Iron Monk Brewing released a Japanese rice lager Saturday to commemorate the 40th anniversary of Stillwater's sister city relationship with Kameoka, Japan, debuting the brew at the Stillwater Harvest Festival on Block 34.
The beer, named Shimai Toshi — Japanese for "Sister Cities" — was presented to Kameoka Mayor Takahiro Katsuragawa in early October when Mayor Will Joyce and City Manager Brady Moore visited Japan for the anniversary celebration. The visit coincided with Kameoka's 70th anniversary as an incorporated city.
