Tally's Take
Why this matters
Founded by brewers who apprenticed in Canada, resulting in a bold, North American-influenced lineup of IPAs and stouts.

The founders apprenticed in Canada, which is why a Hokkaido brewery makes North American styles rather than German ones like most of its neighbours.
