Background
DD4D Brewing is a microbrewery that opened in Matsuyama City, Ehime Prefecture in 2019. Located in the center of Matsuyama City, just a few minutes’ walk from Matsuyama City Station.
DD4D Brewing has a unique situation as a brewery attached to a clothing store. The owner, who was previously the head brewer at YYG Brewery and Beer Kitchen in Yoyogi, Tokyo, returned to Matsuyama, where his parents run an apparel business, and opened this store that combines craft beer and fashion.
Inside the store, you can enjoy home-brewed beer and snacks while watching the brewing equipment at the back of the clothing sales floor. In 2021, DD4D Brewing opened the DD4D Factory & Curisosities store
