Hop BroOsaka's Kita-Horie spot, CraftBeerWorks KAMIKAZE, updated its taps in the June 1 posting. This lineup is pretty bold.
MugiWait, 14 taps updated? Isn't that too many!? That's the kind of menu that makes you scream with joy the moment you see it!
Hop BroThe highlight is CYCAD BREWING's Revoluta. It's a West Coast Pilsner, with bitterness and crispness firmly dialed in.
MugiA West Coast Pilsner? So it's a pilsner that's bitter? The name alone is already packed with information!
Hop BroRoughly speaking, it's like taking the drinkability of a pilsner and adding IPA-like aroma and bitterness. What makes it good is that it has a clean shape you can drink smoothly on a hot day.
MugiI see, this is the kind of beer you want in a chilled glass! And if they've got everything from lagers to IPAs, you can just pick based on your mood!
Hop BroThe regular lineup includes Pilsner Urquell, Asahi Super Dry, and Asahi Maruef Kuro Nama, so it's set up to make comparison easy with familiar flavors.
MugiBeing able to do comparison tastings is the best! But if they also have Shiga Kogen's Miyama Blonde and the like, my plans are going to go off the rails halfway through!
Hop BroExactly. They've even got Shiga Kogen's SNOW MONKEY IPA, Ushitora's pear saison, and FLORA FERMENTATION's Cascara, so the range of aromas is huge.
MugiIf this much is lined up in Kita-Horie, it already feels like a daytime bar crawl. Whether after work or just stopping by, I get the feeling one drink won't be enough today!
Hop BroOn weekdays they open from 4 p.m., and on weekends they also open at midday, so the nice thing is that you can drink at your own pace while following the changing taps.
MugiThen I'll start with Revoluta! You should plan to work through all 14 taps, big brother. Let's go out drinking seriously today!
