Hop BroAt ALE HOUSE Kamiya in Higashi-Umeda, Uikotten Brewing's excursions has just been tapped. It's an Irish red nitro real ale, made for a smooth, easy-drinking experience.
MugiWhoa, an Irish red? So it's a red beer!? It already sounds delicious just from the color!
Hop BroExactly. It's a copper-red color, with the malt's toasty richness front and center. And since this one is on nitro, it has a soft mouthfeel that goes down smoothly.
MugiNitro? What is that? I'm already getting my head full of beer foam over whether the carbonation is strong or weak!
Hop BroPut simply, using nitrogen makes the foam finer and denser. That gives it a creamy mouthfeel and really brings out the real ale character.
MugiOhhh! So it's not the kind you chug, but the kind you take your time with and savor. Just hearing malt sweetness makes my stomach growl!
Hop BroExactly. Even the shop's description emphasizes that balance of toasty richness, sweetness, and restrained bitterness. It's an easy-drinking glass, but it still has real depth.
MugiThat's the best! Easy for beginners to get into, and something regulars can smile at too. And Kamiya is strong because you can enjoy it with food too!
Hop BroThat's right. The B1F is open until late, and the 3F is available until 11:30 p.m., so it's easy to stop by after work or for a late meal. You could also pair it with Kamiya-style fried chicken while watching sports broadcasts.
MugiWow, spending a night like that in Higashi-Umeda sounds great. At this point, the only thing to do is go check the keg status.
ALE HOUSE Kamiya, located on the basement floor in Doyama-cho, Osaka, has added a new guest beer. This latest tap is excursions / Uikotten Brewing. It is said to be a nitro real ale version of an Irish red, and the first of its kind at Kamiya.
What the shop highlights about this beer is its fragrant malt-driven richness and sweetness, along with its easy-drinking profile thanks to modest bitterness and alcohol content. Rather than a beer that comes at you with a strong impact, it seems like a calm glass that lets you follow the layers of flavor slowly as you hold it. Its soft mouthfeel, true to real ale style, is also likely to catch the attention of beer fans.
