Prior to opening Dovetail, Bellomy worked in the American craft beer industry, as a chef, and even as a sword-making apprentice in the Saitama Prefecture of Japan. Tune in to hear all about his life as a sake brewer. Our philosophy is, we want people to drink it because its delicious, and not because its sake...we look to traditional Japanese brewing, but were not limited by that.
