Hop BroBeer pub umbrella in Sonezaki, Osaka, is opening at 6:00 p.m. on April 4. Even the rainy-day atmosphere makes it feel like a proper underground beer pub kind of start.
MugiWait, opening underground already makes it exciting! Saying 'It's raining, huh?' while opening sounds way too atmospheric, doesn't it?
Hop BroAnd the new tap is Minoh Beer 'Blooming IPA'. It's a 6.0% beer from Osaka, and it's labeled as a Belgian IPA.
MugiA Belgian IPA? What is that! IPA but Belgian? I'm getting a little confused!
Hop BroIn simple terms, it's a style where the hop character of an IPA is paired with the fruity aroma of Belgian yeast. It's a style where you play with aromatic individuality, not just bitterness.
MugiSo it's an IPA that makes you smile with aroma! And there are five taps lined up, which makes me feel lost just looking at them!
Hop BroThe lineup is great too. You've got Akkeshi Coast IPA, Kamigata Beer's Awaawa Sour, Draught Guinness, and Kirin Lager, so you can really see the range of styles.
MugiWait, they have Guinness and Kirin Lager too!? It's not just craft beer, it feels comfortably familiar too, so it's easy to walk in!
Hop BroExactly. Underground umbrella also serving Guinness pints is pretty cool. They do a good job of leaning into craft while still covering the classics.
MugiAnd beer tickets are 6 drinks for 5,800 yen? That's the kind of thing that makes you want to go regularly, right? If they're valid for six months, you can drink on a schedule!
Hop BroThey're closed on April 5 and April 12, so if you're going, checking the tap lineup that day is important. And there's also the 15th Party in May, so this is making me want to head underground for a drink.
MugiYeah, I want to start with Blooming IPA! I'm in the mood to toast right now!
