CraftBeerWorks KAMIKAZE posts Tanabata tap list with Ushitora's 1,000th batch beer
The Osaka beer pub in Kitahorie shared its July 7 lineup, led by Ushitora Brewery's 1,000th-batch celebration beer `Sennosake ni Natte`. The 16-beer list ranges from lagers and ales to a fruit ale and several IPAs, alongside pizza and fried chicken service.
Hop BroTanabata just got tastier with a 16-tap lineup at CraftBeerWorks KAMIKAZE in Kitahorie, running from lagers all the way to IPAs.
MugiWhat! Sixteen beers? That’s the kind of list where I start choosing a glass before I even sit down!
Hop BroAnd the headliner is Sen no Sake ni Natte from Ushitora Brewery, their 1000th-batch commemorative release and basically the star of the night.
MugiThat name sounds so poetic, but what kind of beer is it? A 1000th batch beer already sounds intense!
Hop BroIt’s an American Quadruple IPA at 12% ABV, with fruity aroma, a rich mouthfeel, and surprisingly easy drinkability.
MugiHold on, Quadruple IPA? That sounds less like a beer and more like a final boss!
Hop BroBasically, it’s extra everything IPA energy: more hops, more body, more intensity, but still balanced enough to be dangerously smooth.
MugiSo it’s dangerously drinkable and dramatic? Honestly, that feels perfect for Tanabata.
Hop BroThe rest of the list is stacked too: Pilsner Urquell, Shiga Kogen’s ITALIAN-STYLE PILS!?, Minoh Beer’s COFFEE IPA, and more, so it’s lager to IPA range in one stop.
MugiAnd they’ve got pizza and fried chicken to pair with it, right? If busy times can mean a two-hour limit, I’m showing up early and ordering seriously.
Hop BroExactly. For food-friendly beer variety in Kitahorie, CraftBeerWorks KAMIKAZE looks like a very strong move.
MugiThen my wish for tonight is simple: I want a pour now.
Tanabata tap list
CraftBeerWorks KAMIKAZE shared a 16-beer lineup for July 7, covering lagers, ales, a fruit ale, and IPAs. The beer pub in Osaka's Kitahorie district keeps a schedule that fits drinking with food, opening from 4 p.m. on weekdays and from noon on weekends and holidays, with pizza and fried chicken available alongside the tap list.
The standout pour is Ushitora Brewery's anniversary beer, `Sennosake ni Natte`, brewed to mark the brewery's 1,000th batch. It is listed as an American Quadruple IPA at 12% ABV, and the pub describes it as fruity, full-bodied, and surprisingly easy to drink for its strength. It sits at the center of a lineup built around a celebratory Tanabata theme.
The lager section includes Pilsner Urquell, Asahi Super Dry, Asahi Maruefu Kuro Nama, Parantica from Mizonokuchi Brewing, and ITALIAN-STYLE PILS!? from Shiga Kogen Beer. The ale section features Dark Mild from Fermentation, `Sa-gyou ga Ienai Session Saison` from USHITORA BREWERY, `from scratch` from Shiga Kogen Beer, `Passion Ale` from Ushitora Brewery, and `Alone At Party` from Barbaric Works.
Other beers on the list include `RINGO FARMHOUSE ALE` from Manchin Brewing, `Yuru Brew spelt` from Shiga Kogen Beer, `No.06 MINAZUKI IPA` from Fermentation, `COFFEE IPA` from Minoh Beer, and `Disco Ninja` from Revision Brewing. It is the kind of tap list that lets drinkers move across classic pilsners, dark ales, fruit-driven beers, and modern IPAs in one visit.
The pub notes that seating may be limited to two hours during busy periods, so a targeted stop may be the best way to catch the beers you want. For drinkers in Osaka looking for a broad, food-friendly craft beer lineup, this is a tap list worth noting.
