Use just ONE coupon and you'll save more than the price of the app - and most coupons can be used on every visit, so you'll continue to save money. To use a coupon, just open the coupon in the app and show it to the bar when you order.
All listings include:
★ Information about the bar
★ Clear written detailed directions from the closest subway or train station
★ Opening hours
★ Info on whether free WIFI is provided (use WIFI for free in some bars)
★ Smoking or non-smoking
★ Website link and contact phone number
★ Twitter links where available
SMALL SCREEN SUPPORT: Beer in Japan was never designed for small 240x320 screen phones such as the X10 Mini Pro. To run on a smaller screen, images have been scaled down and a little bit more scrolling is required. It's not ideal, but at least you can use the app and coupons! Other phones are not affected (320x480+).
IMPORTANT: NO BARS have paid money to be included in this guide. This is not paid advertorial masquerading as a guide. I buy my own drinks at the bars I go to and I pay for my own travel across Japan. The decision of a bar to offer or not offer a discount coupon did not influence the inclusion of the bar in the application - all listings were written prior to approaching bars. Beer in Japan is not a business - it's a guide written by a craft beer lover in Japan who wants to spread the word about great beer in Japan.
The application does not include all bars listed on the Beer in Japan website - that would be impossible since most of the bars listed on the Beer in Japan website are simply links to the bars own websites, which wouldn't work offline. Instead, this application takes you to the best of Japan's craft beer bars.
If you live in Japan and have 3G access, you can use the Beer in Japan website free at http://beerinjapan.com/ - there's even a mobile optimised version of the website. The website has lots of links to other bars. This app keeps the best bars in your pocket.
