Finally I’ve made it to Our Days. I feel a bit bad as I am kind of close to it every week when I go to Gremlin, but until now have never made it here. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the experience so it definitely won’t be the last time I visit. It’s located…

Ome Bakushu
As you might have guessed, this was another place I visited on my ongoing quest to have a craft beer in every area of Tokyo. I think prior to going here, the only time I had previously set foot in Ome was when I changed train on the way to Okutama. I probably wouldn’t have…
Vertere Bottle Shop
This is an even shorter post than the usual short posts. Basically, Vertere now have a bottle shop (or should it really be called a can shop?), right opposite the train station. If you are going to the taproom it’s almost impossible to miss, so perhaps this post is kind of pointless. But I thought…
Kichi Brewing
I’d heard a lot about Kichi before I managed to visit. Lots of people had said it was a nice place with good beer so I made a note to try to visit as soon as possible. As any long term readers will know, as soon as possible when it comes to Tokyo Beer Drinker…
Neko No Shuukaijyo
Today, a place that has been on my radar for a little while but which I haven’t had the chance to visit till now. Neko No Shuukaijyo, which I guess is translated as the cats’ meeting place is very close to Umegaoka station on the Odakyu line. I think the last time I was in…
Brewery Links
(This is a new version of an old post that was becoming impossible to update for some reason. Hopefully this one should work) I thought it made more sense to have all the brewery links on one post rather than clogging up the side bar. So here you are, links to all the breweries mentioned…
Loose ends/various places Part 11
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 are yet to make it to, please check the digest category on the right hand side or alternatively you can just click here. As with previous digest posts, an…
Sunny Hop
Sunny Hop is a Craft Beer and hotdogs place located in between Higashi Kitazawa and Shimo Kitazawa stations, a little closer to the former but equally not far from the latter. I had not heard of the place at all but stumbled upon it when I walked past. Here’s what you need to know. I…
Kimama Craft Beer Stand
Today a recently opened place in Machida. I don’t think I’ve ever been drinking in Machida in the 12 years I’ve lived in Japan. In the past there didn’t seem to be any particularly exciting bars in that area, but when I recently decided to head down there I thought I’d just have a check…
Fukui round up
In my twelve years in Japan I have now been to 45 of the 47 prefectures. The only remaining ones are Ehime and Okinawa. Fukui was the 45th one I visited and I was only there for a couple of hours. But a couple of hours was long enough for a beer stop and in…
