Beer in Japan - Tokyo's Best Craft Beer Bars

Visiting Tokyo, love beer, and hate roaming charges? Then BIJ's iPhone app was designed for you. It gives offline access - no WIFI or 3G required - to Beer in Japan's selection of Tokyo's top craft beer bars, including offline maps and directions.

Travelling further than Tokyo? The app includes direct links to the Beer in Japan's iPhone-optimised website for listings across Japan - including Yokohama, Osaka, Okinawa, Sapporo, Kobe, Kyoto, Nagoya, Hiroshima, and more - plus features on Japanese breweries. The app also links to Beer in Japan's twitter feed and newsletter subscription for easy access. WIFI or 3G is required for the online access.

Why are the full range of bars not available offline in the app? I'm considering it, but it would be a huge undertaking. Most visitors to Japan go through Tokyo and this app ensures that in Tokyo at least, you have access to good bars in your iPhone without data roaming. You can encourage further development by leaving a good rating for this app!

Note: This is a guide to craft beer bars - bars which sell beers from small Japanese breweries and from international craft breweries. It is not a guide to bars which sell mainstream commercial beer.
