Yo-Ho Brewing opens new craft beer brewery in Izumisano, Osaka
Craft beer maker Yo-Ho Brewing (Karuizawa, Nagano) opened a new brewery in Izumisano, Osaka on July 23, with the full JPY 3.8 billion construction cost funded by furusato nozei (hometown tax) donations raised by the city. The facility, located in Rinku Town, is a unique case of a capex project financed entirely through crowdfunding-style local tax donations rather than corporate investment.
