Hop BroAt YELLOW APE CRAFT in Imahashi, Osaka, five taps have opened. Yebisu, Amakusa Shiranui Weizen, and Mikan Gose are all on the board, and the early-summer lineup is looking really good.
MugiWait, all five at once!? With that many, I’d be happily lost before I even decide what to drink first!
Hop BroThe first one to watch is probably Amakusa Shiranui Weizen / Mojiko Beer. Weizen uses wheat malt, so it’s a style with a soft mouthfeel, and it can sometimes have banana-like aromas.
MugiWhat! Banana-like aromas? So it turns out that way even without adding fruit? Beer suddenly sounds like a science experiment!
Hop BroThat’s what makes it interesting. The way yeast changes the aroma is part of the charm of craft beer, and this time there’s also Mikan Gose / Open Air, so it’s fun to compare the citrus character and acidity.
MugiWhoa, even the name Mikan Gose sounds summery! But what is Gose? That sounds like a spell or something!
Hop BroGose is an acidic style that often uses salt, so it’s basically all about enjoying the balance between saltiness and acidity. It finishes crisp, which makes it especially good on hot days.
MugiI get it! Then Tege Lemoful sounds like it has to be full of energy from the name alone. A collaboration between YELLOW APE CRAFT and Miyazaki Hideji Beer definitely has that limited-edition feel!
Hop BroExactly, collaborations are where a shop’s personality really comes through. On top of that, there’s Magic Flavor / Our Brewing, so the lineup has a solid structure for tasting side by side, and five taps still won’t get boring at all.
MugiAnd being open until midnight is perfect for a drink after work! If I could just drop by in Imahashi, Kitahama, the way home would feel like heaven!
Hop BroThey’re open as usual during Golden Week with Monday and Sunday closures, and they’ll also be vending on May 23 and 24, so I want to keep an eye on what they do next. Honestly, I’d want to hold a serious meeting right now about which one to drink first.
MugiThe conclusion is already decided: first drink first! Start gently with a Weizen, sharpen things up with a Gose, and finish by raising a glass with the collaboration beer!
Five tap openings were announced from YELLOW APE CRAFT, the beer pub in Imahashi, Osaka. The post begins, "Hello, this is Go," and alongside the notice about business during the period leading up to Golden Week, it introduces the day’s tap list.
The five beers tapped that day were Yebisu, Amakusa Shiranui Weizen / Mojiko Beer, Mikan Gose / Open Air, Tege Lemoful / YELLOW APE CRAFT x Miyazaki Hideji Beer, and Magic Flavor / Our Brewing. The lineup features styles like Weizen and Gose, which are easy to enjoy for their aroma, acidity, and light drinking character, making it a selection well suited to the rising temperatures of the season.
In particular, Amakusa Shiranui Weizen is expected to offer the soft mouthfeel typical of wheat-based beers, while Mikan Gose is a pour that draws attention for its balance of citrus notes, saltiness, and acidity. Tege Lemoful is a collaboration between YELLOW APE CRAFT and Miyazaki Hideji Beer, giving it a special limited feel unique to the shop. Magic Flavor, from Our Brewing, also seems likely to serve as a solid anchor for side-by-side tastings.
