Today a quick post about another Swan Lake Pub Edo in Tokyo, this time in Tamachi. The deal is pretty much the same as it is in the other Swan Lake places, I have already posted about. You can check the post on the original Pub Edo near Tokyo station here and the Yoyogi Uehara…

Novel Craft
Novel Craft is the second of three craft beer places in Chitosekarasuyama that I’m going to put on here. The first was Beerttoria Miagolare and the next will be Ann’s (but it was closed on the night I tried to tick all three of these off). I went there with some apprehension, as I’d heard…
Spicarbo
I have never really had any reason to go to Komae city, just before the Odakyu line crosses the Tama river until now. In an attempt to get some of this horrific backlog done, I decided to pay a quick visit to Spicarbo last week. If you’re a fan of walking, this could be part…
Beer Pub 25
Today a pretty small place out in Mitaka. I think the only other time I’ve been to Mitaka was to go to Drunk Bat. Beer Pub 25 is another decent place in a neighbourhood that I’m not particularly familiar with, but which you could easily combine with Kichijoji if you were in a pub crawl…
Kazenori Merry
Today, we’re in Shimo Kitazawa again and this time it’s for a place that might be familiar to people who have been drinking in the area before. Kazenori Merry is located in what used to be the old Ushi Tora 1, a couple of doors along from Ushi Tora 2 (the standing bar). It’s run…
Va Bene Shimokitazawa (& Kichijoji)
[Pretty much as soon as I decided to split all the posts that I had previously grouped by area, I’ve now decided to group two places together. The reason for this is that I don’t think the Va Bene in Kichijoji is worthy of mentioning in its own right, but thought I’d add the info…
Ushi Tora (new location)
Ushi Tora has moved. The old standing bar is still there (check here for a post on that place), but their main bar has now crossed the tracks to the area north of where the Odakyu and Inokashira lines meet. I have a bit of a troubled relationship with Ushi Tora. I’ve had some bad…
Small World Records & Cafe
Today a brief post on another record shop with nice beer. Small World is located halfway between Pigalle and Awashima Soko. It’s a small place and very much a labour of love. What you can see in the picture above is pretty much all of it. They sell records of an experimental nature and serve…
Kanazawa round up part 3: Craft Beer Dive Futa’s
Just as I posted the two Kanazawa places that Rich kindly visited and wrote about for me, I have received a email from my friend Nevitt, a beer blogger in Kansai with some information about the elusive Craft Beer Dive Futa’s. So, here we go, a complete Kanazawa set for you. Click these links for…
Kanazawa round up part 2: Korinbo Jibiruba
And now, the second of two posts on Kanazawa by a new blog helper. Please click here for part 1. [And thanks to Nevitt, we now have a part 3 too. Check it out here] Post by Rich After our wonderful meal of ramen and beer, we stepped out to Korinbo Jibiruba, just a few…
