Chiitoko Shoten, a beer pub in Shimosuwa Town, Nagano Prefecture where you can enjoy dagashi candy, craft beer, and coffee together, has published its tap list for its 3/20 business hours (10:00-22:00).

Hop BroChiitoko Shoten in Shimosuwa is lining up four beers for its 3/20 service. Since it's open from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., it's a great setup for a leisurely tasting session.
MugiWait, dagashi, beer, and coffee? That's a lot of information! You can enjoy beer and coffee at the same shop?
Hop BroYou can. The one to watch is Field Ales' new tap, PINT ~City Ale~. It's described as crisp, bitter, and dry, so it's a really versatile beer.
MugiHuh? Crisp and bitter sounds so stylish that it almost makes it harder to understand! What kind of flavor direction is that?
Hop BroSimply put, it has a light, lively drinkability with a pleasantly bitter finish. That makes it easy to pair with food and not feel too heavy even if you start drinking in the afternoon.
MugiOh, I get it! So it'd go well with light snacks, and it's basically a daytime beer, right? Wow, I'm getting excited already!
Hop BroAnd the range is interesting too, with Baeren Brewery's Classic 6.0%, Isekadoya Beer × VERTERE's Starwatcher IPA 7.0%, and Baird Brewing's Morning Coffee Stout 7.0% all on the list.
MugiWhat, an IPA and then a stout!? The swing in intensity is incredible. I wonder if my stomach can keep up!
Hop BroThat's what makes Chiitoko Shoten fun. Since they also have dagashi and baked goods, having a casual beer makes sense there. Starting with the Classic and finishing with the coffee stout would be great.
MugiI definitely want to go! Tasting beers in Shimosuwa while snacking on dagashi sounds way too fun. This is officially my reward for today!
