Where We Call Home

United by their love and passion for craft beer and their adoptive Kyoto Prefecture, Chris Hainge from the US, Canadian Paul Speed and Wales-born Ben Falck run their brewery in Japan's old capital. Business was doing well until sales dropped due to the pandemic. We follow the intrepid trio's efforts to overcome the hardships by strengthening their ties to the Kyoto community. We also visit Polish Anika Godek at the Fuchu City Hall in Tokyo where she promotes the town's appeal to visitors from abroad.
