Kobe's Onaji Ana no Mujina: Oni Densetsu 'Kinki Pale Ale' and 7 Others on Today's Tap List
Kobe Sannomiya beer pub Onaji Ana no Mujina has released its 'Today’s Taps' for May 21. Hours are 19:00 to 22:45. Seven beers, mixing clear and hazy styles, are on the board, with domestic breweries plus an overseas collaboration in the mix.
Hop BroKobe Sannomiya's Onaji Ana no Mujina has posted its Today's Taps. On May 21 it'll be open from 19:00 to 22:45, and even on a rainy day it looks set to be a night with a strong hop presence.
MugiOh, it starts at 19:00! Since it's later than usual, it feels like the kind of place you can drop by after work and really relax.
Hop BroYeah, the focus this time is the one-two punch of clear and hazy. Pairing easy-drinking beers with fuller-bodied ones really shows they know how to read the drinker's mood.
MugiWhat's 'clear' even mean? Transparent? I thought beer was supposed to look hazy if it was strong, but are clear and hazy really that different?
Hop BroFor example, Oni Densetsu's Kinki Pale Ale is the ADHA-1631 single ver., a type that keeps the drinkability of a pale ale while sharpening the hop profile.
MugiWow! And they even have new kegs like Ymarketbrewing's Over Drive IP and open air's 'warm up' - that lineup has serious momentum!
Hop BroExactly. Add BreakEdge's 'Cope' and Ise Kadoya Beer's DDH Citra Hazy IPA, and the aroma and body both jump up a notch. DDH means the beer gets hit with layers of dry hopping, so the citrus character really comes forward.
MugiDry hopping sounds like a science experiment! But when I hear Hazy IPA, it sounds hazy, fruity, and delicious, which feels almost unfair!
Hop BroAnd there's even an overseas collaboration with RAR × Hop Butcher, so it's interesting that the lineup isn't just local breweries but has a real international feel. RAR × Brujos is on there too, so it's the kind of list that makes tasting one after another impossible to stop.
MugiIf they have masala cashews and 2Bro pizza too, the snack lineup is solid! This is the kind of place where you want to work your way slowly through the taps and loop endlessly on snacks.
Hop BroThey've even got a notice for the Revival Onajimakinomujina special day on May 24 and an event preview for May 30, so there are plenty of reasons to drink in Sannomiya right now. Tonight makes you want to go for one beer first, or maybe two.
MugiYeah, this is definitely a tonight, let's toast kind of night! I want to check out the clear and hazy beers, and drinking and hanging out while watching the taps in Kobe would be a blast.
