THIS PLACE IS NOW CLOSED This post used to be a joint post with another Craft Beer Market. Check the other one out here if you are interested. The points that both have in common appear in both posts. Today, part one on two fairly new Craft Beer Markets (click here for all of the…

iBrew Wired (NOW CLOSED)
THIS PLACE IS NOW CLOSED, PERHAPS THE FIRST BAR VICTIM OF CORONAVIRUS… Quick post on a new branch of iBrew, very close to the original iBrew. I’m pleased to see that they are branching out again after what happened to the iBrew in Shinbashi which turned into an oyster bar and therefore became pretty redundant…
Project (NOW CLOSED)
THIS PLACE IS NOW CLOSED This is part two on Nishiogikubo. Part 1 is here. Pretty different to Beer Kobo and certainly seemed to attract a different crowd. Project is a pretty classy beer and dining place, much smaller than Beer Kobo and the other way from the station. The decor is very wooden again,…
Nishiogi Beer Kobo (NOW CLOSED)
THIS PLACE IS NOW CLOSED This is part one on Nishiogikubo and a couple of places I visited last week. Thanks to Iain OBRF for showing me round. If you like records, you should check out his site here. Both have opened fairly recently so it seems that the trend for numerous new places continues….
Mile Post (NOW EITAI BREWING) (AND NOW CLOSED)
THE MILE POST IS NO MORE, NOW IT’S EITAI BREWING. AS THE CAFE IS THE SAME SPACE, I’VE LEFT THIS POST HERE, BUT FOR MORE UP TO DATE INFORMATION, PLEASE CHECK THE EITAI BREWING POST HERE Do you like bikes? Do you like beer? Do you like bikes and beer? Or in fact any combination…
Craft Beer Market Koenji (NOW CLOSED)
THIS PLACE IS NOW CLOSED. I’VE HEARD THERE WILL BE A NEW PLACE OPENING IN THE SAME LOCATION BUT IT MIGHT BE MORE FOOD FOCUSSED. WE’LL SEE WHEN IT OPENS The fifth Craft Beer Market, and it’s a bit of a departure for them. Well, in terms of geographical location. Pretty much everything else is…
World Beer Market (NOW CLOSED)
THIS PLACE HAS NOW MOVED TO THE OTHER SIDE OF KITA SENJU STATION. CHECK OUT THE NEW POST HERE Today, a fantastic beer shop in Kita Senju. I visited here a year or so ago, and it was good. But since then they seem to have considerably upped their game. Maybe it’s not particularly convenient…
23 Craft Beerz (NOW CLOSED)
THIS PLACE HAS NOW CLOSED SADLY I was a little confused at first with this name as they didn’t seem to actually have 23 taps, but when we went the second time and sat at the bar, I spotted a couple of handpumps and felt thoroughly reassured. Behind the bar they have 20 taps…
iBeer Le Sun Palm (NOW CLOSED)
A rival for Craft Beer Server Land in the crazy named bar competition. Shopping centre craft beer bar in the food court on the 7th floor of Hikarie in Shibuya. Seems to be very much targeted at Hikarie’s regular shopping crowd (women in their twenties). – 12 taps of Japanese craft beer and about 30…
Good Meals Shop (NOW CLOSED… I think)
THIS PLACE SEEMS TO NOW BE CLOSED BUT I’M HAVING SOME TROUBLE 100% VERIFYING Recently, given the huge number of new places opening, its has become a little tough to keep up. My list of bars that I need to check out is getting longer and is maybe even out of control. New places are…
