About Yamaguchi Beer / Yamaguchi Narutaki Kogen Brewery

Our microbrewery was founded by the Nakagawa Family in a beautiful, park-like location adjacent to the Narutaki Falls, the waterfall pictured on the Yamaguchi Beer label. “Narutaki” means the “sound of birds”. The family’s matriarch first identified the pristine location. She was joined by her two sons and other family members who each have a role in the brewery’s day-to-day operations. The natural sedimentary rock of this location provides a geological filtration system for the pure, clear water that comes from deep within the earth. That water is our first ingredient, and contributes to the unique character of the beer. It is the marriage of premium ingredients and the Brewmaster’s craft that balances and contrasts the flavors of each variety. In addition to the spring water, many of the beers’ signature ingredients are sourced locally. Most of the malt is derived from barley grown in Japan. Yamaguchi blends Ibuki hops with traditional European varieties to achieve a unique flavor profile. Nothing is left to chance. Many yeasts were tested to arrive at these very special varieties used in the fermentation of Yamaguchi Beer.
