Brewin’ Bar Monde is a place that has been open for quite a while but has gone under the radar of most beer lovers it seems. However, it has recently caught the attention of a few people, including myself, because it has started brewing. Brewpubs are still a bit of a rarity in Tokyo, and…
Today a quick post on somewhere that had previously appeared on my digest post but now has a full entry on here. Good Sleep Baker is a bar with bakery upstairs in an area that I didn’t really have anything on my Tokyo Beer Drinker map. It’s within about a 20 minute walk of Umegaoka’s…
Today, the other place that I went to in Fuchu. You can check out the post on Beer House Ken here and I would recommend that if you’re in the area, you do both of these places in a mini crawl. Much like Beer House Ken, Asaya doesn’t have the largest selection compared to some…
Today, the first of a couple of places I visited in Fuchu. Beer House Ken has been on my radar for a while but I have never had the chance to visit until now. It’s another one of those beer shops where you can drink on site, which I always find quite fun. Unfortunately, as…
Post by Iain This one man operation has six counter seats facing the street for people watching, plus ten table seats. There is a ¥200 cover charge and beer-wise, the selection is given as Wheat, IPA, Barley Wine, Extra, Edelpils, but in practice Wheat often translates as a pilsner, and Barley wine might be a…
[To see the other Sendai posts on this blog, click here] THIS PLACE IS NOW UNFORTUNATELY CLOSED Today, another place that we managed to visit on this year’s Sendai trip. It has been open less than a year and is an interesting addition to the city’s beer scene, being I think the first brewery taproom…
[To see all the Sendai posts on this blog, click here] A new football season means that I am revisiting cities and consequently getting to some new places that I either missed last time, or passed over. I was torn about adding this place, as it was by no means mind blowing, but in the…
Almost immediately after starting my digest post about places that I wasn’t getting time to go to, and adding Mitsuya to that post, I found myself in Asagaya, so was able to revisit the place. I went there a few times a few years ago, but for one reason or another I didn’t add it…
Just thought I should post something explaining my reasons for adding a donation button today. As you have probably heard me complaining previously, due to the crazy amount of new places opening, it is very hard to find the time and the money to cover everywhere that should be covered. I have always resisted adding…
THIS PLACE HAS CLOSED DOWN Post by Mark (his first one, thanks Mark!) Beerpub Pacific NW is just south of Roppongidori, almost midway between Shibuya and Roppongi. I walked there in ten minutes from Omotesando station, so it perhaps should be considered one of the bars of Omotesando. The jazz clubs Blue Note and Body…
