café&beer Aruka→Aruka in Osaka's Namba Presents 9 Taps and Food
café&beer Aruka→Aruka in Osaka's Namba has unveiled today's 9 taps. Centered on local Osaka beers such as Aruka→Aruka × Wons Brewery's Session Red IPA, the lineup also includes Minoh Beer and CRAFT BEER BASE, and is designed to be enjoyed alongside food.
Hop BroOsaka-Namba's 9-tap lineup is out, and café&beer Aruka→Aruka is going pretty aggressive today. I like that it's centered on local beers and covers everything from light to full-bodied.
MugiWhoa! You can drink that much in Namba? A lineup centered on Osaka locals sounds so full of hometown pride, I'm getting excited!
Hop BroThe star is definitely 13 Red Ale. It's a Session Red IPA from Aruka→Aruka × Wons Brewery, with malt depth but a light, easy-drinking finish. In other words, it's one of those 'red but you can sip it smoothly' beers.
MugiWhat's a session, anyway! Session Red IPA sounds like a red beer that's in a long meeting!
Hop BroNo, no, it just means easy to drink. It doesn't feel heavy in alcohol, but you still get the aroma and bitterness, so it's designed to make you want another glass.
MugiOhhh! Then Lavender&Chamomile sounds tempting too! A beer with herbs sounds so stylish I feel like my mouth won't catch up!
Hop BroCRAFT BEER BASE's one is a Golden Ale with herbs, and the lingering aroma is really clean. Also, it's interesting that they have distinctive choices lined up, like Derailleur Brew Works' NIGHT RIDER ROUTE 26, MARCA BREWING's CoffeeAmber, and BAK Brewing's NEWBIE.
MugiWow, just the names sound delicious! And they even have Minoh Beer's Mugicha Bitter, which is kind of reassuring. Having a familiar face there makes me feel at ease!
Hop BroExactly, they also stock STOUT as a staple, and with PUNK IPA and Heartland too, it's easy to build a progression. You can start light, move to aromatic beers, and finish with something fuller.
MugiThe food is strong too! Fried chicken tenderloin and plate wontons are exactly the kind of beer companions I want. Now I have one more reason to drink!
Hop BroIf they've got new potato gratin all the way to pescatore, then the meal itself is the main event. If I saw this tap list and food menu in Namba, I don't think I'd be able to go home after just one drink.
MugiGot it, this is a drinking-through-the-lineup kind of place! Let's start with a local pint in Namba, then toast together at the end!
