My second cease on my mini Tachikawa taprooms tour was the brand new Vertere taproom, located simply not far away from the unique Sakamichi brewery and taproom. I don’t know what’s taking place with Vertere however they appear to be increasing rapidly in the intervening time. Sizzling on the heels of their Eifuku taproom, we now have a much bigger taproom, perhaps (form of) half means between the brand new Eifuku place and their authentic taproom and brewery in Okutama. It is sensible for Vertere to have a correct bar in a bit extra central space because the Okutama place now has fairly restricted opening hours. Anyway right here’s what you could know:
- A contemporary craft beer bar model inside in a barely old school trying constructing. A number of naked concrete and a collection of tables. Possibly seating for round 20 with just a little standing space too. Be careful for the step between the doorway space and the bar. I noticed somebody spill a number of their drink as a result of it. I’ve to say that the tables for 2 close to the door are just a little cramped with regards to attending to them when going to and from the bar, (there’s no desk service so that you is likely to be getting up and sitting down a bit if you happen to there for a session), so I’d in all probability sit someplace else subsequent time.
- A bumper 20 faucets of their very own beers, at fairly regular costs. Beer often served in two sizes, the 330ml common and the 475ml massive. Very robust stuff is served the particular ‘onesize’ dimension which is 250ml. Costs for the common ranged from ¥900-¥1200 and for the bigger ranged from ¥1200 to ¥1500. There was just one ‘onesize’ beer on the checklist once I visited and that price ¥1100. There’s undoubtedly good worth available if you wish to drink the cheaper stuff. I did, and never simply due to the value. A number of cans within the fridge however they’re for takeaway solely, which males me assume that’s in all probability the case with the Eifuku department too.
- Cashless fee solely. That is changing into more and more frequent just lately. No cowl cost, plenty of daytime opening (watch out although, it closes at 10:00 so maybe just a little sooner than some may count on). I couldn’t discover / didn’t verify for WiFi. I can’t bear in mind which of these it’s, however I believe the previous. Feels just like the form of place that might have it although, doesn’t it?
I believe I in all probability mentioned the identical factor in regards to the Eifuku taproom, however I fairly like Vertere’s beers, so this was a pleasant place for me to go to. The truth that there are many faucets is sweet for me as I get more and more fussy as I become older. There have been a variety of kinds so maybe there’s one thing for everybody right here. While it’s at all times enjoyable to go to Okutama, it’s fairly far, and as they don’t take reservations on the authentic taproom, it’s a little bit of a danger to go there together with your fingers crossed all the way in which. So a considerably extra accessible location should be a superb factor. The benefit this place has over Eifuku is that there are double the quantity of faucets and there are infinitely extra seats (I believe my maths is technically right on that entrance). I assume the drawback may come relying on the place you’re visiting from, as Tachikawa continues to be a little bit of a hike from central Tokyo. However considerably for me, it’s someplace that I discover myself going every now and then, so I’m fairly positive I’ll be again right here once more a while.
