yuzu fruit.

This curious and cunning brew, named for the eight-headed dragon of Japanese lore, use two unusual ingredients from the same origin for its distinctive and bold flavor. Yuzu juice creates a bright citrusy character with notes of grapefruit & mandarin orange while Japanese Sugi wood balances the sweetness with a fresh earthiness. The result is a bright & ethereal yet with lots of earthy power.
