This small
liquor store on
Kamakura's
famous komachi-
dori shopping
street carries
the full line of
Shonan Beer.
Brewed at
Kumazawa Shuzo
in nearby
Chigasaki, it is
one of the best
microbrew brands
in Japan.
Unfortunately,
like other
better Japanese
microbrews,
Shonan Beer is
not cheap. But
at 500 yen per
bottle, it is
not like risking
many times more
money on a
bottle of wine.
In addition to
the Weizen
reviewed, other
types now
available
include a decent
Pilsener and an
interesting dark
ale called
Riibe. This shop
is also noted
for its good
selection of
Japanese
microbrewed
sake. About a 3-
minute walk from
Kamakura station
at 2-2-19
Komachi,
Kamakura City.
