MugiWait, live music right in front of the shop!? If it’s that close, I feel like I’d be part of the stage just by drinking beer!
Hop BroAnd the venue is in front of Liquors Nodaya, right next to Beer Pub Ishii, with a standing, donation-based setup. It sounds like the kind of place where you can just drop in and soak up the sound and the crowd’s energy as it is.
MugiWith a donation system, how much am I supposed to put in? If I dump in a bunch of one-yen coins, that’d be awkward, right?
Hop BroWhat matters is the feeling, but since they’re also planning to sell CDs and beer that day, there are plenty of ways to show support. Watching the live set, then picking up a recording and a drink if you like it, sounds like a great flow.
MugiThat’s the best! And the beer to drink is Shiga Kogen Beer, right? The name alone sounds strong!
Hop BroThe one named specifically is "Draft Pale Ale." Pale ale is all about balancing aroma and drinkability, so it’s the kind of beer you can easily knock back between songs.
MugiHuh! But what kind of beer is pale ale, anyway? From the name alone I can’t even tell whether it’s light or dark!
Hop BroRoughly speaking, it has a nice balance of malt sweetness and hop aroma, with a feel that’s brisk yet layered. Beer Pub Ishii usually has four taps, with Kirin’s Heartland Lager and a daily-changing selection of Japanese craft beers, so the lineup is solid too.
MugiWow, having daily rotating craft beer too is great. If I go on the day of the live show, I’d probably get energized by both the music and the beer!
Hop BroAnd if it rains or the weather gets rough, they’ll announce by 10:00 a.m. that day whether it’s on, so it’s nice and easy to check before going. I’d love to soak in the atmosphere of Yomise-dori and enjoy the performance and a drink all at once.
MugiI definitely want to go! Just thinking about a drink after the music makes my throat go dry!
Hop BroExactly. Days like this are great because the whole storefront turns fun. I’d love to toast with a Shiga Kogen Beer in hand while listening to Oofuji Tsubo.
MugiIt’s decided! I’m seriously aiming for a drink after the live show today!

About the Shop
Beer Pub Ishii is a small pub that mainly serves craft beer carefully brewed in Japan, and its appeal is that it is easy to use as an everyday spot, including for meals. Its location on the shopping street of Yomise-dori also adds to the charm, because on live-event days the atmosphere of the street and the closeness of the storefront become part of the appeal. The highlight this time is being able to enjoy Oofuji Tsubo’s performance together with the pub’s usual beer.
