The beer pub "umbrella" in Sonezaki, Kita Ward, Osaka, will open on Saturday, March 28 at 6:00 p.m. An Instagram post revealed the tap list for the day.

Lineup for the Day


- Charm / Nara Brewing (Nara) Hazy IPA
- Shishigami Oni IPA / Oni Densetsu Beer (Hokkaido) IPA
- Mugicha Bitter / Minoh Beer (Osaka) English Bitter
- Draught Guinness (Ireland) Draught Guinness
- Kirin Lager / Kirin Beer (JP) Lager

The lineup, which pairs a hop-forward Hazy IPA and IPA with an English Bitter whose malt character stands out clearly, plus Draught Guinness and Kirin Lager, is well suited to a night spent slowly working through a few glasses. The basement beer-pub setting also helps shut out the outside world, letting you savor each drink one by one, which feels very much like umbrella.

The post also introduces a good-value beer ticket. It covers six small pours of various craft beers, and also applies to Guinness pints, with a price of 5,800 yen. It is valid for six months from the date of purchase and will end once sold out. If you want to build an evening in Osaka from your first drink to your last, it is worth checking in time for the 6:00 p.m. opening.
