Nuttari Beer — Restaurant in Niigata

I don't usually write reviews unless I am really impressed with something or very dissatisfied. To tell you the truth, I have had a passion for craft beer for a long time and know quite a lot about different hops, malts, gravity etc. I ordered a stout which was flat and didn't seem to have as much alcohol in it as stated. The person I was with ordered an ale that really didn't taste like a beer at all. Possibly the beer was old, or the person serving it poured out the last bits of something, but quite frankly it was not drinkable. I heard that someone comes from Tokyo once in a while to brew the beer, but possibly they don't know how to make craft beer properly as it was undrinkable. Either the management needs to reassess their brewers ability to make quality craft beer, or to just serve...

Very comfortable place to drink, and great prices on local sake. A wide enough variety, and generous enough pours, that you can feel like you experimented, but not overwhelming like Ponshukan. The bartenders are extremely friendly and accommodating towards foreigners, this is definitely the place to stop in Niigata. I'd come again in a heartbeat. If you enjoy a hearty and laid-back drinking experience...

A converted Machiya beer pub in Nuttari area. With is nice interior and warm hearted mama it is a great place to visit. They offer 10+ craft beer and other beverages and light dishes to accompany the drinks. It is a bit out of the way from the Niigata station but it takes only 15 minutes and it well...
