Shiga Kogen Beer
Since 2004, Head Brewer Sato Eigo has been making Shiga Kogen Beer at Tamamura Honten, a company with a 200-year history in sake production. As a Shiga Kogen local, he takes pride and inspiration from his natural surroundings; the brewery produces its own hops, sake rice, barley, wheat, buckwheat (soba) and blueberries. In a 2013 interview with The Japan Beer Times, Sato proclaimed that “as this (Shiga Kogen) is a ski resort worthy of the world, I want to make a beer here of equal stature”.
