Had an impromptu, unscheduled and unexpected video chat with Ken and Masako from Mukai Craft Brewing (whom I wrote a letter of introduction too back in December). Kai, the fellow future brewer in Hidaka-mura, was also there. It was a little hectic and far from a real chat and it seems my Scottish accent presented a challenge (it becomes less Scottish outside of Scotland..) but it was nice to put voices to faces.

If only I had time to look a little less “mid-lockdown” before the intro, but hey ho! Glad to have finally me them, would like a proper chat when time allows (preferably when I’m not working!)
