On a recent trip to Hachioji I realised that I was quite close to somewhere that has been on my ‘to go to’ list for a long time. I was always curious about the name of this place and recently when I heard some good things about it, I decided that I should finally give…
Tsumugi, or if you want to translate its full name into English, Craft beer shop Tsumugi on the second floor, is a Japanese craft beer bar not far from Minami Kashiwa station. It’s not the easiest to find but if you follow the map and look at the picture above and go up the stairs…
Today a brief post about a new place out in West Tokyo in Inagi, which I discovered as part of my ongoing and slightly pointless challenge to have a craft beer in every part of Tokyo. Last year there was nothing in Inagi when it came to craft beer other than Yomiuri Land’s Tap Marche…
Takao Brewing have recently opened a new taproom that is a bit easier to get to than their previous location. I have long been interested in visiting them as you don’t really see their beers around much, (at least not where I am looking, I guess). So the fact that their new place is very…
As you might have guessed, this was another place I visited on my ongoing quest to have a craft beer in every area of Tokyo. I think prior to going here, the only time I had previously set foot in Ome was when I changed train on the way to Okutama. I probably wouldn’t have…
This is an even shorter post than the usual short posts. Basically, Vertere now have a bottle shop (or should it really be called a can shop?), right opposite the train station. If you are going to the taproom it’s almost impossible to miss, so perhaps this post is kind of pointless. But I thought…
I’d heard a lot about Kichi before I managed to visit. Lots of people had said it was a nice place with good beer so I made a note to try to visit as soon as possible. As any long term readers will know, as soon as possible when it comes to Tokyo Beer Drinker…
Today, a place that has been on my radar for a little while but which I haven’t had the chance to visit till now. Neko No Shuukaijyo, which I guess is translated as the cats’ meeting place is very close to Umegaoka station on the Odakyu line. I think the last time I was in…
Sunny Hop is a Craft Beer and hotdogs place located in between Higashi Kitazawa and Shimo Kitazawa stations, a little closer to the former but equally not far from the latter. I had not heard of the place at all but stumbled upon it when I walked past. Here’s what you need to know. I…
Enjoy is a place that I have walked past a few times but had never entered till this visit. I’d always been intrigued by some of the things on their taplist, (which they post outside, an excellent idea, I think!), and the look of some of the bottles in their fridge. This time I was…
