In February 2021, a brewery was founded in Odaka, a town in Fukushima Prefecture that had once seen its population drop to zero due to evacuation following the nuclear disaster. Since July 2023, the team has also been brewing in the neighboring town of Namie. Driven by the spirit of “freedom in brewing,” this brewery reimagines Japan’s traditional doburoku (cloudy sake) culture through a modern lens, unbound by category or convention. To date, they have created more than 17 unique brews—including sake made with hanamoto, a traditional fermentation method, as well as experimental varieties featuring hops for a citrusy lift or inspired by the milky sweetness of Indian masala chai. With a bold and open-minded approach, the brewery continues to push the boundaries of sake-making. Their mission is to revive a culture of autonomous local craftsmanship and open-minded, creative brewing.
