Hop BroCRAFT Rainbow in Nodayacho, Kita Ward, Okayama City has put together today's taps in a really satisfying way. It centers on domestic craft beer, and just looking at the lineup makes you want to start comparing pours.
MugiWow! Five domestic craft beers already gets me excited, and it even has draft beer too? Isn't that a little too generous!
Hop BroWhat makes it especially interesting is the spread: Fruitsale, IPA from Tokushima and Mie, Kolsch from Shizuoka, and Pilsner marked as Japan. Just the regional lineup alone makes it feel like you're traveling.
MugiI see! But what exactly is Kolsch again? I know the name, but the taste is still kind of fuzzy to me...!
Hop BroKolsch, roughly speaking, is a beer that originated in Germany and is top-fermented but drinks a bit like a lager, so it's a clean, elegant style. That's why if you sip it after enjoying the hops in an IPA, it resets your palate and makes the next beer even more appealing.
MugiThat sounds amazing! And when you have something like blood orange in the mix, it instantly feels brighter and looks great in photos, right?
Hop BroExactly. Having beers where the name stands out, like Johana Beer's Blood Orange, Ise Kadoya Beer's NIKUKYU IPA, and Hansharo Beer's NewWorldKolsch, gives you a starting point for tasting comparisons. From there, it's fun to explore what you like best.
MugiNIKUKYU IPA is already an unfairly good name! There are definitely beers you want to pick just because of the name!
Hop BroAnd what's thoughtful is that they finish with Suntory Draft too, so after going hard on the craft beers, there's still an easy way back to a familiar classic. A lineup like this really shows the depth of the place.
MugiThe shop is non-smoking and安心 too, and the hours are easy to remember: Friday through Monday from 15:00-24:00, and Tuesday through Thursday from 17:00-24:00. Checking the business status before going is important...!
Hop BroThere's also a notice that it's closed from June 9 to June 17, so that's definitely something to check. If you want to enjoy domestic craft beer in Okayama, this is definitely one tap-visible shop worth keeping on your list.
MugiJust reading this makes my throat feel dry...! I want to have one right now, and today both me and Hop-bro should toast with beer!
