CRAFT Rainbow in Okayama updates its tap list with five beers
The Okayama brewpub CRAFT Rainbow shared a new tap update on August 18. The lineup features five craft beers alongside Japanese sake and shochu, with a non-smoking interior and a separate smoking area.
Hop BroToday’s topic is CRAFT Rainbow in Nodaya-cho, Okayama. They updated their taps on August 18, and with five craft beers plus Sapporo Classic, that’s a list worth talking about.
MugiWhat! A tap update already makes me want to go. Does that basically mean the draft lineup changed?
Hop BroExactly. It means the keg lineup has rotated. This time they’ve got five craft beers: Mountain River’s “Horai Beer,” Craftrock’s “SmellsLikeSwanSpilits,” Y.Market’s “PurpleJetSky,” Hobukotan Brewing’s “inversion,” plus Sapporo Classic.
MugiNo way, Horai Beer already sounds intense. It looks like a spell from a fantasy game. Are we sure that’s actually beer?
Hop BroThat’s part of the fun. The article says individual styles aren’t listed, so we don’t get exact labels like IPA or pilsner. You pick by name, mood, and curiosity, which is very tap-list energy.
MugiWhoa, so “style unknown” means drink with imagination? Craft beer just turned into a literature class.
Hop BroAnd the place itself is well set up. There’s happy hour till 7pm on weekdays, they also serve sake and shochu, and it’s non-smoking with a separate smoking area. That helps if you really want to focus on aroma.
MugiThat rules! A non-smoking setup makes it so much easier to enjoy the beer properly, and it sounds comfortable even for a casual group night.
Hop BroAnother nice touch: they’ll keep showing Fagiano matches for the 26/27 season. Watching the game with a pint is exactly what a good beer pub should deliver.
MugiBeer plus sports is basically a weekend victory plan. And if they open at 3pm from Friday to Monday, that’s dangerously convenient.
Hop BroThey’re at Nodaya-cho 2-5-4-101, open 5pm to midnight Tuesday through Thursday, and 3pm to midnight Friday through Monday. With names like these, it’s a lineup that tempts blind picks.
MugiI’m sold. I want to choose my first pint, overthink the second, and probably end up wanting a taste of everything. CRAFT Rainbow sounds dangerously drinkable tonight.
