Craft Beer Spot Hathor posts a 16-tap pale ale lineup in Osaka's Kyobashi
Craft Beer Spot Hathor in Osaka's Kyobashi shared a draft list built around 16 beers, with pale ales front and center. The lineup spans Daisen G Beer, Shiga Kogen Beer, Isekadoya Brewery, Yo-Ho Brewing, and several real-ale versions.
Hop BroKyobashi’s Craft Beer Spot Hathor just posted a 16-tap lineup for the day, and for pale ale fans, this is basically an incident.
MugiWhat! Sixteen pale ales? I’d get lost in the menu before I even ordered my first glass!
Hop BroAnd the core lineup is strong: Daisen G Beer, Shiga Kogen Beer’s DPA, Isekadoya’s Classic Pale Ale, even Yona Yona. It’s basically a tasting playground.
MugiOooh! Seeing Yona Yona Pale Ale makes it feel approachable, and then I’d totally want to branch out into the unfamiliar ones.
Hop BroThen you add Rise & Win’s Kamikatz Pale Ale, Miyazaki Hideji Beer’s Mori-shizuka Pale Ale, and Y. Market’s Overdrive, and you really get regional personality in the glass.
MugiWait, what is that? Some of them say real ale ver. Does that mean the beer feels extra real or something?
Hop BroNot quite. Real ale basically means a softer, more natural carbonation and a gentler texture. You can compare that character in beers like Shiga Kogen’s DPA and Oni Densetsu’s Kin-Oni Pale Ale.
MugiSeriously? The same style can change that much? The second you said gentler texture, I wanted to nod like I totally knew that already.
Hop BroAnd they also have Deschutes Mirror Pond Pale Ale and Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, so you can chase classic domestic and overseas examples on the same day.
MugiPlus they’re recommending veggie sticks with red paprika and stem broccoli, right? That summer snack pairing sounds dangerously easy to keep drinking with.
Hop BroThey open from 5 p.m. on Tuesdays too, and it sounds like the perfect place to let beer be the star with a light plate on the side. That’s a full Kyobashi beer plan right there.
MugiDone. We start with pale ale, try the real ale versions too, and end up saying ‘one more.’ I have an immediate thirst now!
