CraftBeerSpot Hathor pours Super Dry and Shiga Kogen No.10 on August 14
CraftBeerSpot Hathor, a beer pub in Osaka's Kyobashi area, updated its draft list for August 14. The opening pour is Asahi Super Dry, while the recommended beers include Shiga Kogen's No.10 and Firestone Walker's blueberry-led Primal Elements blend.
Hop BroKyobashi’s Craft Beer Spot Hathor just dropped its August 14 tap list, and it’s a strong one. The opening keg is Asahi Super Dry, a classic lager, and the featured picks already include Shiga Kogen Beer’s Sono Ju.
MugiWait, Super Dry on draft and a Shiga Kogen IPA on the same list? That lineup has range. These taps are playing two sports at once!
Hop BroAnd Hathor runs a 16-tap lineup with house-smoked snacks, which is dangerous in the best way. Lager, ale, fruit beer, IPA, black beer, it’s all there.
MugiWhoa, but Sono Ju as a name sounds less like a beer and more like a finishing move. Do I drink it and suddenly start speaking fluent hop?
Hop BroSono Ju is a 10th anniversary IPA from Shiga Kogen Beer. It’s 7.5% ABV and IBU 75, but the sake-rice character keeps it lighter on its feet than the numbers suggest.
MugiHold on, IBU 75 means what exactly? If that were a test score I’d clap, but in beer terms am I getting chased by bitterness?
Hop BroIBU is a bitterness gauge. Higher usually means more perceived bitterness, but this one stays surprisingly drinkable because the sake rice helps it feel crisp and light.
MugiOkay, then what about Firestone Walker’s Primal Elements, the Blueberry and Marionberry one? The name already sounds like dessert, and then you add wild saison and Flanders red and my brain clocks out.
Hop BroThat beer is all about the art of blending. It layers a wild-yeast saison, a marionberry Flanders red, and lager, then adds more fruit to build a fruit beer with acidity and depth, not just sweetness.
MugiWow, that is a serious drinking day in Kyobashi. Going from lager to IPA to fruit beer to black beer feels like the tap-list version of an all-you-can-eat feast.
Hop BroExactly. Start with Super Dry, hit Sono Ju, detour through the plum gose, then land with Kurikuro at the end. Add the smoked snacks and I’m already building the order in my head.
MugiThat plan is approved. Take me to Hathor right now, because this article turned my throat and stomach into a full craft-beer emergency!
