Brewpub Center Point Pours Six House Beers with New Beef Rice Dish
Brewpub Center Point in Osaka’s Nakazaki-cho has announced a six-beer tap list alongside its new Center Point Beef Rice. The lineup ranges from an American pale ale and IPA to a robust porter, white ale, bière de garde, and weizen bock.
Hop BroIn Nakazakicho, Osaka, Brewpub Center Point pairs six house beers with hearty beef dishes.
MugiWhoa, six house-brewed beers? I’m happily lost before I’ve even ordered!
Hop BroStart with Shuchinikurin Pale Ale, an American Pale Ale with hop aroma and a pleasantly firm bitterness for meat.
MugiThat name is wildly dramatic! But what exactly is hop bitterness?
Hop BroHops are flowers that give beer aroma and bitterness—sometimes citrusy or herbal. Think of them as a reset for rich meat between bites.
MugiSo they’re the cleanup crew for a beef party in my mouth! Is the Robust Porter much richer, then?
Hop BroExactly. Its roasted malt character can suggest coffee or cacao, so this roasty dark beer loves the charred notes of beef.
MugiCoffee and cacao notes in beer?! Then is Somewhat White the refreshing member of the crew?
Hop BroYep, it’s a White Ale with an easygoing profile. There’s also the IPA Ordinary Days, Bière de Garde Avant de Garde, and Weizenbock Mont Bock—a wide range of styles.
MugiBière de Garde sounds like a magic spell! With these unfamiliar beer styles, I absolutely want a tasting flight.
Hop BroIt’s a French-origin style that often has a satisfying depth. And the new Center Point Beef Rice arrives in a sizzling skillet with beef, corn, scallions, buttered rice, and sauce to mix together.
MugiA hot skillet and buttered rice?! I can hear the beer calling already. I want to match the beefy buttery richness with bitterness and roast!
Hop BroBeer starts at 800 yen for 500 ml, and takeaway is available. Let’s spend the weekend with draft beer and beef at Center Point—I’m ready for a pint.
MugiMe too! Pale Ale first, then Porter… I’ve already chosen my beer tasting order!
Brewpub Center Point, a brewpub in Ukita, Osaka, has introduced its current six-beer tap lineup and a new food offering.
The beers include Jushikurinikku Pale Ale, a flagship American pale ale; Robust Porter; Ordinary Days, an American IPA; Somewhat White, a white ale; Avant de Garde, a bière de garde; and Mont Bock, a weizen bock. The selection covers a broad range of styles, from hop-forward pale ale and IPA to darker, roast-driven porter and malt-focused traditional styles.
The featured food item is Center Point Beef Rice. Beef is placed over rice in a hot skillet, then topped with corn, green onion, and butter. Sauce is poured over the dish at the table, and guests are encouraged to mix everything together while it is still sizzling. The rich beef and buttery flavors should pair naturally with the bitterness, roast, and carbonation of the house beers.
Located in Osaka’s Kita Ward, Brewpub Center Point combines an on-site brewery with Texas-style barbecue. The venue also offers beer and meat for takeaway. According to the announcement, 500 ml beer servings start at ¥800, while meat starts at ¥1,400 for a quarter pound. It is a practical stop for a fresh pint, a food pairing, or a house-beer takeaway.
