CraftBeerSpot Hathor in Osaka opens Miyazaki Hideji Beer’s Kurikuro
CraftBeerSpot Hathor, a beer pub in Osaka’s Kyobashi area, posted its latest draft lineup on Instagram and added one new keg: Miyazaki Hideji Beer’s Kurikuro. The board ranges from lemon-forward beers and gose to IPA, real ale, and dark beer, making it a good place for side-by-side tasting.
Hop BroToday's topic is Hatohol's new keg. At Craft Beer Spot Hatohol in Kyobashi, Osaka, they just tapped one keg of Miyazaki Hideji Beer's Kurikuro.
MugiWhat! That name Kurikuro already sounds like an autumn final boss. What kind of beer is it?
Hop BroIt's basically a chestnut-tinged dark beer with deep roast character. It feels like the kind of pour you save for the second half of the night.
MugiWhoa, but deep roast character suddenly makes this sound like a coffee lecture!
Hop BroThat's where roasted malt comes in. It's malt kilned dark to create toasty, bittersweet notes, kind of like burnt toast or dark chocolate.
MugiNo way, burnt-toast flavor somehow sounds delicious. And if it hints at chestnut too, even dark-beer beginners could get curious.
Hop BroAnd the bigger draw is the 12-tap lineup. You've got lemony beers, Plum Gose, Vitt Nat IPA, and even a real-ale version from Oni Densetsu.
MugiSo it's basically made for side-by-side tasting! Start bright and zippy, then end on Kurikuro like the credits rolling on a movie.
Hop BroExactly. Hatohol is known for 16 taps and house-smoked food, and it opens at 5 p.m. on weekdays and 3 p.m. on weekends and holidays, so it works for a quick stop or a longer session.
MugiI'm sold. Start with citrusy pours, then finish on Kurikuro, with a gose and IPA in the middle.
Hop BroThat's the order. I already want to end on Kurikuro, and with smoked food on the table, I'm probably not leaving early.
