Osaka's umbrella opens June 5 with Ise Kadoya and four other beers on tap
The Osaka beer pub umbrella opened at 6:00 p.m. on Friday, June 5. Its tap list for the day includes Ise Kadoya Beer’s DDH Hazy IPA, an Egre Brewery x umbrella fruit ale collaboration, Minoh Beer, Draught Guinness, and Kirin Lager.
Hop BroIn Osaka's Sonezaki basement, umbrella opened at 6 PM on June 5. And the first-day tap list is seriously strong.
MugiWait, a basement beer pub already has secret hideout vibes! And they launched with five taps right away?
Hop BroOne of the headliners is ISEKADOYA's DDH Hazy IPA, Hop Nyaon 11th Fleet. It's the kind of beer that really lets hop aroma shine.
MugiHold on, what is DDH? That sounds like full wizard jargon. Do I need a glossary before I get a glass?
Hop BroDDH means piling on extra dry hops, and Hazy IPA means a cloudy, juicy IPA. So basically it's aroma turned way up with a tropical feel.
MugiOhhh, I get it now! So that one is basically a cheers with your nose before the first sip.
Hop BroAnother big one is the Egre Brewery x umbrella collab, Ichigo Ichie. It's a fruit ale with bright fruit character, and the local collab angle is a nice touch.
MugiThat name is adorable! And if Minoh Beer is also pouring Umechu fruit ale, I'd be torn between team strawberry and team plum all night.
Hop BroExactly, and they also have Draught Guinness and Kirin Lager, so it's a really wide lineup. You can go adventurous or keep it classic.
MugiThat actually helps a lot. It sounds like a beginner-friendly tap list, which makes it easy to bring craft newbies along.
Hop BroThey're also selling a beer ticket for six small craft pours at 5,800 yen total. It's valid for six months, and they can even do a Guinness pint downstairs.
MugiAll right, we just need an opening-day game plan and to avoid the June 7 and 14 closures, because now I want the hoppy one first and the fruit ales right after.
The basement beer pub `umbrella` in Osaka's Kita Ward opened at 6:00 p.m. on June 5. In its Instagram post, the bar shared a five-beer tap list that spans hop-forward IPA, fruit ale, stout, and lager.
Today's taps
- `Hop Nyaon Dai 11 Kantai` / Ise Kadoya Beer (Mie) - DDH Hazy IPA
- `Ichigoichie` / Egre Brewery (Hyogo) x umbrella (Osaka) - Fruit Ale
- `Umechu` / Minoh Beer (Osaka) - Fruit Ale
- `Draught Guinness` / Guinness - Draught Guinness
- `Kirin Lager` / Kirin Brewery - Lager
A notable pour is `Ichigoichie`, the collaboration between Hyogo's Egre Brewery and Osaka's umbrella. It appears as a fruit ale with the venue's own name attached, which makes it stand out as a local collaboration. The list also balances hop expression with more approachable fruit-driven options, so it works whether you want something aromatic or something softer and more sessionable.
The post also mentions a beer ticket now on sale: six small craft-beer pours for 5,800 yen. It is valid for six months from purchase and will end when sold out. Downstairs, Guinness pints are available as well. The bar notes closures on June 7 and June 14, so checking the schedule before visiting makes sense.
Information may be inaccurate. Please refer to the venue’s official channels for the latest details.
