CRAFT BEER BASE BUD Releases Its April 19 10-Tap List, Including Two New Beers
The beer pub CRAFT BEER BASE BUD in Umeda, Osaka, has released its tap list for Sunday, April 19. The 10 taps include two new beers, with a broad lineup ranging from pale ale and Schwarzbier to altbier, bock, lager, and rauchbock.
Hop BroToday, CRAFT BEER BASE BUD in Osaka's Umeda has released its 10 taps for April 19, and it is a pretty interesting lineup. It opens at 12:00 and last call is 22:00, and since it is on B2 of Osaka Ekimae Daiichi Building, it is great for dropping in while wandering around Umeda.
MugiWait, there are 10 taps!? And two new ones too? I am already going to get lost before I even choose!
Hop BroThat is the fun part. No. 1, Gentle Lion, is a Modern American Pale Ale, and No. 2, Louch, is a Hazy Anise Ale, so it is a flavorful curveball with herbs and spices.
MugiWhat! Hazy Anise Ale? Beer with anise in it? That suddenly sounds like the candy aisle!
Hop BroExactly, but it is not sugary. Anise gives it an herbal aroma, and hazy means it has that cloudy look, so basically it is a beer that plays around with aroma.
MugiOhhh! Then there are also the clean, crisp ones like No. 3 Schwarzbier and No. 8 Japanese Lager, so you can really change things up depending on your mood.
Hop BroExactly. And No. 4, Album, is an altbier; No. 5, Maple Bock, has maple syrup in it; and No. 10, ONMEN BRÄU, is a rauchbock, so it even brings in a smoky character. The range of flavors is really wide.
MugiRauchbock!? Smoked beer? That explanation is way too intense for my brain to keep up!
Hop BroIt is not literally like drinking bacon, but you do get the toasty aroma from smoked malt. So it leaves a bacon-like aftertaste, and people who like that kind of toasty character will probably love it.
MugiI see! And No. 9 is a table beer with elements derived from Merlot, right? This is way too much of a tasting rabbit hole, and I do not think I can go home after just one glass!
Hop BroExactly. From brisk lagers to spice, maple, and smoke, this lineup makes you want more than just one drink in Umeda today.
MugiYeah, this is impossible! It is not just a today's beer kind of lineup; it makes me want to try as many as I can, and now I want to head to CRAFT BEER BASE BUD right away!
