More Reasons to Come to the Tokyo Beer and Blog Kick-Off

Things are set for the Tokyo Beer and Blog Kick-Off on March 25th. A few notes of interest:

Hobgoblin Shibuya will provide happy hour prices all night for Beer and Blog, and snacks yet to be determined.

Also, Serkan Toto is now Co-Organizer of Tokyo Beer and Blog. Serkan is an active part of Tokyo’s tech community, and blogs on Tokyotronic, AsiaJin, TechCrunch, and CrunchGear, among others.

Welcome, Serkan, and thanks for the help!

Join the Facebook group and tell us if you’ll attend the Kick-Off. Also follow us on Twitter.

Found Location, Choosing Dates

Sorry for the silence, but I’ve been pounding the streets looking for the right place to launch Beer and Blog Tokyo. One of the choices I’d been pursuing went out of business, while the other is amenable to us setting up our event there.

Hobgoblin in Shibuya is a British pub very close to Shibuya station’s famous Hachiko exit. The Japanese site is here. Staff are friendly and speak English and Japanese. We’ve got wifi and good mobile and eMobile reception. Good choice of food as well as imported beers, wines, ciders, and hard alcohol. They take cash and cards.

Wednesday is the agreed-upon night, when the place isn’t too packed and there’s no game on TV, so let’s give that a shot and see how it goes. This Wednesday is too soon, next Wednesday is perilously close to St. Patrick’s Day, and so I think March 25, at 7pm is our official Kick-Off. Let me know if that works!

You can follow me on Twitter and shoot questions and suggestions to me or in the comments here at Beer and Blog.

Coming Soon to a Tokyo Bar Near You…

Welcome to Beer and Blog Tokyo. We’re just working on locking down a venue, date and time for our inaugural launch. If you have suggestions, I’m open to hearing them.

Expect participation by some of Tokyo’s most notable bloggers including Serkan Toto of Techcrunch, Akky Akimoto of Asiajin and Cybozu Labs and Danny Choo who is a force unto himself.

Looking forward to raising a pint or two soon!
