OUR STORY & PLEDGE

​In 2012, Okinawa Brewing Company was created with the desire to provide great american style craft beers to the Okinawan islands & western Japan. Created by three american home brewers, we know this area of the world is lacking in craft beer selection, and to help improve our situation we built a nano-brewery here in Okinawa.

​

  At Okinawa Brewing Company, we pledge to brew the highest quality craft beer made with the flavors of Okinawa by including local products into our recipes that reflect and enhance the relaxed "nankurunai" lifestyle of this subtropical island.

  We strive to raise the appreciation of hand crafted beer aged to perfection and created from all natural ingredients, through education and cultural exchange, making our original creations as enjoyable around the world as they are on a beautiful Okinawan beach or resting under the shade of a centuries old "gajimaru" tree.

  Furthermore, we will support our local community with innovative recipes, environment friendly recycle processes and activities synergistic to the quality or our product and the welfare of those around us.
