Osaka’s torne_craftbeer opens Wu-Chaw-Teng Brew’s nitro Irish Red, with Kyoto appearance on May 2 and 3
On May 1, Osaka’s Tenroku beer pub torne_craftbeer said in a post that today’s new tap opening is one keg. It also announced plans to set up at the Kyoto Fushimi event Kyoto After-Bath Craft Beer Festival 2026 on May 2 and 3.
Hop BroAt Osaka’s Tenroku torne_craftbeer, today there’s just one new keg on tap. And it’s Excursions nitro ver..
MugiWhoa! A nitro version sounds like the kind with huge foam, right? The name already sounds intense!
Hop BroExactly. It’s an Irish red from Wu-Chaw-Teng Brew. It has caramel-like and toasty malt notes, but the finish is crisp and clean.
MugiI get the malt part, but does toasty mean something like baked bread? Does beer suddenly turn into breakfast?
Hop BroPretty much. It gives off the impression of fragrant bread crust, and with nitro’s fine foam on top, it tends to feel smooth and elegant.
MugiNice! And there’s still the nitro stout from last night too, right? Today’s lineup is all red and black, with a completely mellow, late-night vibe!
Hop BroThe lineup is interesting too, with a mix of domestic and overseas beers. Helles The Circle., The Black Fog of Hamburg, BAWEIZEN., and Baka Lager. make for a setup where every beer has its own personality.
MugiWhat is this, a place where you could have a second round just by reading the names? Nico. and Yuzu Saison 2024. alone make me feel like I’m browsing a shop shelf!
Hop BroAnd the shop’s message is great too. Its stance is that it’s a place to savor music and conversation as well, so it lets you enjoy the whole atmosphere, not just the beer. That’s what makes torne_craftbeer feel like torne_craftbeer.
MugiI like that. Drinking at a place like that makes one glass feel like a reason to stay! Friday and Saturday until 2 a.m. is way too tempting for late night.
Hop BroOn top of that, they’ll be at the Kyoto After-Bath Craft Beer Festival 2026 on May 2 and 3. They’ll also have dashi-based food from Maruhachi Udon, so it’s the kind of place that makes you want to go in with the beer too.
MugiRed in Osaka, a festival in Kyoto, and dashi food too... this weekend is way too exciting! At this point, we just have to make plans to go drinking!
The beer pub torne_craftbeer in Sugaecho, Kita Ward, Osaka, in the Tenjinbashisuji 6-chome area, updated its business information and tap list in its latest post on May 1.
Today’s new tap opening is one keg, with Excursions nitro ver. making its debut. The post describes it as an Irish red ale from Wu-Chaw-Teng Brew (有頂天醸造), noting caramel and toasty malt character, while also explaining that it finishes dry and clean. A nitro stout opened the previous night is also on tap, making this a lineup suited to a calm night of taking your time with each glass.
Today’s taps feature a wide range of domestic and imported beers, including Helles The Circle., The Black Fog of Hamburg nitro ver., BAWEIZEN., Baka Lager., Nico., Interiority 2025 Coconut., Hyonotic Graffiti., Yuzu Saison 2024., Personal Plague., and Winter Lambiek. The mix brings together breweries such as Mojiko Retro Beer, Minoh Beer, Repubrew, Farmentry, Trap Door Brewing, Kyoto Brewing, and Oud Beersel, highlighting the distinct character of each maker.
The shop describes itself as a place not just to drink beer, but to savor music, conversation, and atmosphere as well, and its defining feature is that it centers craft beer while also offering food and sound. On May 2 and 3, it plans to open a booth at Kyoto After-Bath Craft Beer Festival 2026 in Fushimi, Kyoto, where it will also serve dashi-based food under the Maruhachi Udon name. Hours are Monday through Thursday from 5:00 p.m. to midnight, Friday and Saturday from 5:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m., and Sunday and holidays from 3:00 p.m. to midnight. Anyone wanting to follow both an Osaka pint and the weekend Kyoto booth should check the operating schedule in advance.
