Please note that this is Kirin’s Craft Beer brewery, so if you are offended by macro beers, this is not the place for you. Post by James As soon as you see this place you are struck by its size and beauty. It seems much too big to be only a few minutes walk from…

Baird Takadanobaba Taproom
A new Baird taproom! That kind of came out of the blue. And it’s in Takadanobaba, an interesting area where some beery stuff seems to be starting to happen. As usual, for the full details, I’d recommend checking one of the other Baird taproom posts (Harajuku or Nakameguro. Bashamichi to be done soon, I hope)….
Delirium Ginza
I recently realised that I don’t have many of the Delirium locations on here so I guess I should probably remedy that soon. First on the list for me to visit was the most recently opened one and I think the one with the most taps. Like many of the other branches, it’s not…
Ninkasi
Today, a quick post about a fairly new place that has opened up in the west of Tokyo. Ninkasi is, I presume, given the similarities in logo and their online connections, the sister pub of Gambrinus in Kokubunji. But whilst Gambrinus is located is a windowless room on the sixth floor, Ninkasi is a glass…
Daimon/Hamamatsucho round up part 4: Soul Bird
(This was originally part of a big Daimon/Hamamatsucho area round up post until I decided to split it in order for the tags to work better. Here are part 1, part 2 and part 3) Finally, Soul Bird. Probably the most conventionally styled of all of these places (see the previous parts), Soul Bird is…
Craftsman
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…
Hikawa Brewery
Post by MothyHikawa Brewery is a small place, but in an area that doesn’t have much in the way of craft beer. It’s located less than a ten minute walk from Omiya Station near the Hikawa Shrine and Omiya Park. The interior prominently features, you guessed it, wood. It has counter seating for 15 and…
PDX Taproom
Today, a brief post on another new place, this one opened only last week. There has been a trickle of information regarding this place for the last six months or so but the actual opening seemed to come around quite quickly. I was in the area at the weekend, so took the opportunity to pay…
New Craft Beer Markets: Kichijoji
This post used to be a joint post with another Craft Beer Market. Check the other one out here if you are interested. The points that both have in common appear in both posts. Today, part one on two fairly new Craft Beer Markets (click here for all of the CBM posts in one place),…
Wiz Craft Beer & Food
The last of my three stops on Sunday, the possibly amusingly named Wiz is another pretty new place. Looks like the rush of openings is still going strong. Perhaps it was the location, but before I went I felt like it had a Craft Beer Market feel to it. In other words, lots of taps,…
