hopIQ found 10 beers with the same smoky and caramel character as Kasō. A smoked barleywine at 10.2%, brewed with Brasserie Dieu du Ciel and Messorem Bracitorium. The malt bill combines specialty English crystal malts with a small amount of beechwood smoked malt, so the smoke sits as a layer inside the malt rather than on top of it. The brewery lists dark dried fruit, caramel, toffee and biscuit against that smoke. The name means cremation in Japanese. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
