[THIS BAR HAS MOVED, SO I’VE REMOVED THE PICTURE UNTIL I CAN TAKE A NEW ONE AND HAVE CHANGED THE ADDRESS AND MAPS. I’M GUESSING THE REST OF THE DETAILS ARE PRETTY MUCH THE SAME, BUT SORRY IF THEY’RE NOT] I visited Synchronicity ages ago, back in the Spring and was intending to pop in…

Living Craft Beer Bar
It took me a while to finally make it here after my first attempted visit was thwarted by a private party. Living is maybe the closest craft beer place to Yamashita Koen, so isn’t quite in Kannai, bar centre of Yokohama, but is still pretty close in the whole scheme of things. – Bit of…
Titans Craft Beer Taproom & Bottle Shop
Post by James Titans is a Taproom and bottle shop that has just opened right next to Otsuka station. It is a collaboration between two beer importers AQ Bevolution and Beer Cats. Titans has three floors. The first floor has the counter and large fridges. There is one small table and standing space. The second…
Keyaki Beer Festival Autumn 2016
It’s that time of year again for us to enter the Super Arena and drink to excess. Keyaki is back and as it’s Autumn, it’s inside. I have to say when they first started putting the Autumn festival inside I was a bit disappointed, but I have grown to appreciate it for it’s ample seating…
Baird Bashamichi Taproom
Baird Bashamichi is another place that I’ve been a few times but for some reason have never added. Possibly when I go to Yokohama I get a bit overwhelmed and forget to take pictures and notes. But anyway, here it finally is. As there are significant similarities with the other Baird taprooms, I will concentrate…
Umaya/Yokohama Brewery
Today a quick post on somewhere that I’ve been before but didn’t put on here for some reason. Since then, they seem to have rebranded from Pivovar to Umaya, maybe suggesting that the focus is now the food rather than the beer (just a guess). Yokohama Brewery has been something of a mainstay in the…
Beer Cafe Hopman
A couple of stops down the train line from Fujisawa is a place that I have been looking forward to trying for a long while. Hopman is the sister bar of Ushitora (but don’t let that put you off…) as the people who opened it used to work at the Shimokitazawa home of bad service…
Mokichi Craft Beer
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…
Beer Brain
(THIS PLACE HAS MOVED AGAIN. GIVEN THAT IT’S A TRAILER, IT WILL PROBABLY BE PRETTY MUCH THE SAME, SO JUST IGNORE THE BITS AROUND THE EDGE OF THE PICTURE AND THE BITS THAT TALK ABOUT THE PREVIOUS LOCATIONS AND JUST FOLLOW THE MAP) A few months ago a slightly bizarre video started appearing on Facebook…
Hamamatsu round-up part 3: Tir Na n-Og
(This post was originally on three different places. They have now been split into individual posts. Click the links for part 1 and part 2) An Irish bar in Japan that serves Baird beer. Not sure what the Irish part is, apart from the name actually. This is pretty much a Baird taproom with the…
