I went to a beer festival last year during GW in Fukuoka. I can’t even find the breweries that I tried in the database, and I can’t find much/any info online in Japanese. Long shot, but does any one know about

Kumamoto beer - I assume it is Kumamoto Craft Beer. I tried the Pilsner and the only info I could find online was http://beer.daisuki8.com/823.html

Chongama Pale Ale - I may have written down the brewery name incorrectly. Anything similar that rings a bell to anyone?

Thanks
TIm

The Pale Ale is Chonmage, from Yamaguchi.
The Kumamoto brewery looks right. They haven’t been added yet, I think.

The issue with Kumamoto is the brewery’s website doesn’t work and I can’t find the brewery’s website. A bit of an odd one as they seem to not want to be found.

I will call tomorrow, but I am guessing that Kumamoto Craft Beer, which has been open for 18 years, but doesn’t have a website yet (these things DO take time, I understand), is made at http://www.ratebeer.com/brewers/kurokawa-craft-beer/8577/

Kyushu really is the backwaters for craft beer in Japan.

I will updated on this page and make necessary adjustments.
