AWAYA

This beer bar specializes in domestic craft beer, based on the owner's desire to "allow people to enjoy brands from all over Japan."

There are eight types of carefully selected domestic craft beer on tap, two on tap and six in bottles. The menu lists the type of beer, alcohol content, and region of origin, so choosing a beer from your favorite region is one of the fun things to do. Owner Ishizuka-san has experience as a head chef at an Italian restaurant, and offers a wide variety of dishes, from light snacks to pizza and pasta. The seafood menu, which he carefully selected after visiting Adachi Market, is particularly popular. The restaurant opened in Senju Ohashi in 2018 and moved to its current location in Kita-Senju in 2022. The relaxed atmosphere, which is close to the local community, is also comfortable. This is a restaurant you'll want to visit often to enjoy the ever-changing beer list and seasonal dishes.

Adachi Brewery (Adachi Brewery)

A new beer brewery has opened in Adachi Ward! Sales began in February 2024. The brand is called "Adachi Beer." Currently, in addition to direct sales at the brewery, you can purchase it at liquor stores in the ward or drink it at restaurants. Although it is a small brewery, all processes from malt saccharification to fermentation, storage, and bottling are carried out in-house, and it takes about 3 to 4 weeks to finish the beer. By using different methods, such as temperature control and the balance of malt and hops, they brew five types of beer: Pilsner, Pale Ale, IPA, Weizen, and Porter. Thanks to the strict quality control of brewmaster Miyahara, all of the beers are sure to impress beer lovers. Be sure to be one of the first to try this popular craft beer that bears the name "Adachi"!

[Adachi Beer (Pilsner/IPA)]

The Pilsner (left) uses Mosaic hops, which have a fruity aroma, and has a refreshing taste. The IPA, which uses three types of hops, has a punchy, full-bodied flavor.

Currently, there are five types of bottles, including the four shown in the photo and a dark porter beer. They plan to add one more type in the future, so look forward to it.

The brewery also does bottling. Although the process is simple, it must be done carefully to avoid contact with oxygen.

[Exterior / Interior]]

  • Beer and merchandise are sold directly on-site, so be sure to stop by.
  • The brewery is located in a corner of a residential area. Look for the "Adachi Beer" flag and logo.
