This microbrewery pioneered the craft beer scene in the Kyoto Tea Country region. Mr. Bando founded it in 2022, after working in the sake industry. He views craft beer as a fun way to bring people together, revitalize the community, and share the gifts of nature and agriculture with others.
Kotokoto Beer sells beers directly from the brewery. Additionally, it sometimes opens its weekend pub, which is mainly frequented by the locals, including many families with children.
In addition to their standard lineup that includes the weizen, the stout, the pilsner, and the IPA (India pale ale), they collaborated with local stores and farmers to develop a wide variety of beers. These unique beers include a tomato pilsner, a grape IPA, a coffee beer, and a beer made with strawberries that nearby farmers are struggling to sell.
Visit the brewery. Discovering a place through its craft beer is a wonderful experience.
