I’ve finally made it to Beer Shop Llama so have done a major revamp of this post. Normally in this situation I just update the new part and leave the old bits for reference, but in this case I think it would end up with too much mess, so everything here is about Llama and…
Another great bottle shop with a decent selection, in an area not blessed with many options. – Bottle shop in Shimokitazawa with a good selection of Japanese beers and imports at decent prices. – Several fridges full and plenty of Japanese stuff – Lots of US imports from a mix of importers. Nice variety. –…
Spotted another Satellite shop and from a prefecture that I don’t think I’ve found one for yet. This time we’re in Iidabashi and it’s Aomori. Aomori Hokusaikan Three breweries here, one bottle from Minami Tsugaru brewery (never heard of it!) for ¥800, one from Osore brewery (never heard of it!) for ¥801 and one from…
A quick post on another Satellite shop that I’ve found. It’s another Akita one, and with not as much stock as the other Akita one, but thought it was worth mentioning in case you’re in the area, as there are a lot of hotels here. I also thought that maybe some more will crop up…
Another station beer shop. Once again, inside the barriers, this time at Akihabara. I will keep this reasonably brief as there’s not a great deal to say! Thanks to Phil for the tip. Check out his blog Kansai Beer Lovers. Seems like there is also one of these at Ueno, but I haven’t been there…
(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…
Today, a brief entry on Stone in Asagaya. Brief, because it doesn’t really have much of a focus on Japanese beers, but an entry all the same, as it is a great place to go and have a nice beer. Stone’s focus is hoppy beers, and unsurprisingly this means it is skewed towards US imports…
Back to Satellite shops, and this will for the time being, be a very small post, as at the moment this is the only Satellite Shop I have found in the Shinjuku area. As ever, if you know of any more in the area, please let me know on tokyobeerdrinker@gmail.com and I’ll visit and add…
