	Brews News Issue #60 - August 2005
		The right answer lies in the small coastal town of Ise, home of the Grand Shrine of the Sun Goddess Amaterasu, ancestress of the imperial clan, and (surprise!) a beer whose heritage can be traced back to 1575 (third year of the Tensho era, for those who keep track of such things).
		Throughout the centuries when Shinto exerted a spiritual tug akin to Islam today, and Ise was its Mecca, travelers from Kanto and Kansai made their way overland or by sea to worship the goddess at the apex of its polytheistic hierarchy.
		All of this, of course, is minutes away from the shrines that form Japan's spiritual heartland, and within an hour are the resort town of Toba, the seafood and pearl islands of Kashikojima, and theme parks devoted to Spain and to medieval Japan.
