As the name suggests this places serves both beer and whisky.  On this occasion I was just interested in a few beers after a bunch of work calls to finish up my day as a digital nomad.

The craft beers here are very interesting, I had the Luplin Tree and Lush IPA and they both certainly lived up to the hoppy hype!

Adorning the walls is all kinds of brewery memorabilia, so there is plenty to keep your eyes entertained and off the phone; the most eye-catching decorations were the mahjong whisky bottle set - first time seeing that.

Would definitely return here for a longer session with company; but without a crew I just had 2.

We had a great time at this tiny little hidden venue yesterday. The barman was very friendly and speaks good English so we were able to chat with him along with two other local patrons. When we first came in around 8:30-9pm there were only three other people there, but it filled up quickly when 10pm rolled in so come early.

Nice selection of local beer. A bit expensive, but we noticed this seemed to be the norm for craft beer in Japan after visiting a few bars in Tokyo, Osaka, Hiroshima and Nara.

Keep in mind that there are no chairs, only the bar, counters and high tables to lean on, so if you have trouble standing for long periods of time you might not be fully comfortable there.

We definitely made great memories there. Highly recommended!

Local brewery with around 14 standing spots to drink and eat. No seating or tables so don’t come here if you want to sit down. A one man shop so manage expectations. Heavy metal music playing which throws off the vibe a lil.

The beer is a bit overpriced and always gives me a terrible headache the next day. Additionally, I’m not pleased with how they treat their customers. I don’t plan on returning.

Always changing & well curated combo of domestic and international craft beers on 8 taps, and a fridge full of yummy tins. Food pairs well. Highly recommended.
