Kobe's Onaji Ana no Mujina refreshes its taps with Oni Densetsu and more
On July 15, Kobe's craft beer pub Onaji Ana no Mujina posted a fresh tap list featuring Oni Densetsu, Y.Market Brewing, Marlowe, and North Park. The lineup moves from a clear beer into hop-forward hazy styles, making it a strong fit for hop lovers.
Hop BroToday's pick is Onajiananomujina in Kobe's Sannomiya. Their July 15 tap update is stacked, with seven kegs ranging from Oni Densetsu to North Park.
MugiWait, seven new kegs at once!? That's wild. And a beer called Kin Oni already sounds like it could punch summer in the face!
Hop BroThe smart part is the lineup. It starts with a clear pour like Oni Densetsu's Kin Oni Luminosa Single Ver., then moves into Y.Market Brewing's NEW Onigashima IX and Marlowe IPAs in a practical tap order.
MugiHold on, what's a hazy IPA? That suddenly sounds like beer with its own weather system!
Hop BroBasically, yes. A hazy IPA is cloudy and aroma-forward; a clear beer feels crisp, while the hazy ones have a juice-like texture that wraps around your palate.
MugiOhhh! So you tune up with Kin Oni, then dive into X-Raying Nectaron for the tropical-fruit hop blast? That sounds weirdly advanced and I love it.
Hop BroExactly. And with Marlowe's William, Ghost Signatures: 3cone, plus YEAHNOYEAH with Beak Brewing, it's a day made for chasing the shape of the hops.
MugiWhat is this, a Marlowe festival? And if they also have Bas Canada and Tree House in cans, this place really doesn't stop at draft!
Hop BroThat's the fun of it. DDH means extra dry hopping for a bigger aroma hit, and with cans and bottles on top of the taps, it's a great place to dig deeper. Masala cashews and 2Bro pizza fit right in too.
MugiI'm done for. On a hot day I want to go from crisp to hazy and finish with pizza and Onigashima like it's the perfect little quest.
Hop BroAnd they've got TTOs from July 24 to 26, a BDP on July 25, and the Autumn Oni Festival from August 7 to 9. For today, though, I'm starting with one glass of Kin Oni and then opening a can.
Onaji Ana no Mujina in Sannomiya, Kobe, is a taproom that only pours beers the owner considers worth serving. In its July 15 tap update, the bar leaned into summer with a lineup that started with a clear beer and moved into hazy, hop-forward selections.
Draft highlights
- Oni Densetsu, `Kinki Lumino Single Ver.`
- Ymarket.brewing, `NEW鬼ヶ島Ⅸ`
- Breakedge, `Approach`
- Marlowe, `William`
- North Park, `X-Raying Nectaron`
- Marlowe, `Ghost Signatures: 3cone`
- Marlowe × Beak Brewing, `YEAHNOYEAH`
The balance matters here: a clean, transparent opening beer, then a run of cloudy IPA-style pours that let the hop character take over. It is the kind of tap list that rewards slow comparison rather than one-and-done drinking.
The can selection is equally serious. Brasserie du Bas Canada's `DDH CALIGLA`, `PREMIERE BATCH`, and `ASTERION` are joined by beers from ONE DROP, root+branch, Fidens, Lumen, RaR, Deep Fried Beer, TreeHouse, North Park, Phase Three, and Messorem. Because the venue also serves cans and bottles on site, it is easy to move from draft to packaged beer without leaving the room.
Food options include masala cashews, 2Bro pizza, and "Nama-chan's ates," and the bar also notes that outside food is allowed. For beer fans in Kobe, this is a compact spot where the tap list, packaged beer, and snack selection all point in the same direction: drink well and take your time.
The post also lists upcoming events: a TTO from July 24 to 26, BDP on July 25, and the Autumn Oni Festival from August 7 to 9.
