Craft Beer Cafe & Bar Synchronicity

Synchronicity is a craft beer and cocktail bar in Yokohama with a dozen beers on tap—all of them Japanese. It’s a classic Japanese-style bar, with 14 seats and no separate smoking area. Evidently the owner is a fan of The Police, as the music choices and wall decorations consisted almost entirely of Sting and The Police material.

Beer is served in three different sizes: small (280 ml), medium (360 ml) and large (568 ml). The large size is of course a British pint. Prices for each run from ¥650 to ¥800 for small, ¥800 to ¥1,050 for medium, and ¥1,200 to ¥1,400 for a pint.

Brewers on tap at the time of our visit included a variety of Japanese makers, including North Island, Aoi Brewing, Kakegawa Farm Brewing, Kyoto Brewing, Numazu Craft, Hop Kotan Brewing, Marca, and Shiga Kogen.
