Hop BroThe Namba Sennichimae beer pub café&beer Aruka→Aruka has unveiled a nine-tap lineup centered on Osaka locals. It even includes a beer that bears the shop's name, so it's a pretty ambitious selection.
MugiWhat? Nine taps? That's the kind of lineup that's fun before you even choose!
Hop BroThe one to watch is definitely the 13 Red Ale. It's a collaboration between Aruka→Aruka and ONEs BREWERY, and as a session red IPA, it is designed to be easy-drinking with a light, breezy feel.
MugiA session red IPA? What's that? Does that mean it's light and easy to drink? It sounds strong, but is the inside gentle?
Hop BroExactly. Roughly speaking, it's designed to keep the alcohol lower so you can probably have several. It adds a citrusy hop aroma to the toasty character of a red ale, so it goes down smoothly but still has real flavor presence.
MugiOhh! Then I'm curious about the Ikeda mikan wit too! A beer with mandarin oranges sounds like it can only be delicious!
Hop BroGood eye. CRAFT BEER BASE's Ikeda Mikan Wit is a Belgian-style witbier, with the soft wheat character layered with the bright aroma of mikan. There are also sake ale and sake lager, so the lineup has a strong playful streak with Japanese ingredients.
MugiSake ale and sake lager!? That's way too free-form! Now I can't tell whether this is an izakaya or a laboratory!
Hop BroThat's what makes it interesting. Minoh Beer's Osaru IPA, MARCA BREWING's black IPA, Minoh's STOUT, plus PUNK IPA and Heartland are all on tap, so local-first picks and reliable classics coexist.
MugiWow, IPA fans are covered too, and finishing with STOUT or Heartland is perfect! I'm in the mood to go all in on hop aroma today!
Hop BroWhen a lineup like this comes together in Namba, just looking at the taps feels like you've already had a drink. If you work through all nine local-style beers, you might end up tasting the shop's personality itself.
MugiI can't take it anymore, I want to drink right now! At Aruka→Aruka, I want to start with 13 Red Ale and finish quietly with STOUT!
