Today we're headed for one of the best brewpub/taprooms in Japan: the Minoh Beer Warehouse. It's located just north of Osaka in the city of Minoh, a peaceful green oasis known for its waterfall, temple, aggressive monkeys, and....fantastic beer. Also, since we'll have some time on the train ride from Mie prefecture, I'll give a little historical background on the Japanese craft beer scene, as well as the story of how this highly-respected, family-fun brewery became what it is today.

Once at the taproom, I'll be sampling a few of their award-winning beers, having a bite to eat, and pondering the nature of existence. Spoiler alert: Monkeys don't actually steal my beer in this video. Although I suppose you could say that, "Monkey Beers Stole my Sobriety".

As for the music used in this video, it's (as usual) a mix of tracks from the YouTube Creators' Library and original music from the Mysterious Doctor Ebot. (Three of each I think. I'm happy to provide details about specific tracks if you ask!)

Kampai!
