The last St.Patrick's in the Dubliners?

Here's a link to Irish pubs in Japan, from the Irish Network in Japan website.

Only had time to do the Dubliners group of pubs right now.
Had a very buisy weekend. Also check out the Naka Meguro Taproom for their special stout week and Faulte for their great offer on Irish bottles (600yen!).

I thought it fitting to list the Dubliners with my limited time as they are connected to Saporro and those boys went and lost the contract to promote Guinness and Kilkenny this coming year (It's gone to Kirin).

Dubliner's Irish pubs in Tokyo:

Dubliner's Shinjuku: On 15th, Guinness & Kilkenny 900 yen till 7pm. On 17th all draught beer 500yen. 1st to 31st Jameson and Bailey's 500 a shot. Normal coupon for 800yen pint here.

Dubliner's Shibuya: On 15th, Guinness & Kilkenny 900 yen till 7pm. On 17th all draught beer 500yen. 1st to 31st Jameson and Bailey's 500 a shot. Normal coupon for 800yen pint here.

Dubliner's Shinagawa: On 15th, draught beer 700yen till 7pm. On 17th, all draught beer 500yen. 1st to 31st Jameson and Bailey's 500 a shot. Normal coupon for 800yen pint here.

Toranomon: Nothing special, it seems, but normal happy hour (3-7, Mon-Fri), 700yen pints.

Akasaka:Seems to be normal happy hour (3-7, I assume Mon-Fri), 800yen pints.

Ikebukero: Seems to be just normal happy hour (4-7, Mon-Fri), 700yen pints.

They have a special offer where if you collect a stamp (presumably on the hand or a card) from all 6 stores, you get a prize (perhaps you should get a bloody medal too!). Ask about their pub crawl offer. I would have assumed all 6 establishments would have 500yen pints for StPaddies. It seems not. Boo!

Will this be the last St.Patrick's in the Dubliners? I had good memories in Shinjuku one year of drinking their most expensive whiskies for just 500yen, with my friend Canadian Dave (until someone knocked his whisky all over his jacket and I left him arguing with the manager and the cops) and coming home another year with a pair of guinness glasses that had magically found their way intot my pockets from the Shibuya branch (I blame it on the Australian girls I was with - wonderfully bad influences!).
