Hop BroHirakata's beer pub, The Beer Shop Hirakata city, rolled out its April 11 draft beers. The fact that you can drink while watching the Osaka derby inside the shop is already pretty intense.
MugiWait, you can watch the match while drinking!? And it's the draft beer lineup for Saturday, April 11 too, so it really feels like a one-day-only special!
Hop BroAnd the featured deal is great. If Gamba wins in 90 minutes, Sapporo Black Label is half price. It is a setup where the match result is directly tied to the beer.
MugiWhat, half price if they win in 90 minutes? That means your support is controlling the result and your wallet at the same time! And just the phrase Gamba Victory Beer already sounds intense!
Hop BroThey also have Hanshin Tigers Ale. It's a beer from Craft Beer Base, described as having the easy-drinking character of a golden ale, so it pairs well with sports viewing.
MugiGolden ale sounds shiny, but what's actually different about it? Is it kind of an easy-drinking style?
Hop BroBasically, it's a style that doesn't hit too hard with bitterness and goes down smoothly. So it's easy to match with baseball fans, and what makes it nice is that it stays light and easy to drink even in the heat of the derby.
MugiGot it! And they also have Hirakata Beer's Session Citra White and Kuni no Cho Beer's American Pale Ale, which already makes me want to compare them just from the names!
Hop BroExactly. What's interesting is that they even have hoppy modern styles in the lineup. Flora Fermentation's Frigg and West Coast Brewing's Boom Box are there too, so the regions and personalities are all over the place and that makes it fun.
MugiBeing open from 1:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. means it's usable both before and after the match, which is way too strong! This is definitely a place to start with a pre-game drink!
Hop BroExactly. Whether Gamba wins or loses, the right way to end the day is to finish with beer after watching the Osaka derby.
MugiYeah, after hearing about this, I definitely want to drink! I want to work through the draft lineup one by one!
