The beer pub “Chiitoko Shoten, the shop for dagashi, beer, and coffee” in Shimosuwa Town, Suwa District, Nagano Prefecture, has released its business information for Sunday, April 5, along with that day’s draft lineup. In the post, the shop introduced four labels from Isekadoya Beer and Shiga Kogen Beer, alongside mention of “one newly opened keg.”

This Day’s Draft


- Mugi no Manimani 5.0% / Isekadoya Beer
- Golden Dragon 4.0% / Isekadoya Beer
- Baby Blonde Miyama 5.0% / Shiga Kogen Beer
- Snow Monkey IPA 6.0% / Shiga Kogen Beer

Looking at the lineup, it ranges from the easy-drinking 4.0% Golden Dragon to Snow Monkey IPA, which should deliver a more pronounced hop presence. With two breweries familiar to Japanese craft beer fans, Isekadoya Beer and Shiga Kogen Beer, side by side, there is also the pleasure of comparing their different flavor directions.

Chiitoko Shoten is distinctive for combining dagashi, beer, and coffee, creating a shop atmosphere that keeps beer at the center while remaining laid-back and approachable. Its location makes it easy to stop by while walking around Shimosuwa, and it seems like a place to enjoy not just the beer, but the atmosphere of the shop itself.

Business hours are Sunday, April 5, from 10:00 to 22:00. The shop is located at 3217-5 Midamachi Shimo, Shimosuwa Town, Suwa District, Nagano Prefecture. For anyone who likes following changing draft selections and enjoying a drink with dagashi, it looks set to be a good day to visit.
