FAQs

Where can I get a copy of Japan Beer Times?

Most bars and restaurants in Japan that serve craft beer distribute our magazine. We’re very sorry, but we can’t provide a complete list or give individual suggestions based on where you are. Just visit your local craft beer watering hole! Alternatively, we sell back issues, individual copies and subscriptions through our website (here).

We’re visiting; can you recommend some bars, etc?

Unfortunately, we’re just too overwhelmed to provide individual recommendations. We recommend you consider the suggestions in Professor Mark Meli’s book (available here) or in our Craft Beer Japan app.

Can you provide some research on the craft beer industry?

We do conduct a lot of research on the industry in Japan but do not provide this information publicly; we’re very sorry.

We represent a brewery; can you recommend some viable importers?

Yes, we can; please provide us some background information.

I want to import craft beer to Japan; can you help?

Aside from providing marketing/advertising opportunities, we don’t offer any logistical help or advice.
