CRAFT BEER BASE leaf rotates 15 taps, including Totopia's "Boxphobia" on tap
The beer pub CRAFT BEER BASE leaf in Osaka's Grand Green Osaka released its tap list for April 4. In addition to 10 house originals, five guest beers from Yokohama Bay Brewing, Yatsugatake Touchdown, Totopia, Garyu Brewing, and Daisen G Beer are on the lineup.
Hop BroThe beer pub CRAFT BEER BASE leaf in Grand Green Osaka has released its tap list for April 4. Ten originals plus five guest beers, for a total of 15 taps already makes it sound fun.
MugiWhoa, 15 taps updated!? With that many on the board, I'd freeze up trying to decide what to start with.
Hop BroWhat’s nice is how wide the originals are. From leaf with sage and lemongrass, to the pale-leaning BLONDE, to LAVENDER & CHAMOMILE with lavender and chamomile, the aroma design is really carefully done.
MugiLavender and chamomile? That sounds more like herbal tea than beer!? But I bet it smells really nice when you drink it.
Hop BroAnd they also have Ikeda Mikan Wit made with Ikeda mandarin oranges, plus names like MIX JUICY 012 and Hop Scheme057 Nectarine, which make me think the hop character must be interesting.
MugiWhat is that, it sounds tasty just from the names! But what does hop character even mean?
Hop BroRoughly speaking, it means the bitterness and aroma come through clearly instead of feeling blurred. For example, Totopia's West Coast DIPA "Boxphobia" leans toward a crisp profile, making it easy to enjoy sharp bitterness and strong hop character.
MugiOhhh! So if Yokohama Bay Brewing's German style Pilsner and Yatsugatake Touchdown's Dunkel are on the list too, the range of flavors is huge.
Hop BroExactly. Garyu Brewing's "Nagahama Kiwi IPA" is a DDH Hazy DIPA with Kiwi, so you get fruitiness too, and Daisen G Beer's "Imperial Stout 2023" takes you all the way to the calm depth of dark beer. It's ideal for comparing styles in one place.
MugiWow, having even the calm depth of dark beer is amazing...! This is definitely the kind of place you'd want to go with friends and sample a little of everything in order.
Hop BroIt's open from 11:00 to 23:00, with last order at 22:00 for both food and drinks, so it's easy to stop by. Just keep in mind the private booking on Sunday, 4/5, from 12:00 to 16:00, and let's make tonight a night of style-by-style drinking.
MugiAgreed! I want to start with sage and lemongrass first, and finish on a mellow note with the Imperial Stout~.
The beer pub CRAFT BEER BASE leaf, on the 2nd floor of the Shops & Restaurants North Building at Grand Green Osaka in Osaka, has unveiled its on-tap lineup for April 4. Hours are 11:00-23:00, and last order for both food and drinks is 22:00.
The day's lineup consists of 10 house originals and five guest beers, for a total of 15 taps. Among the originals are "leaf," which combines sage and lemongrass; the pale-leaning "BLONDE"; "LAVENDER & CHAMOMILE," made with lavender and chamomile; "Ikeda Mikan Wit," made with Ikeda mandarin oranges; and "MIX JUICY 012" and "Hop Scheme057 Nectarine," which seem poised to showcase bright hop character, along with "Belgian IPA," "Red Ale," and "Robust Porter," offering everything from light, easy-drinking options to roasty pours.
The guest lineup is also worth noting. Yokohama Bay Brewing's "Beer Terrace" is a German style Pilsner, while Yatsugatake Touchdown's "Dunkel" is, as the name suggests, a Dunkel. For hop lovers, Totopia's "Boxphobia" stands out as a West Coast DIPA, while Garyu Brewing's "Nagahama Kiwi IPA" is a DDH Hazy DIPA with Kiwi. To finish, Daisen G Beer also has its "Imperial Stout 2023" on the list.
It's a lineup that lets you follow crisp bitterness, fruitiness, aromatic expression, and the calm depth of dark beer all in one go, making it a perfect choice for a day when you want to drink through different styles at a single spot. The post also notes a private booking scheduled for Sunday, 4/5, from 12:00 to 16:00.
