Osaka’s café&beer Arca-Archa opens a nine-tap lineup focused on local beer on June 6
The Osaka beer pub café&beer Arca-Archa in Namba will open from 1:00 p.m. on June 6 with a nine-tap lineup centered on local breweries. The selection ranges from a house collaboration red ale to herb-infused golden ale, Hazy IPA, stout, and classic import and lager options.
Hop BroIn Namba Sennichimae, Aruka→Aruka is opening from 1 p.m. on June 6 with nine taps centered on Osaka-local beer.
MugiWhat! Nine taps at once sounds less like opening hours and more like a full-on festival. What’s pouring?
Hop BroThe headliner is 13 Red Ale, a collab between Aruka→Aruka and One's Brewery, and the style is a Session Red IPA.
MugiWait, what is a Session Red IPA supposed to be? Red? Light? My brain just got a foam overflow.
Hop BroIt has a reddish malt character and hop aroma, but it doesn’t drink heavy at all. Basically, think easy-drinking red IPA.
MugiOhh, that sounds approachable. And there’s a herbal golden ale too? This tap list suddenly put on a fancy hat.
Hop BroYep, that’s Lavender&Chamomile from CRAFT BEER BASE, and Derailleur Brew Works is even bringing an IPL pour into the lineup.
MugiHold on, an IPL pour is what exactly? That sounds like beer jargon trying to sneak past me.
Hop BroIt’s got IPA-like hop aroma, but the finish is crisp like a lager. Plus there’s HAZY IPA Yuzu from MARCA and a banana milk weizen from BAK, so the playful side is strong.
MugiYuzu and banana milk in the same lineup? Then Minoh STOUT, PUNK IPA, and Heartland too? That is ridiculously broad range energy.
Hop BroAnd the food is built for beer: bamboo shoot spring rolls, meaty pizza, Korean-style pasta, ajillo, and water eggplant sashimi. It’s a beer-first food menu all the way.
MugiThat’s it, I can hear my throat asking for a pint already. Tonight is Namba first-round locked; you take the 13 Red Ale, and I’m starting with the yuzu hazy!
