CRAFT BEER BASE BUD updates 10 taps, including Kyoto Brewing's "The Disappeared Blanket"
CRAFT BEER BASE BUD, the beer pub in Umeda, Osaka, has published its tap list for April 9. Ten beers line up, including Kyoto Brewing's new "The Disappeared Blanket" and a NOMCRAFT collaboration, offering a wide range from pale ales to lambic-style beers and lagers.
Hop BroUmeda's 10-tap update is here, and CRAFT BEER BASE BUD has rolled out its April 9 lineup. Being able to compare beers in the underground arcade after work is a pretty strong move.
MugiWhoa, ten beers on tap!? With that many, I'd probably get lost choosing the first one!
Hop BroAnd with two new kegs tapped, Kyoto Brewing's The Disappeared Blanket is a Brett IPA. The fun part is how the hop aroma picks up a slightly wild nuance.
MugiBrett? What even is that? 'Wild nuance' sounds way too stylish all of a sudden. I thought it was about a blanket disappearing into the air, but it's completely different!
Hop BroBrett is a type of yeast that can add a bit of acidity and complexity. When that pairs with the aroma design of an IPA, it gives you depth beyond simple bitterness.
MugiI see, so they're building the aroma into it too! Then NOMCRAFT's Moonbow Sheep has me curious too - sansho and coriander sounds like something that's going to be seriously addictive!
Hop BroExactly, it's a spice-scented IPA, and it has layers of aroma beyond just hops. There are also beers like Gentle Lion and leaf, so the range is broad right from the start.
MugiBut sour, dark, alt, and all the rest? The world suddenly feels like a total style traffic jam. Where am I even supposed to start?!
Hop BroIf you're unsure, start with a sour like Bellwoods' JELLY KING to reset your palate, check the bitterness with Georgetown's Black Gates, and then move on to the lager styles for a clean flow. If you slot in a kölsch or altbier along the way, the differences become really clear.
MugiThat's the ideal tasting route! And near Umeda Station, on B2, you can duck in whether it's raining or just your mood. Sounds perfect.
Hop BroFinish with Flora Fermentation's Czech Style Pale Lager and you land the experience cleanly. All right, tonight's shaping up to be a night where at CRAFT BEER BASE BUD you'll want not just one beer, but two or three.
MugiNo way, I want a drink right now! I'm starting with Moonbow Sheep today, and ending quietly with a lager!
The beer pub CRAFT BEER BASE BUD, located on B2 of Osaka Ekimae Building No. 1 near Osaka Station in Osaka, has published its tap list for Friday, April 9. Hours are 4:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m., with the last beer order at 10:00 p.m. In the underground shopping area of Umeda, it's an easy stop after work, and the lineup makes it possible to sample a broad range of styles in small pours.
There were two new kegs tapped that day. One is Kyoto Brewing's "The Disappeared Blanket," a Brett IPA with a playful twist. The other is NOMCRAFT's "Moonbow Sheep," an IPA made with sansho pepper and coriander. Both are lined up as beers to enjoy not only for their familiar hop character, but also for the way their aromas are designed.
There are also beers with distinct personalities on tap.
- CRAFT BEER BASE × Matt Brynildson "Gentle Lion": Modern American Pale Ale
- CRAFT BEER BASE "leaf": CRAFT BEER BASE
- Bellwoods "JELLY KING": Dry Hopped Sour Ale
- Georgetown "Black Gates": Cascadian Dark Ale
- Swanlake, Yamamorido, Heiwacraft, KaruizawaQ "Album": Düsseldorf Style Altbier
- Y.Market "12 Da Capo": Köln Style Kölsch
- Sante Adairius Rustic Ales "Summer Sapling": Hoppy Belgian Blonde
- Flora Fermentation "Golem": Czech Style Pale Lager
In addition to hop-forward pale ales and IPAs, the list also includes sour ales, dark ales, altbier, kölsch, Belgian blonde, and Czech-style pale lager, making for a lineup that can shift the impression from the first glass to the last. In particular, if you slip in labels with lager character like "Golem," or beers with sharper bitterness or acidity like "JELLY KING" and "Black Gates," the breadth of today's taps becomes easier to see.
CRAFT BEER BASE BUD is an easy place to choose beer calmly around Umeda Station. Its location on B2 also makes it easy to drop in without worrying about the weather. This lineup, which includes two new kegs, is well suited for anyone who wants to compare different styles side by side.
