Canal brewing in Oimachi lines up VERTERE cans and eight taps
Canal brewing in Oimachi, Tokyo stayed open on a stop-and-start rainy day and introduced three VERTERE cans alongside an eight-beer tap list. The lineup spans IPA, lager, sour, and porter styles.
Hop BroToday’s topic is Oimachi’s Canal brewing with three VERTERE cans and eight taps. They’re open as usual even on a rainy on-and-off kind of day, and this lineup really fits that mood.
MugiWhat! On a rainy day too? That sounds like one quick after-work beer turning into a full stay without warning!
Hop BroThe cans are a great start. VERTERE has Zela as a Pomegranate Sour, Passiflora as a Hazy IPA, and Casimiroa as a NEIPA, so you can compare acidity and hop character side by side.
MugiHold on, you just dropped NEIPA like it’s normal, but that sounds like a spell. My brain is foaming over here!
Hop BroNEIPA means New England IPA. It’s an IPA that’s hazy and juicy, focusing more on soft texture and fruity aroma than sharp bitterness.
MugiOhhh, that helps! Now Casimiroa sounds really tempting, and with Zela in the mix too, it feels like three totally different moods just from the cans.
Hop BroAnd the taps cover a lot of ground. There’s Canal’s core C and C w/pineapple, plus Oldnew Downtown, a yuzu-accented lager, and collabs like Daylight Moon and Midnight Sun.
MugiNo way, from IPA to yuzu lager, fruit ale, and saison? That’s festival-level variety. Eight taps and my decision-making is already collapsing!
Hop BroThe closing lineup hits hard too. try is a Scottish Ale, and Peanut Butter Po Taro ~Nitro ver~ is a Flavored Porter. Nitro gives super fine creamy bubbles, so the whole pour feels smoother and rounder.
MugiThat’s unfairly tempting. If they’re open until 23:00 with last order at 22:30, I can already picture ending on a porter after pretending I just came in to dodge the rain.
Hop BroThat’s what’s good about Canal brewing: it shows off both staples and collabs properly. Whether you compare VERTERE cans or work through the taps, it’s the best kind of dilemma.
MugiI’m sold. I want to start with Passiflora for a hop blast and finish with Peanut Butter Po Taro. I’m basically ready to head to Oimachi now!
