Hop BroThe beer pub umbrella in Sonezaki, Osaka, is opening on May 28. A place in a basement where you can take your time comparing draft beers already sounds exciting, doesn't it?
MugiWhoa, a basement! It feels like a secret hideout! And a lineup of five draft beers right from the start sounds like they're really coming out swinging.
Hop BroThe highlight for the day is Kiwi IPA from Two Rabbits Brewing. IPA is all about hop aroma and bitterness, and once you add the name Kiwi, it's the kind of beer that makes you grin just imagining the aroma.
MugiKiwi as in the fruit? But with IPA, I already picture something that's bitter but fragrant! Adding a kiwi vibe on top makes me curious!
Hop BroExactly. And they also have Kozaru IPA from Osaka's own Minoh Beer, plus Ichigoichie, a collaboration between Igre Brewery in Hyogo and umbrella. When beers with different regional personalities are lined up like that, the fun of tasting side by side really jumps up.
MugiWow, even the names sound fun! Ichigoichie is definitely the kind of name that becomes a conversation starter. Strawberry, but beer? My brain can't keep up!
Hop BroOn top of that, there's draft Guinness and Kirin Lager, so the lineup is neatly rounded out from dark beer to lager. It's a smart setup, because you can choose something calm and balanced as well, not just an all-out hop bomb.
MugiSo it's not just about strong bitterness! And they even have bitter melon namul, which makes the snacks feel light too. It doesn't seem like it would get in the way of the beer!
Hop BroAnd the beer tickets are priced at 5,800 yen for six drinks, so it's perfect for people who want to try a little of everything. The fact that Guinness pints are also covered shows they really understand what drinkers want.
MugiIt's great that you can drop in for one drink after work or enjoy it like a bar crawl. I think I'm already adding this to my list of possible drinks for tonight.
Hop BroThen it's settled. Let's work our way from the Two Rabbits IPA to the Guinness, and finish with a cheers through a tasting lineup.
The beer pub umbrella in Sonezaki, Kita Ward, Osaka, announced in a post that it will open at 6 p.m. on May 28. True to the atmosphere of a basement-level venue, it offers a setup centered on tasting draft beers side by side, and that day's lineup ranges from domestic craft beers to a standard lager and Guinness.

- ★ Ichigoichie / Igre Brewery (Hyogo) x umbrella (Osaka)
- Kozaru IPA / Minoh Beer (Osaka)
- Draft Guinness / Guinness
- Kirin Lager / Kirin Brewery
The IPA selection includes Two Rabbits Brewing from Shiga and local Osaka brewery Minoh Beer, and the collaboration beer with Hyogo's Igre Brewery, "Ichigoichie," also makes an appearance. In addition, draft Guinness and Kirin Lager round out the lineup, creating a selection that ranges widely from hop-forward pours to dark beer and classic lager.
On the food side, "bitter melon namul" is also introduced, making it easy to pair the beers with light snacks. The post also says beer tickets covering six of the smallest craft beer sizes are on sale for 5,800 yen, and that Guinness pints are also available. It is the kind of opening notice that works well whether you're stopping by for a single drink after work or sampling several brands a little at a time.
