Quite roomy place with a heavy Brewdog theme as you can probably see from the logo. No Japanese craft on tap, but they did have four taps of imported craft beer. On my visit they had Stone, Mikkeller and Brewdog on. Tap information is on their website and looking at this it seems they do…
I am kind of back. Will restart my posting with this brief one on The Pint, a little local bar near Shinmaruko station, just over the Tama river into Kawasaki. Not sure how regular new posts will be as I seem to not have much free time at the moment, but seeing as I have…
A brief post on Pump, a fairly new bar that opened late last year between Ikebukuro and Mejiro. – About 500m south of Ikebukuro on the main road. – Around 20 seats and place for about ten at the counter. – Bright and new decor with quite a young atmosphere. – Half, ¥500-¥700, Pint, ¥840-¥1180….
Pigalle is a European beer bar in Sangenjaya, a little west of Shibuya on the Den-en-toshi line (which incidentally has a reputation of being one of the most crowded lines in Tokyo). A short post as they don’t have much Japanese beer here, but that’s not really the point of the place! – Very small…
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. –…
Just a brief post today on a fairly new place that has opened in Yoyogi Uehara. I initially wasn’t sure whether I should put this on here as there is a lot of non-Craft beer there. But considering that I seem to keep going there I thought it owed it to them to publicise their…
Today, a brief post about a great restaurant that has good beer. Cactus Burrito is in suburban Kawasaki near Musashi-Shinjo station. I first became aware of them after a facebook post about them buying beer for the restaurant at Antenna America, and given that Mexican is one of my favourite foods, and one that is…
(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…
