Golden Week and two football away games gave us the excuse to take an extremely indirect route back home from Fukuoka via Kyoto, visiting plenty of Shimane places on the way. We crossed into Tottori briefly, but the place we went to there was a Belgian beer bar, and having visited no other places, it…
Tokyo Beer Drinker has recently veered dangerously close to writing something about Osaka, which as I probably said in the case of Kyoto, is a quite frankly massive area that deserves a site of its own. Today we’re back in Kansai but have once again decided to kick the can down the road when it…
