Craft Beer Spot Hathor in Kyobashi, Osaka, has released its tap list for May 13. The new tap is Minoh Beer's "Papa Zaru Lager," and the lineup spans everything from lagers to IPAs and stouts.
Hop BroToday's topic is Craft Beer Spot Hathor in Kyobashi, Osaka. On the May 13 taps, Minoh Beer's Papa Zaru Lager is newly tapped.
MugiWhoa, "Papa Zaru Lager" already sounds intense! What does it taste like?
Hop BroIt's a lager with a biscuit-like toasted aroma and a subtle sweetness from the grain. It has an elegant noble hop character, with ABV 5.0% and IBU 28, making it a calm, easygoing beer.
MugiHey, what's IBU 28? The numbers are making this feel like science class all of a sudden!
Hop BroIn simple terms, it's a measure of bitterness. At 28, it's not aggressively bitter, but nicely crisp. It's the kind of beer you can sip smoothly, just like a lager should be.
MugiNice! And the bar has a full-blown 16-tap traffic jam? I'm curious what they have on offer!
Hop BroExactly. For lagers, they have Yebisu, Trillium's Pilsner, and Isekadoya Beer’s Memory Bouquet. In the ale section, even Iwate Kura Beer’s Red Ale Real Ale ver. is on tap, so the lineup is pretty broad.
MugiWait, what's a real ale? That suddenly sounds very British gentleman!
Hop BroIt's a style that you enjoy for its soft mouthfeel, having naturally settled in the cask. Today they also have Minamichita Blood Orange IPA, Disco Ninja IPA, and Sansho W-IPA, so the flow from lager into IPA is nicely set up.
MugiPerfect! Then I'll start with Papa Zaru Lager for a toast and pair it with some smoked snacks!
Hop BroThat sounds great. It pairs perfectly with smoked snacks, and if you go as far as Trillium's Pilsner or Disco Ninja IPA, it'll be complete.
