MARCA offers seasonal limited-release "MANGO SHAKE IPA," open 11:00-23:00
MARCA, based in Nishi Ward, Osaka City, has begun serving its seasonal beer, "MANGO SHAKE IPA." On Instagram, the bar also announced its all-day hours of 11:00-23:00 (Lo. 22:30), along with 10 regular beers, guest beers, and a beer-and-food set available by reservation only.
Hop BroThe seasonal "MANGO SHAKE IPA" that MARCA in Kita-Horie tapped is really a very current kind of beer.
MugiWait, a mango IPA? Just the name already feels super tropical!
Hop BroExactly. And because it's a shake IPA, it's a style where the soft sweetness and juiciness come through easily.
MugiShake it? Wait, you don't actually shake the beer, right? Is this the one that spills everywhere!? What even is a shake IPA!
Hop BroNot literally shaking it. It often uses lactose to give it a smooth, creamy mouthfeel. That's why the fruit character comes forward.
MugiOhhh! And MARCA is open 11:00-23:00 all day, right? Being able to drink from lunchtime is pretty dangerous and amazing!
Hop BroDangerous and amazing, exactly. And right now they have 10 regular beers on tap, from GOLDEN ALE all the way to BLACK IPA.
MugiWow, that's the kind of place where just choosing sounds fun! If they have a HAZY IPA too, I think I'd end up debating forever!
Hop BroAnd on top of that, they have guest beers like Kura-biraki Lager and IPL too, so it's a lineup that's fun to compare beyond just IPAs.
MugiThey even have a reservation-only set? Beer with kushikatsu and takoyaki and all that is basically all of Osaka's happiness piled on one plate!
Hop BroExactly. The nice thing is that you can casually enjoy pairings that feel so Osaka.
MugiWow, just reading this is making me thirsty! I want to start with the MANGO SHAKE IPA!
Hop BroDeal. Then today, the only choice is to go raise a toast in Kita-Horie.
