Today, a place a bit out of Tokyo and not open so often. So far, so inconvenient (for me anyway). However, Beach Muffin could be my dream come true in a few ways. I had been meaning to go here for a while but hadn’t quite managed it. Beach Muffin is the tap room for…
Today, Miyata Beer, a fairly new brewpub based in Oshiage. It’s good to see that we are getting new breweries and brewpubs rather than just new pubs as there were so many new places opening that I was worrying that we were going to run out of beer.Miyata Beer seems to be very much a…
Firstly, apologies again for the terrible photo. Once again, I did it in a bit of a hurry on the way out. Today, another English themed pub, although once again, like Campion, the theme is only part of the whole, rather than being the reason for the place’s existence. It’s a bit out of the…
Today, a place that once again has something fairly unique to offer. I have no problem at all with there being lots of new and fairly similar bars around now. The more choice the better. But Kaeru Cafe is a bit different and because of this, I feel it’s worthy of a mention on here….
(This post was originally three beer shops in one day so to fully appreciate what’s going on, check the other two posts on Deguchiya and Night Owl) Hiranoya has undergone an upgrade! There are still plenty of bottles and cans to enjoy but there are now three taps. Also they have moved into the larger…
(This post was originally three beer shops in one day so to fully appreciate what’s going on, check the other two posts on Night Owl and Hiranoya) Onwards to Nakameguro and a little way north of the station along Yamatedori. Deguchiya is much bigger premises than Night Owl and has a huge stock of all…
(This post was originally three beer shops in one day so to fully appreciate what’s going on, check the other two posts on Deguchiya and Hiranoya) I was under the impression that this was a bar and beer shop, but after talking to the owner, it seems that the idea is more that you try…
Back to Yokohama today, and to Bay Brewing. This is somewhere I have been a couple of times before and is an important part of the Yokohama drinking scene. It’s a pretty small brewpub that (obviously) serves their own beers alongside some other Japanese craft stuff. The brewer and main man of Bay Brewing used…
So, here it is. A momentous day. I have been complaining on this blog for a long time that there were no good beer places in Uehara, and now Swan Lake have opened their second Pub Edo pretty close to the station (you can read what I thought of the initial Pub Edo near Tokyo…
Another week, another new Craft Beer Market. An exaggeration of course, but it does seem like they are expanding fast. This time the location is slightly different; the fancy new shopping centre Coredo 3 in Mitsukoshimae. This post will be pretty short, as the concept is the same in all of the CBM bars. I…
