A beer brewed with 100-year-old famous water that can
only be found here
TAKASHIMA BREWERY is a small brewery that uses the bounty of the
Takashima earth, the mountains, Lake Biwa, and the abundant spring
water of Harie.
We brew beer with a soft, rich flavor using the pure water
of this spring water village.
Harie Shouzu no Sato is a village where pure spring water, known
as "Shozu,” flows abundantly and where the people live in
harmony with water. In this area, where clear spring water
flows and views of lush woodlands and Lake Biwa spread out, you
can enjoy nature in all four seasons.
Unique water culture「Kabata」
This area has a unique water culture called "Kabata” where
spring water is utilized in daily life. The wisdom of

using the water for daily life, but also keeping fish and
purifying the water while circulating it.
