"Galaxy Express 999: Maetel Weizen" is the first product in a new Galaxy Express 999 series of premium craft beers, which will be developed as a new brand of Sawauchi Brewery in Iwate Prefecture, which Helios acquired in 2020. The beer will also be sold in 300ml bottles from December 2021.
This is an elegant and rich-tasting weizen inspired by Maetel. A completely new illustration of a Maetel in her iconic outfit, smiling while holding a glass of Weizen was commissioned and produced by Toei Animation. Maetel Weizen is made with more than 50% wheat malt and natural water from the Ōu Mountains, and it has a mild and elegant taste.
Drink and compare set
Helios also sells a "Blue Sky and Sea Beer," a weizen made at their headquarters, and brewed with the famous waters from the foothills of Mt. Masuda in Nago City, Okinawa. You can purchase as set combining Blue Sky and Sea Beer and Maetel Weizen.
