A quick post today about what I think is the most recent of the iBrew bars to open. I have to admit, until I went here I had the impression that this was the same place as TBE Brewing, which I thought was a bit more expensive iBrew branch. Now I have no idea if…

Mikkeller Kanda
Today, a post on the recently opened Mikkeller Kanda, burger restaurant and beer bar. It’s a bit of an unfortunate time to be opening a new business but Mikkeller seem to be making the best of it with a nice new place with an interesting layout and some very nice burgers. Well to be honest,…
Cidernaut
Cidernaut is a relatively new bar near the heart of Shibuya, but is probably still slightly under the radar due to opening just before Coronavirus hit. It’s been a bad time for pretty much everyone I guess, but you’ve got to feel for people who started new hospitality related businesses this year. In spite of…
Craftrock Brewpub & Live
Craftrock Brewpub & Live, the latest place in the Craft Beer Market empire, (at least in Tokyo anyway), is their first foray into making beer instead of just serving it at very reasonable prices. Somewhat amusingly, the prices aren’t as cheap here, which seems like it could be counter-intuitive, but perhaps it’s actually more expensive…
Tachinomi Beer Boy Shibuya Parco
This is the newest Tokyo addition to the Craft Beer Market empire and it’s another Beer Boy. Personally, from my limited experience, I think I prefer the actual CBMs rather than the Beer Boys, but another place serving reasonably priced beers is always a good thing. If you’ve been to one Beer Boy, you’ll pretty…
Namachan Brewing / Smoke Beer Factory Otsuka
Today a post on what is a relatively under the radar, (at least in my eyes), small chain of pubs. Obviously, I can only vouch for the branch I went to, so the other two will remain on the digest post here. However, I imagine the experience is fairly similar though, even if the decor…
Two Fingers Craft Beer
Post by James Two Fingers has just opened on the north side of Ikebukuro. It is jointly owned by Nao and Stef. Nao is Japanese and I think Stef is Australian but he speaks decent Japanese. Both are chatty and probably what I liked best about Two Fingers is that it is the kind of…
Craft Beer Bar iBrew Akihabara
Much like the last post, where I suggested that you could find out all you need to know about Beer Kobo Shinjuku by reading the previous posts on Beer Kobo pubs and just changing the location, today’s post on the latest iBrew branch to open in Akihabara can repeat the trick by directing you to…
Beer Kobo Shinjuku
It’s taken me a while to get round to coming here but it shouldn’t really take long to write this blog post as I could just direct you to the other posts about Beer Kobo brew pubs here and be done with it. These places are not to everyone’s taste, but they definitely serve a…
Ise Kadoya Beer (Yaesu)
Today a place that I have been quite looking forward to visiting. In my opinion, Ise Kadoya have grown from being a solid if unspectacular brewery to one of Japan’s best in recent years. They are constantly releasing new beers and they rarely disappoint. So I was excited to hear that they were opening a…
