Today a place I briefly popped in to on the day they launched their first beers. I was intending to stay a bit longer but ended up getting slightly waylaid en route and in the end only had time for a couple of halves. Maybe this was a good thing for them as they seemed…
I had a great time visiting Viajero. This was for a couple of reasons. First, it’s a nice place with a fun atmosphere and good prices. Secondly it was the culmination of my self-enforced challenge to have a Japanese craft beer in every ‘shi’, ‘machi’ and ‘mura’ of Tokyo. I’m glad I saved it till…
As part of my ongoing quest to find new and interesting places to drink that are a bit off the beaten track, I discovered the Bierernst brewery. I’d never heard of it before so was quite intrigued and WAS even more so when I checked the kind of beers that they were making. Finding myself…
I know I am always talking about how slow I am off the mark when it comes to visiting new places for this site. In this case I have really exceeded myself. I never made it to this place when it was the Nakameguro Beer Boy, and have now only just made it to this…
I opened up this website today thinking I would add a new place to the Shiga digest post, only to find that there was no Shiga digest post. Perhaps this makes sense as the only other beer place I’d been in Shiga closed down after my visit. (After my visit, but not due to my…
After being shocked to find there was no Shiga digest post, I was even more surprised to discover that there was no Osaka digest post. Well at least a bit surprised, as I have always approached adding Osaka places with some reluctance as there are so many of them that I couldn’t do the city…
I have to say, it’s been a long time for me between Craft Beer Server Land visits. A very long time. My main memory from the Kagurazaka branch is that I quite enjoyed going there in those days when there weren’t many bars around. I was pleasantly surprised to hear that they’d opened a branch…
Yup! is somewhere that I have walked past many times, always intending to pop in at some stage but never actually doing so. That is until now. Finally I’ve managed to have a beer there. Here’s what you need to know (sorry, this is all quite brief). I have to say, I’m pleased I finally…
Here’s the usual digest post blurb. If you want to see all of the digest posts and find out a little bit about places that we have not made it to yet, please check the digest category on the right hand side or alternatively you can just click here. As with previous digest posts, an…
Bit of a weird one this. I wasn’t sure whether to give it a full write up or not, but I’ve decided I might as well, given that I have now visited. In the long tradition of new breweries in Tokyo, they have opened but are not brewing yet. This wasn’t really that clear until…
