I recently made the trip out of Tokyo to Shonan (football again) and once again took the chance to visit a few beer places that I have been meaning to put on here for ages. Firstly, it’s Mokichi Craft Beer, the beer restaurant of the Shonan brewery in Fujisawa. I went here once before, quite…
(This post was originally on three different places. They have now been split into individual posts. Click the links for part 2 and part 3) Another post about a city mainly centred around a football away day. Hopefully, I will be able to get back to dealing with some of my Tokyo backlog soon. But…
(This was originally one post rounding up Sendai, but now it has been split into separate entries. The other places are mentioned in part 1 and part 3) [To see all the Sendai posts on this blog, click here] UPDATE: The old Craft Beer Market in Sendai has closed… but as you can…
(This was originally one post rounding up Sendai, but now it has been split into separate entries. The other places are mentioned in part 2 and part 3) [To see all the Sendai posts on this blog, click here] Another trip out of Tokyo for football, and once again I thought it was worth mentioning…
[Apparently, they now allow smoking inside, so another reason for some not to go here] Seems that Craftsman is becoming a fast growing chain recently. They have fairly recently opened new bar/restaurants in Kichijoji and Yokohama. There will be a post on the Kichijoji branch fairly soon, but as I was in Yokohama for football,…
(This post was previously part of a Niigata round up with three places in one. They have now been split into separate entries. The other parts are part 1 and part 2) Thanks to Mark for messaging us shortly before we arrived in Niigata and telling us we should check out Nuttari. I don’t think…
A brief post on the latest Craft Beer Market, this time in Otemachi. First, the stuff that I always write about Craft Beer Market branches. It has the usual 30 taps of cheap beer in the usual sizes at the usual prices. Most beers are served in two sizes 250ml (¥480) and 473ml (¥780). Barley…
Post by James Vector Beer Vector Beer is close to Shinjuku Gyoenmae and pretty close to Shinjuku Sanchome. It has a system which is very similar to Craft Beer Market, i.e. there is a charge to get in (¥350) but the beer is cheap (¥450 for a glass and ¥750 for a US pint). Tax…
(This was originally two places on one post. It has now been split. Part 2 is here) Today, a brief excursion a little way out of Tokyo into Yamanashi, the home of Outsider brewing. We were in Kofu for one night only for football but fortunately that seems to be enough time to deal with…
Post by Mothy The other day I took a trip to Gotanda and made a stop at Craftsman. It’s a short walk from the station, so if you are in the area it’s a convenient place for a beer. Though they seem to be more on the side of a restaurant that serves beer rather…
