café&beer Aruka→Aruka posts a summer 9-tap lineup in Namba
On July 23, café&beer Aruka→Aruka in Osaka's Namba district posted a nine-tap lineup centered on local breweries, ranging from lemon saison and DDH IPA to sake-kasu ale and stout.
Hop BroFor the July 23 service update, café&beer Aruka➝Aruka's nine taps look almost perfectly built for summer drinking.
MugiWait, nine summer taps? I'm already in. What do they have?
Hop BroThe list leans heavily local, starting with the collab 13 Red Ale as a Session Red IPA, then running through HybridTheory IPA from Osaka Namba Brewers.
MugiHold on, DDH IPA sounds like a robot upgrade. What does that even mean?
Hop BroDDH means extra dry hopping. They add more hops after fermentation so the aroma leaps right out of the glass.
MugiOhhh, then Lemon Saison from Banrishun Shuzo must be the breezy summer one, right?
Hop BroExactly. Saison usually brings bright spice and tang, and the lemon makes it feel even more refreshing. Then they stack on a cardamom wheat too.
MugiCardamom too!? Boku Karudaemon already wins on the name alone, and then they add a sake-kasu ale? This tap list is chaos in the best way.
Hop BroThat's the smart part. Beppin Sakekasu Ale should bring a soft rice-derived depth, and the STOUT, PUNK IPA, and Heartland pilsner lock in the classic side.
MugiSo it has the funky craft stuff and the familiar anchors. First-timers are safe and regulars still get plenty to geek out over.
Hop BroRight, it's a lineup where you can go from citrus to stout with food the whole way, which is exactly what a good beer pub should do.
MugiNow I'm stuck on the real problem: what do we order first? Because I absolutely want a glass right now.
