WCB Umeda 1: Umeda 1-chome
This outlet of Shizuoka's highly regarded West Coast Brewery is equipped with six taps dispensing their beers, plus a couple of fridges filled with canned and bottled product. The brewery is known for their innovative, high-quality seasonal beers, so there's plenty to explore.
There's standing room at the front of the shop and a handful of seats at the bar, where you can order from their small food menu if you want something to go with your drinks. Snacks include grilled sausages, yaki-onigiri with uni sauce, and pate de campagne.
Note that there's an extra Y200 charge if you want to drink one of the canned or bottled beers here at the bar. Draft beers come in three sizes and are priced from just over Y1,000 for a small glass.
