Japas Sawa Plum Sour
In this version of Sawā, Japas has added plum, a fruit whose flavor ranges from sweet to tart, matching perfectly the style chosen for this beer. Its delicate flowers symbolize persistence in Japanese popular culture as they bloom in the winter, when the branches are still covered with snow. The plum tree is also believed to ward off evil spirits and bring good luck to homes.

About the producer
Japas
Japas was founded by three women who met through beer: Maíra Kimura, Yumi Shimada and Fernanda Ueno. Their brand was born unpretentiously in the midst of bar conversations, meetings and beer festivals. This union occurred precisely because, within this universe, they identified their similarities: they were some of the few women and, coincidentally, also some of the few Japanese descendants in the industry. They then decided to come together to, in addition to research their origins, show that women can and should also participate in environments that are generally considered to be masculine, proving more and more that beer has no gender.
Each of their creations is the result of this dive into their ancestry and in this mixture so rich in aromas, flavors and culture, with recipes that celebrate the union between Brazil and Japan in a contemporary way, without clichés or pre-established ideas.
