What kind of brewery is Fill Brewing?
Hop BroFill Brewing in Koza, Okinawa City is a brewery started by a former B-boy all on his own.
MugiWhat, a B-boy!? A breakdancer is making beer!?
Hop BroYeah. He quit his office job and did it all by himself, with no mentor, no investors, and no co-founder. A brewery built on hip-hop culture is pretty rare in Japan.
MugiWhat! So the beer names are like that too?
Hop BroExactly. They have a pale ale called "BBOY Ism" and a session IPA called "FREESTYLE." Even the names are exciting.
MugiBBOY Ism! That name has so much impact! How does it taste?
Hop BroThe labels and names are unique, but the beer itself is seriously legit. "Knock on Pine," a West Coast IPA, is 6.5% ABV, with a crisp bitterness and notes of pine and herbs. "Neva Enuff" is a Hazy Double IPA at 8.2%, bursting with tropical and citrus flavors.
MugiWow, they really are making bold beers!
Hop BroThey use different malts from Germany, the UK, and the U.S., and hops from the U.S. and New Zealand. The brewing water is Okinawa water. American styles are the core, but what's interesting is how they connect beer with Koza's street culture, whether by making an original beer for a local dance battle event or collaborating with mural artists.
MugiAn original beer for a dance battle!? It feels like they're bringing the whole Koza neighborhood into it. I want to go drink there!
Hop BroSipping beer brewed by someone who dances, while feeling Koza's deep local vibe. You really can't get an experience like that anywhere else.
