This post was originally part of one Iidabashi round up post before I decided to split all of these joint posts. Check out the other part here. Post by James This pub is located on a side street a little way up Waseda-dori (you pass Craft Beer Server Land on the way). The Royal Scotsman…
Post by Iain According to the blurb on the menu, “gachimaya” means the same as kuishimbo (big eater/gutsy pig) in Okinawan dialect and given the quality of the food in this restaurant it’s tempting to take that as a challenge and try to live up to the name. Although handily placed for Jimbocho Disk Union,…
Post by Mothy The other day I took a trip to Gotanda and made a stop at Craftsman. It’s a short walk from the station, so if you are in the area it’s a convenient place for a beer. Though they seem to be more on the side of a restaurant that serves beer rather…
Once again, thanks to all the people who are helping out with post on the blog. It really is shaming me into getting to some new places myself. So, consequently when I found myself with an early finish in Koenji this week it seemed like the perfect opportunity to check out the newly-opened Beer Engine….
Post by Iain Wash1n Tokyo has been in business (in this incarnation at least, it seems) for about a year on the south side of Asagaya station. It’s a smallish place with seven tables, two seating four and five seating two, and a counter with five seats. I visited around 19:00 on a Saturday and…
Post By James Hemel is a Belgian beer/wine bistro. There are two of them in Shibuya. One, In De Bourgondische Hemel, is on Dogenzaka and the other, Wine & Belgian Beer Hemel, is on Miyamasu-zaka. It was the latter which I checked out. The place was a reasonable size. There seemed to be about 18 counter seats and three tables…
(This was originally one post with another Yotsuya place. Check that here) Post by James I found this place by chance as I arrived about 20 minutes before Marumugi opened. – Mates is a small bar with seven counter seats and a table that could seat about the same number. – They had Lagunitas, Sierra…
(This was originally one post with another Yotsuya place. Check that here) Post by James This is a very friendly place that is easy to go to on your own. It is the sort of place where you are sure to get talking to whoever is at the counter. Marumugi has more to offer craft…
Post by Mothy I’ve been to Maltan in Kanda a number of times and I really like the place, though it doesn’t really excel in any one area. First off, the beer. They have only six taps of craft (they also serve Suntory Malts) but from when I’ve been there, it’s always an interesting selection….
Post by Jim Beer Hunting Urawa is a craft beer bar focusing on Japanese craft breweries. The entire bar is no smoking. It’s about a one minute walk from the east exit of Kita Urawa station in Saitama. It’s right above a CoCo Ichiban curry shop. There are 27 seats in total total, nine of them…
