MugiWhat! Cafe by day, taproom by night? Coffee, bread, and craft beer in one place is an aggressively perfect combo!
Hop BroAnd the backbone is a bakery founded in 1923. Better life with upcycle has been making craft beer using leftover bread crusts, backed by real bakery craftsmanship.
MugiWait, what is double craft supposed to mean? It sounds like a special attack move!
Hop BroIt means boulangerie plus brewery. They combine bread-making and brewing, then turn food loss into new value through upcycling.
MugiOhh! But in this article, the beer name isn't announced yet, right? I thought there'd be a shiny new release name too!
Hop BroNot yet, and the style is still undisclosed too. This piece is mainly about the new shop, and the key angle is the upcycled bread-beer concept plus pairing beer with bread and food.
MugiOkay, wow. Bread and beer together already sounds like a win. Slow coffee in the daytime, then switch to pints at night? I'm in.
Hop BroThe address is 4-48 Sumiyoshicho, Naka Ward in Yokohama, and updates should come from @thirdgrain_yokohama. Making it an easy everyday stop is a smart move.
MugiI'm already calling first stop of the night! When it opens, I want bread, coffee, and then a craft beer finale.
Hop BroSame here, it's basically an all-day temptation. Once the beer lineup drops, this feels like the kind of place that makes you want to pick your first pour immediately.

Its base remains in Ebina, Kanagawa, and the brewery has expanded its presence through events and product releases.
The new shop is planned as a taproom cafe during the day, with coffee service, and as a taproom in the evening. According to the post, the goal is to create a comfortable space where carefully made bread, food, and craft beer can be enjoyed together. The team says more details, including the exact opening date, will be shared on the shop's own account, @thirdgrain_yokohama.
