Post by Mothy Musashi Urawa has a craft beer bar! This is not a drill! Musashi Urawa finally has a craft beer bar! As you may be able to tell from my opening, I have been anxiously awaiting the day when someone would recognize the gap in the market and put a good place for…

Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke
I have to say, it’s been a long time for me between Craft Beer Server Land visits. A very long time. My main memory from the Kagurazaka branch is that I quite enjoyed going there in those days when there weren’t many bars around. I was pleasantly surprised to hear that they’d opened a branch…
Yup! Tokyo
Yup! is somewhere that I have walked past many times, always intending to pop in at some stage but never actually doing so. That is until now. Finally I’ve managed to have a beer there. Here’s what you need to know (sorry, this is all quite brief). I have to say, I’m pleased I finally…
Tokyo Beer Lab
Bit of a weird one this. I wasn’t sure whether to give it a full write up or not, but I’ve decided I might as well, given that I have now visited. In the long tradition of new breweries in Tokyo, they have opened but are not brewing yet. This wasn’t really that clear until…
Bay Brewing Yokohama Front
Two recent jaunts to Yokohama for football meant that I could finally go to this new, (to me), Bay Brewing place very near Yokohama station. Situated on the second floor of a shopping centre (Yokohama Front) quite close to the north west exit of the station, this is a very convenient spot to get some…
Pecora Beer
I don’t know how likely it is that you will find yourself in Satsukidai, one stop west of Shin Yurigaoka on the Karakida branch of the Odakyu line. But in the event that you do, it’s worth pointing out that there is now a brewpub there for you to visit. Pecora opened last year, (I…
Sakamichi North
The third and final stop on my brief Tachikawa brewery crawl was a bit of a surprise. After visiting Tachihi and then going to Vertere, I was doing a bit of preparation for my planned next stop at Sakamichi when I visited their website and discovered the existence of a mysterious new(ish) place called Sakamichi…
Vertere Tachikawa Taproom
My second stop on my mini Tachikawa taprooms tour was the new Vertere taproom, situated just round the corner from the original Sakamichi brewery and taproom. I don’t know what’s happening with Vertere but they seem to be expanding quickly at the moment. Hot on the heels of their Eifuku taproom, we now have a…
Tachihi Brewery
I’m not sure if I’m just really slow on the uptake recently but Tachihi Brewery seemed to come out of nowhere for me. I guess I’m not going to beer festivals as much as I used to, and at the same time am perhaps not paying as much attention to the beer scene as you’d…
Vertere Eifuku Taproom
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…
