Craft Beer Bar, Kannai

After hearing of The Thrash Zone, I also found some information about another new Yokohama Japanese microbrew bar, The Craft Beer Bar. This was in Kannai, not far from the station.
This place has only been open for 2 months now, so I had never been here before.
It isn't the easiest place to find, either. It's down a small side alley.


On entering, I found myself in a small bar/room area, with a short sunken bar to my right.
There were about 10 taps located near the door.
THe barman was dressed imaculately.
The only other customer (whole place seats 8 at bar and another 8 at 2 tables at the back) was a pleasant Japanese gentleman who spoke very good American English.
My beer of choice was tehb Fujisakura doppelbock.
A strong (about 8% aclohol) wheat beer from Fujisakura Kougen in Kawaguchiko, near Mt.Fuji. It was very nice.

Fujisakura dopplebock verdict: 7/10.

You can perhaps see one of the real ale hand pumps, of which there are two, on the right side.

The webpage is all in Japanese but it's possible to scroll down and find the map on the right hand side.

In case you missed it, here it is:

You can see the baseball stadium on the right side.
The beer bar is the star, located up a small alley.

Kannai Station is just 2 stops from Yokohama on the JR line.

This small bar was very clean and spotless.
The glasses were nice. The beer poured well.
The price isn't cheap.
700yen for about 360ml or 1000yen for a pint.
But all the beer here is Japanese craft beer and not bad stuff it is either.

The Craft Beer Bar: 6/10.
