CraftBeerWorks KAMIKAZE in Kitahorie, Osaka, has published its tap list for April 21, 2026. A new collaboration beer, "Torahachi Beer," from Yatsugatake Brewery and Taihu Brewing has been connected, and a wide range of beers from lager to IPA is now on tap.
Hop BroToday I found a fresh topic at CraftBeerWorks KAMIKAZE in Kitahorie, Osaka: a collaboration between Yatsugatake Brewery and Taihu Brewing.
MugiWhoa, a collaboration! And the name is Torahachi Beer? That already sounds strong and tasty!
Hop BroExactly, and what's inside is a Taiwanese oolong tea rice lager. When tea aromatics come through, it becomes much more refined.
MugiRice lager? What’s that? Does it have rice in it? So it’s basically an rice-based lager?
Hop BroThat’s basically the right idea. It uses rice to make it light, and this one is interesting because it also has an Earl Grey-like aroma.
MugiOhh! So it’s crisp but still has character? Like a light, easy drink with a bright, floral aroma!
Hop BroExactly. And KAMIKAZE’s taps range from lager to IPA, so there’s real fun in comparing them side by side.
MugiWow, the lineup is strong too! Pilsner Urquell, the Asahi beers, and then all these distinctive styles too? That’s suddenly very serious!
Hop BroThat’s what makes it great. Hours are 16:00-25:00, and from 18:00-23:00 they serve the full menu, so you can settle in and choose carefully.
MugiThen tonight in Kitahorie, I want to start with Torahachi Beer! I’d love to keep track of the tap changes while I look for the one drink I really want.
