Hoppy Street

ホッピー通り

🍜 EAT

A short food street in Asakusa named for hoppy — a post-war beer-flavored soda mixer invented when beer was taxed beyond reach. Locals drink it mixed with cheap shochu at outdoor stalls. Peak-Showa atmosphere, day-drinking is genuinely the culture here, especially on weekends.
