Hop BroToday’s topic is CRAFT Rainbow’s tap list in Okayama. Their July 4 post lines up five draft options from Hiroshima, Mie, Shizuoka, and Nara, plus Suntory draft.
MugiWhat! Grapefruit Sour on tap? That already sounds like the champion of summer.
Hop BroThat one from Shimanami Brewery feels like tart-and-delicious refreshment. You get citrusy grapefruit character with sour acidity, so it sounds perfect for a first glass.
MugiThen what about Isekadoya Beer’s LushHopIPA? The name sounds like the hops are doing push-ups.
Hop BroIPA is basically a hop-forward style. Big aroma, noticeable bitterness, lots of character. And a name like “LushHop” really makes you expect a dense hop bouquet.
MugiNo way, hop-forward sounds like a talent show where barley got eliminated in round one!
Hop BroThat contrast is the fun part. With WCB’s “StarWatcher” and Fermentary’s “Gpepee” included too, it becomes a pick-by-your-mood lineup. Sour, hoppy, and fermentation-driven flavors are all there.
MugiHold on, fermentation-driven character suddenly sounds like science class. Are you still describing something tasty?
Hop BroIn simple terms, it means the yeast brings fruity notes, spicy hints, or a certain kind of acidity. Basically, the yeast personality shows up clearly in the beer.
MugiOhhh! And they also have sake and shochu, right? That makes it easy to go with friends without anyone getting stuck with nothing they want.
Hop BroExactly. CRAFT Rainbow is an Okayama Station-area beer pub in Nodayacho, so it’s easy to drop by. It’s non-smoking inside, has a smoking space, and opens at 3:00 p.m. from Friday to Monday.
MugiThat’s strong. You could swing by after work and do a mood-based tasting run from sour to IPA without overthinking it.
Hop BroStart with the Shimanami sour, move to the Isekadoya IPA, then decide between StarWatcher and Gpepee. That lineup makes me want a pint right now.
