YELLOW APE CRAFT Opens Shiga Kogen Beer’s KASUMI in Osaka Kitahama
YELLOW APE CRAFT in Osaka’s Kitahama area announced a fresh tap of Shiga Kogen Beer’s KASUMI. The post describes it as a clean, easy-drinking beer for humid weather, and the day’s tap list also includes beers from Camado Brewery, Kyoto Brewing Co., Daisen G Beer, and Minoh Beer.
Hop BroYELLOW APE CRAFT in Kitahama just put Shiga Kogen Beer's KASUMI on tap. The moment I hear it's only one keg, I want to head over.
MugiWhat, just one keg? That is dangerously limited. KASUMI sounds soft and dreamy, but what kind of beer is it?
Hop BroThe post describes it as crisp even in humidity, and it's 4.5% ABV. Not heavy at all, so it sounds perfect for a first glass.
MugiWait, 4.5% ABV suddenly makes this sound like science class. So basically, easy to drink without bracing for impact?
Hop BroExactly. ABV means alcohol by volume, and here it tells you KASUMI should go down light and smooth. On a sticky day, that really hits.
MugiAnd YELLOW APE CRAFT is that 20-tap pub, right? I'd need a full strategy meeting before ordering!
Hop BroThat's the fun part. This lineup has a wide style range with hazy IPA, IPA, stout, and even strong ale. You can start easy and build up.
MugiHold on, Hazy IPA sounds like a weather forecast. It's cloudy on purpose and people love that?
Hop BroPretty much. It's an IPA with haze and a softer, juicier aroma profile. Think Kamado Brewery's Kasumu Ryosen Hazy IPA from the same tap list.
MugiOkay, so I can start clean with KASUMI, then move to Daisen G Beer's IPA or Minoh Beer's stout. That's a game-plan kind of bar.
Hop BroExactly, and being able to check the tap list first makes it even better. I already want to start with KASUMI and debate my second pour before I even leave for Kitahama.
MugiThat's it, I'm done for. Reading this made me want a beer immediately. On a muggy day, my first pint has to be KASUMI!
