Japan's whiskey is some of the world's best—but what about Japanese craft beer?
In 2014, Japan surprised the world when connoisseur Jim Murray made his pick for “World Whiskey of the Year.” Rather than something Scottish, or Irish, Murray gave a nod to the Japanese Yamazaki Single Malt Sherry Cask 2013, giving it a 97.5 out of 100.
Since then, Japan has taken the whiskey world by storm, with critics heaping praise on houses like Nikka, Suntory, Kirin and Chichibu, the darling of Japan’s independent whisky scene. But for all their talent with whisky, the Japanese have yet to master another Western beverage: craft beer.Bar Gyu+
