Shiokawa is located in Niigata but bucks the trend of the “Tanrei Karakuchi” (light &dry) style the region is so famous for. Get it? Bucks. They call me pun dog. This tiny brewery is almost completely operated by one person; Toji brewer/president Shiokawa. Although he has a seasonal helper but otherwise works on his own.
