FAR YEAST TOKYO - fresh, 'live' beer inspired in Tokyo with Belgian style

Tokyo had the forth declaration of a state of emergency from July 12th to August 22nd, 2021. Well, I'm fed up with those restrictions...😑  So this weekend is the last one to be able to enjoy alcohol at the restaurant for the time being. I tried out a beer restaurant I'd been always interested in since I moved into this city.

Far Yeast Tokyo Brewery & Grill  1-15-6 Gotanda Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo

It is a brewery restaurant. Isn't it great that a beer restaurant has a brewery in its building? It reminds me of Griffin Claw Brewing Company in Birmingham, Michigan.

I came for my lunch on Saturday. Of course I ordered beer, too! My first beer here was "Tokyo White". The first sip of the beer blew me away. What a rich and sophisticated aroma it gives off...! Tokyo White is fruity and refreshing with its hop flavor. Fine hops must be selected. I liked that beer is served by the glass like a wine glass, which is Belgian Style I believe.

The beer is delivered directly from an adjoining brewery. No wonder it's fresh, and 'live' beer!

FAR YEAST TOKYO inspired in Tokyo, reflecting the vibrant city is improving its beer to be even more impressive. 

Grilled chicken was tasty, too💚  This place got one of my favorite restaurants in my city. Surely I'll come back here after the state of emergency is lifted. To be frank with you, it'd be wonderful if I could be here with Collie like we went to Griffin Claw in Birmingham, Michigan. 

Tokyo Brewery Gotanda is an elegant beer pub serving freshly made beer. It is hard to visit here from your country because of this situation, however, if you ever have a chance to travel to Tokyo, I truly think Far Yeast Tokyo Brewery & Grill is worth your visit to taste this 'live' beer with a gorgeous aroma. I hope you enjoy the original beer from Japan to the world!

All the best, Rose

Confession night at St.Joseph Catholic Church in Lake Orion, Michigan

Collie seems to have made a confession at St.Joseph. He is a devout Catholic and often goes to confession. From the date of the picture he sent me, I knew it was taken on the day he said he would go to confession in his e-mail. The time was late at night. 

He has hunger deep in his soul for something. There is nothing I can do about it, but I shouldn't worry. Because - I trust in God. Collie is a strong man. In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity. 

Healthy & delicious❤︎ My usual breakfast is overnight oats with soy yogurt.

When it comes to breakfast, I could say I'm an overnight oats person. I soak oatmeal overnight in a little watered soy milk. Next morning, I take out some from a plastic container in the fridge, and it is naturally yet pleasantly topped with fruits I have at that time.

On overnight oats, I add whey protein powder, fruits, additional soy yogurt, oligosaccharide, cacao nibs, flaxseed oil, and cinnamon powder sometimes. 

I enjoy each day's oatmeal over a cup of coffee, a nice cup of STARBUCKS CAFFE VERONA, which we can get easily at the supermarket nowadays. Making coffee in the morning is my routine.

Healthy and delicious❤︎  It's convenient that I can prepare breakfast in a short time each morning. 

I think I'll do without cacao nibs and protein powder when I use them up because I feel I don't need anything special to be healthy and I can live simply with something I have. 

I had curry and rice for a change☆  Have you ever heard it's good to eat curry in the morning? Surely curry is also good! Well, the rice contains grains like millet, black rice, barley and all that. 

What is your comfy breakfast? I'm wishing you happy moments before the busy day starts.

additional photos of Birmingham as I feel & my secret tranquil spot

Walking further alongside Meguro River, I visit this place again, oh yeah, it is Birmingham of Michigan...as I feel!

One of the happiest things about moving into a new place was that there is an area that reminds me of somewhere in Michigan. I really appreciate the coincidence since the reason I decided buying a present home was that I liked the design of its renovated rooms and I hadn't known about the surrounding environment.

This is my favorite secret spot. It is like a hidden quiet paradise for me. I found this spot at my first exploring, but later I forgot how to reach here. I walked around and around in circles and finally, I could come here again!

I can sit in the shade of trees or large buildings. I have an idea, before long, how about a lunch here getting a drink & food at foodium (nearby in-store shopping) ?  I saw people having their foods in their own relaxed way here. I'd like to bring my friend to my favorite spot sometime. 

This oval stones could be a landmark. :)

A stylish apartment in the vicinity caught my eyes. I like that there are doorsteps even on the first floor, which style is not seen very much in Japan, it is like atmospheric apartments I've seen in American movies.

Flowers & plants are pretty outside the front door.

The fusion of the city and nature is wonderful.

Spectacular!

Many thanks for seeing my photos. Stay who you are whatever happens. Please take care of yourself and have a beautiful day! 

With Love and Prayers, Rose
