At CRAFT BEER HOUSE molto!! Umeda, Inkhorn Brewing's "Bulbul" has appeared. It is a fruity, full-bodied beer with a smooth finish, layering a sweet-tart character reminiscent of raspberries and cassis with notes of chocolate and vanilla.
Hop BroThe Bulbul tap opening has arrived in Umeda. Inkhorn Brewing's guest beer is now available at CRAFT BEER HOUSE molto!! Umeda, and it's a beer where sweet-tart notes like raspberry and cassis are layered with chocolate and vanilla richness.
MugiWhoa! Raspberry and cassis with chocolate and vanilla? That already sounds like dessert before even drinking it!
Hop BroExactly. What makes it great is the balance of acidity and richness. It's not the kind of beer you chug in a rush; it's more interesting when you slow down and follow the aroma.
MugiHuh, so it's best from the second beer onward? Why not make it the first one?
Hop BroThe thing is, your palate is usually too lively with that first beer, so Bulbul really shines when you take your time with it. To catch the fruitiness and richness, you want a little room to relax into it.
MugiI get it! Then if you drink it with the night view, it should look pretty amazing, right?
Hop BroExactly. muito!! on the 31st floor of Hankyu Grand Building has a great Umeda night view. Since they also line up craft beers from all over Japan, it's a perfect place to compare them and check out each beer's personality.
MugiAnd they even have Italian food and meat dishes, so they've thought about the pairing with meals too. That's almost unfair!
Hop BroYeah, for smoked dishes and the savory depth of meat, this kind of rich, fruity beer really works. The roundness from the chocolate and vanilla helps balance out saltiness and fat.
MugiNow I really want to drink it! If Bulbul were waiting as the finishing beer, I'd never make it home!
Hop BroThat would definitely be the kind of beer that keeps you there. Tonight, let's head to Umeda and take our time with Bulbul while enjoying the view.
