Another day, another new brewery! Although once again, I visited before the place actually started brewing. ‘And Beer’, or ‘& Beer’, or ‘アンドビール’, take your pick, is situated in a nice new building almost smack between Asagaya and Koenji stations. Brewing is due to start sometime around March. Here’s what you need to know. –…
Firstly, apologies for the terrible photo. There are some pretty bad ones on this blog, but I’m reaching new depths with this one, snapped with about a millisecond’s thought as I entered the pub. Twelve is somewhere I’ve been meaning to get to for a long time as it’s part of the KO (Keio) Craft…
I was completely unaware of this place until I was tipped off about it by one of my fellow Gremlin regulars (thanks Tatchy). Kagoya seems to be a long standing sake shop that has recently expanded into a bar/restaurant and brewery. It’s a nice looking place, but quite far from public transport, so I’m guessing…
Beer Cellar Tokyo is a fairly recently opened, bar, bottle shop and soon to be brewery located in Komae in west Tokyo, not too far from Komae or Kitami stations on the Odakyu line. There seems to be a connection with Beer Cellar Sapporo, at least nominally and thematically. The big difference is that it…
Today a quick post on somewhere that had previously appeared on my digest post but now has a full entry on here. Good Sleep Baker is a bar with bakery upstairs in an area that I didn’t really have anything on my Tokyo Beer Drinker map. It’s within about a 20 minute walk of Umegaoka’s…
Today, the other place that I went to in Fuchu. You can check out the post on Beer House Ken here and I would recommend that if you’re in the area, you do both of these places in a mini crawl. Much like Beer House Ken, Asaya doesn’t have the largest selection compared to some…
Almost immediately after starting my digest post about places that I wasn’t getting time to go to, and adding Mitsuya to that post, I found myself in Asagaya, so was able to revisit the place. I went there a few times a few years ago, but for one reason or another I didn’t add it…
Novel Craft is the second of three craft beer places in Chitosekarasuyama that I’m going to put on here. The first was Beerttoria Miagolare and the next will be Ann’s (but it was closed on the night I tried to tick all three of these off). I went there with some apprehension, as I’d heard…
I have never really had any reason to go to Komae city, just before the Odakyu line crosses the Tama river until now. In an attempt to get some of this horrific backlog done, I decided to pay a quick visit to Spicarbo last week. If you’re a fan of walking, this could be part…
Today a pretty small place out in Mitaka. I think the only other time I’ve been to Mitaka was to go to Drunk Bat. Beer Pub 25 is another decent place in a neighbourhood that I’m not particularly familiar with, but which you could easily combine with Kichijoji if you were in a pub crawl…
