This is something of a rarity. I’ve been quite quick off the mark when it comes to visiting and writing about this place. Well, if you count within six months of opening as quite quick off the mark. But writing this has made me aware of the fact that Vertere are opening a new taproom…
This place recently appeared on my radar when a friend of mine checked in to one of their beers on Untappd. The name was kind of intriguing but until now I hadn’t managed to visit. It’s been open a little while, (almost a year), but I suppose in the usual glacial Tokyo Beer Drinker scheme…
Buso Brewery is a fairly recently opened brewpub situated right next to the Odakyu line station in Machida. The brewery also seems to go under the name of Kawasemi Brew. Perhaps Kawasemi will be opening other brew pubs in the future. Further muddying the water is the fact that in their Instagram bio it says…
Today, a reasonably new place in Mitaka not far from Beer Shop Llama, but offering a different kind of experience. The interestingly named Neko To Azarashi, (Cat and Seal, if you want to translate it), offers Japanese craft beer and food in a bright and airy atmosphere. Here’s what you need to know: This was…
A recent football game in Okayama gave me the opportunity to tick off a prefecture that I’d never been to before. I realise that Ehime isn’t that close to Okayama, but there’s a direct train, so it seemed like a good idea. And it was! I only visited a few beer places so this is…
On a recent trip to Hachioji I realised that I was quite close to somewhere that has been on my ‘to go to’ list for a long time. I was always curious about the name of this place and recently when I heard some good things about it, I decided that I should finally give…
Tsumugi, or if you want to translate its full name into English, Craft beer shop Tsumugi on the second floor, is a Japanese craft beer bar not far from Minami Kashiwa station. It’s not the easiest to find but if you follow the map and look at the picture above and go up the stairs…
Today a brief post about a new place out in West Tokyo in Inagi, which I discovered as part of my ongoing and slightly pointless challenge to have a craft beer in every part of Tokyo. Last year there was nothing in Inagi when it came to craft beer other than Yomiuri Land’s Tap Marche…
I was quite surprised to see I had nothing on here for Aomori. I guess the last time I visited Aomori city I wasn’t in the digest post business. I think it was also around COVID times and that was one reason we couldn’t visit the only bar open during the daytime. A few years…
Post by Mothy I was happy to discover a new beer bar in Kawagoe that opened in August. I’ve been working in the city for about 10 years now, and the pickings have been slim in terms of getting a craft beer, so as soon as I heard about the place I rushed over after…
