Hop BroThe latest taps at Beer Space On Tap in Kobe Motomachi are seriously exciting, with a Sunday 3:00 p.m. opening!
MugiWhat! Being able to go in the afternoon is perfect! Is there a featured new tap too?
Hop BroThere is: SOUTH HORIZON BREWING’s "All Aboard," and it’s a West Coast IPA. At ABV 7% and IBU 55, the bitterness really pops!
MugiSeriously! In the IBU 55 zone, won’t a beginner’s palate get left behind!?
Hop BroIt’s fine. IBU is just a guide to bitterness, and All Aboard has a dry, clear finish, so it doesn’t feel heavy. Just remember that the resinous note means a pine-like aroma!
MugiOh wow, pine aroma suddenly makes it feel like a forest! And there are six taps total too, right?
Hop BroExactly. HIROSHIMA NOH BREWERY’s Hassaku Saison, Tsukarenaosu’s AMERICAN PALE ALE, Nara Brewing’s UNDERWATER 26, Egret Brewery On tap, and RIO BREWING SOCIAL GRAVITY make for a great lineup for a tasting comparison!
MugiThat lineup is strong! And On Tap is welcoming to solo guests, right? Nice to be able to drop by casually!
Hop BroIt’s near Motomachi Station, so starting with All Aboard and then moving on to lighter styles works well, or starting with the saison is great too. The fun part is how the order changes the impression.
MugiThen it’s decided! Today it’s an afternoon beer in Kobe. Both Hop and I are totally parched!
