Today, Miyata Beer, a fairly new brewpub based in Oshiage. It’s good to see that we are getting new breweries and brewpubs rather than just new pubs as there were so many new places opening that I was worrying that we were going to run out of beer.Miyata Beer seems to be very much a…

Nomono
Another station beer shop. Once again, inside the barriers, this time at Akihabara. I will keep this reasonably brief as there’s not a great deal to say! Thanks to Phil for the tip. Check out his blog Kansai Beer Lovers. Seems like there is also one of these at Ueno, but I haven’t been there…
Biere Cave Jan Bar (Now closed)
THIS BAR HAS NOW CLOSED (Finally have managed to put a photo on this post, but unfortunately, it’s a photo of the place whilst closed. Probably good enough to get the idea though!) Back to Yokohama for this brief post, once again vaguely close to Kannai and with that a few bars I have mentioned…
The Cat & Cask Tavern
Firstly, apologies again for the terrible photo. Once again, I did it in a bit of a hurry on the way out. Today, another English themed pub, although once again, like Campion, the theme is only part of the whole, rather than being the reason for the place’s existence. It’s a bit out of the…
Ushi Tora 1 (now moved)
[This place has now moved. Please click here for the listing of the new location. The standing bar, Ushi Tora 2 is still in the original location though.] It’s taken me almost two years to get back here, which is pretty bad considering that it is fairly close to where I live. Finally, I am…
Kaeru Cafe
Today, a place that once again has something fairly unique to offer. I have no problem at all with there being lots of new and fairly similar bars around now. The more choice the better. But Kaeru Cafe is a bit different and because of this, I feel it’s worthy of a mention on here….
Nakano Beer Kobo
A relatively short post today, as there is not much to be said about this place that has not been mentioned in previous posts. Nakano Beer Kobo is the latest in what is now becoming a big chain of Chuo line brewpubs. First we had Koenji, then heading West, Asagaya, then Ogikubo (all mentioned so…
Hiranoya
(This post was originally three beer shops in one day so to fully appreciate what’s going on, check the other two posts on Deguchiya and Night Owl) Hiranoya has undergone an upgrade! There are still plenty of bottles and cans to enjoy but there are now three taps. Also they have moved into the larger…
Deguchiya
(This post was originally three beer shops in one day so to fully appreciate what’s going on, check the other two posts on Night Owl and Hiranoya) Onwards to Nakameguro and a little way north of the station along Yamatedori. Deguchiya is much bigger premises than Night Owl and has a huge stock of all…
Night Owl
(This post was originally three beer shops in one day so to fully appreciate what’s going on, check the other two posts on Deguchiya and Hiranoya) I was under the impression that this was a bar and beer shop, but after talking to the owner, it seems that the idea is more that you try…
