The haunt for hop- and metalheads has moved

One of Yokohama’s craft-beer institutions, Thrash Zone (2-10-7 Tsuruyacho, Kanagawa-ku; www.beerdrinkinginternational.com) has shifted its location. Owner and self-confessed “hophead” Koichi Katsuki has moved his ever-rotating selection of local, regional and coastal US beer just a couple blocks away. The new ground-level venue has twice the space than the previous Thrash Zone, and the number of taps has grown from nine to twelve. Stop in for the same premium hand-pumped ale, smoke-free atmosphere, and heavy-metal thunder. Metalheads will not be disappointed with the décor.
