The World of Craft Beer and Art Brut

High-Mix, Low-Volume Production (HMLV)
Nestled in the historically rich area of Shin-yashiki Town, just a short distance from Tenmonkan and Kagoshima Chuo Station, Hifumiyo Brewing operates under the concept of high-mix low-volume production (HMLV). This allows them to experiment with unique flavors and ingredients while maintaining the highest standards of craftsmanship.
Brewing for a Social Future
Hifumiyo Brewing is more than just a brewery. They are working towards creating a future where individuals facing life’s challenges, including poverty and disabilities, can thrive. Craft beer brewing requires a personal touch, and people from diverse backgrounds and experiences can bring their individuality to the process. Hifumiyo Brewing is also committed to establishing a social farm in Kagoshima to promote cooperation and coexistence within the community.
Contributing to Kagoshima’s Agriculture
Kagoshima is a region blessed with a diverse agricultural landscape, stretching 600 km from north to south. Some agricultural products harvested here don’t meet standard market specifications, but Hifumiyo Brewing uses these non-standard products to create innovative beers. This process not only upcycles unused ingredients but also supports sustainable agriculture in the region. The brewery also works with disability employment support facilities to repurpose spent malt into high-quality feed and fertilizer.
