Osaka’s umbrella RiB opens 12 taps led by Hino Brewing
On June 18, umbrella RiB in Osaka’s Togano-cho opened from 5:00 p.m. to midnight with a 12-beer draft lineup centered on Hino Brewing, plus Other Half’s DDH Hazy IPA and a collaboration with Nagahama Roman Beer. Mobile ordering also began that day.
Hop BroOsaka has a seriously good one today: 12 taps at umbrella RiB. On June 18, they’re open from 5:00 PM to midnight, and it’s a full tasting night built around HINO BREWING.
MugiWhat! Twelve draft beers? That’s basically a beer amusement park! And they’re adding mobile ordering that same day too?
Hop BroThat part is smart. Mobile ordering starts so you can go at your own pace, but they still take direct orders too, which keeps it easy for both regulars and first-timers.
MugiNice! But when you say HINO BREWING focus, I still can’t picture the lineup. My brain is just foam right now.
Hop BroIt’s got range. Wild Honey is a Honey Ale with gentle sweetness, Gamou Helles is crisp and clean, and YareYare Ale is an easy-drinking American Pale Ale, so it’s a great entry point.
MugiHold on, DDH Hazy IPA and sakura cask conditioning? Why did this suddenly turn into wizard language?!
Hop BroIt sounds fancy, but just think extra-loaded hop aroma. Other Half’s Big Nectaron Vibes is a hazy IPA packed with layered hop character, and that sakura cask-conditioned Vienna lager is more about depth and barrel-like complexity.
MugiNo way, Heisei Banana and Hino Berry Ale sound like dessert already! But if there’s porter too, this lineup is covering way too much ground.
Hop BroExactly, that’s HINO BREWING’s strength. Shishimai Porter brings the dark, rich side, Premium Ale hits hard at 10%, and from Don’t Yare IPA to Zutto Yare IPA, they’ve got playful energy too.
MugiAnd it’s in Toganocho with perfect after-work hours, so it’s easy to stop by. Then there’s the 10th anniversary party on July 11 and 12, and now even my future schedule is thirsty.
Hop BroIf I were building the flight, I’d say start with Gamou Helles, then jump to Other Half or the collab tap. A tap list that lets you plan the drinking order this well is seriously solid.
MugiThat settles it, I’m ready for a practice cheers session right now! Honey, fruit, hazy, dark beer... yeah, this is absolutely a go-drink-it situation.
umbrella RiB, a craft beer pub in Osaka’s Kita Ward, opened on June 18, 2026 from 5:00 p.m. to midnight with a fresh tap lineup and a new mobile ordering system. Guests can still order directly at the bar, but the new setup gives drinkers another way to work through the list at their own pace.
The day’s draft selection is built around Hino Brewing from Shiga, with 12 beers covering a wide range of styles. The board moves from honey ale and Helles lager to hazy IPA, fruit beers, porter, and a barrel-conditioned Vienna lager collaboration.

Located at 9-23 Togano-cho, Kita-ku, Osaka, in the Juraq Building, the pub serves as a convenient stop in the Umeda area. Weekdays run from 5:00 p.m. to midnight, while weekends and holidays start at 3:00 p.m. For beer drinkers, the appeal is straightforward: a broad Hino Brewing showcase, a guest tap from Other Half, and a collaboration pour that adds a local Shiga connection to the list. The venue is also planning a 10th anniversary party on July 11 and 12, which suggests more to come beyond this single tap update.
