The beer pub YELLOW APE CRAFT in Imabashi, Osaka, announced three kegs tapped for the day in a May 9 post. With taps from Ushitora Brewery, Shiga Kogen Beer, and Oni Densetsu Beer lined up, the post also announced an all-you-can-drink course and upcoming events.
Hop BroYELLOW APE CRAFT in Imabashi, Osaka, put out a post saying three kegs are tapped today. When Ushitora, Shiga Kogen, and Oni Densetsu line up, you can't help grinning in front of the taps, right?
MugiWhoa! All three sound strong, but isn't there too much information in those names alone? Just reading them makes me feel tipsy!
Hop BroThe main attraction is Ushitora Brewery's Cho, Late Yo! And since it's the Real Ale Ver, it's a beer you can enjoy along with the feel of the pour and the condition of the cask.
MugiReal ale? What is that! Is it different from regular ale? The name sounds like a joke, but suddenly technical terms are flying at me!
Hop BroBroadly speaking, it's a style where you can more easily feel the natural maturation character in the cask. The carbonation isn't too strong, the aroma and mouthfeel are softer, and the beer's personality comes through more clearly.
MugiOhh! Then Shiga Kogen Beer's From Scratch sounds like one you want to savor slowly too, right? I like that craftsman-like ring to it!
Hop BroExactly. It tends to show Shiga Kogen's sturdy character, and Oni Densetsu's Mosaic Single Ver should really put the hop character out front. Mosaic often gives citrusy or tropical aromas, so the differences become easy to notice when you compare them.
MugiWow, that's a fun lineup to compare! But the owner's "try imitating and ordering it" comment is kind of funny. It feels like a test of whether you can say the beer names properly!
Hop BroIf you can rattle off those long names smoothly, you'll seem a little in the know inside the bar. And YELLOW APE CRAFT is strong on the all-you-can-drink side too, with a 6,000-yen course covering everything and a 5,000-yen course for 10 craft beers.
MugiThat's amazing! The food is strong too, with appetizers, jerk chicken, and everything else clearly designed to make you drink more beer!
Hop BroBusiness hours are 15:00-24:30 Tuesday through Saturday, so it's easy to stop by after work. Also, they're closed from May 23 to May 26 for an event, and May 30 is scheduled for Hayate Bakery, so if you're going, checking the dates is a must.
MugiAll right, let's line up our plans and go! Tonight's beer pick is definitely the one that makes you laugh at the name first and then go "wow" at the taste!
The beer pub YELLOW APE CRAFT in Imabashi, Chuo Ward, Osaka, updated its tap list in an Instagram post on May 9. The post announced that "three kegs are tapped today," introducing three craft beers with distinct characters.
Today's Tappings
- Cho, Late Yo! Real Ale Ver / Ushitora Brewery
- From Scratch / Shiga Kogen Beer
- Kinki Pale Ale Mosaic Single Ver / Oni Densetsu Beer
Among them, "Cho, Late Yo! Real Ale Ver," introduced as a new real ale, was accompanied by a comment from the owner saying he "definitely wants people to imitate and order it," so there may be some fun in saying the beer name aloud at the tap. The lineup spans pale ale styles that let hop character shine clearly to a beer that really shows the brewery's personality, making it a lineup worth comparing side by side.
YELLOW APE CRAFT is an Osaka beer pub where craft beer takes center stage. The post also introduced a craft beer all-you-can-drink course, with a 6,000-yen course that includes all beers on tap that day and a 5,000-yen course covering 10 kinds of craft beer. The food lineup includes assorted appetizers, the chef's whims salad, assorted fried dishes, crostini with anchovy and cheese, jerk chicken, and today's pasta, all of which pair easily with beer.
Business hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 15:00-24:30 (last order 24:00). The shop is in the Kitahama area, making it easy to stop by after work. The post also announced that the shop will be closed from May 23 to May 26 due to an appearance at Craft Beer Live, and that May 30 is scheduled for "Hayate Bakery." It is a place where you can enjoy choosing your next drink while following tap list updates.
