MED-BODIED, FLORAL MELON, WILD YEAST, LACTIC TANG, RICE SEDIMENT

Hana Makgeolli is the first US brewery dedicated to jeontongju, traditionally brewed Korean rice wine, founded by Alice Jun in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Takju is the flagship release, undiluted and wild-fermented on nuruk rather than a single cultivated strain, at 16% ABV — roughly double a typical commercial makgeolli, and built to correct the assumption that makgeolli is light and sweet.

Coarsely filtered, not polish-filtered, so the sediment stays in the glass: shake gently before pouring.
