Buso Brewery is a fairly recently opened brewpub situated right next to the Odakyu line station in Machida. The brewery also seems to go under the name of Kawasemi Brew. Perhaps Kawasemi will be opening other brew pubs in the future. Further muddying the water is the fact that in their Instagram bio it says…
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…
I feel like I’ve mentioned my love of Prost on a few occasions on here so it will come as no surprise that I recently found myself out in Hachioji again. I was slightly surprised to find that there was somewhere on my map of places to go that was extremely near to Prost that…
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…
Even though it has been open for quite a while, until now I’ve failed to get to Bay Brewing’s Totsuka branch. This is in part due to the fact that I don’t get to Yokohama particularly often and every time I do, there are so many new places that have opened, and they are a…
Today a place that I was going to save and add to the next digest post, but maybe feels like it deserves a post of its own. There’s not a great deal to say though, so it will be very brief and all condensed into one paragraph. Maybe this is a good way to go…
In The House is another fairly new place in the Harajuku / Gaienmae area and it seemed pretty popular when we popped in early evening on a Saturday. Here’s what you need to know. This was another nice place to visit in an area booming with craft beer bars. When it comes to things being…
Written by James After climbing Mount Tsukuba (for work as it happens) I decided to check out Tsukuba Brewery. The first thing to note is that it’s quite hard to get to. Even if you are at Tsukuba station, it’s still a 3km walk or taxi ride away. That said, if you are in Tsukuba…
Let’s Beer Works is a place that has been on my ‘to visit’ list for a while but the limited opening hours have always foiled me. Well, until now! I managed to finally get there on my way to Urawa for a football away game. En-route my shoe self-destructed. This is of no interest to…
Post by James About a 1km walk from Kunitachi station will take you to Kunitachi Brewing and Bakushokudo Kasugai. They are next door to each other and owned by the same people. Basically it is a brewery with its own restaurant and tasting room next door. You don’t seem to be able to drink at…
