At ALE HOUSE Kamiya, a beer pub in Doyama-cho, Osaka, Camado Brewery’s EX. Schwarz has been tapped. It is the venue’s first beer from Camado Brewery, making it a notable addition for drinkers who follow new Japanese craft releases.

According to the pub’s post, the beer offers a deep malt character from dark malts and a surprisingly clean profile created with Kveik Ale Yeast. That combination suggests a Schwarzbier-like beer that keeps the roasty, dark-beer character while staying crisp enough for warm weather drinking.

The name EX. is tied to five ideas: exceed, experimental, explore, express, and excellent. In other words, the beer is presented not just as a classic dark lager-style beer, but as a cleaner, more expressive interpretation with a forward-looking brewery concept behind it.

ALE HOUSE Kamiya is located at K1 Building B1F, 2-10 Doyama-cho, Kita-ku, Osaka. As a basement beer pub in a busy nightlife district, it is the kind of place where you can drop in after work or stay late for another round. The pub also updates its draft lineup in stories, so checking ahead can help you see what is currently on tap before you go.
