Hop BroToday's topic is the hot 9-tap lineup in Osaka's Ura-Namba. café&beer Aruka→Aruka has released its draft beers for April 13, and it balances local character with familiar classics.
MugiWhoa, nine beers! Just hearing that the lineup has been revealed gets me excited. What beers are on it?
Hop BroThe core is a lineup with a strong Osaka feel. For example, 13 Red Ale is a collaboration between Aruka→Aruka and ONEs Brewery, and the Session Red IPA is designed with drinkability in mind.
MugiSession? What does that even mean! An easy-drinking IPA? When I hear IPA, I picture something super bitter!
Hop BroPut simply, it's a light, easygoing IPA. It still gives you plenty of hop aroma, but keeps the alcohol presence and heaviness down, so you can compare a few without getting worn out.
MugiOhhh! Then that herbal golden one sounds interesting too. Lavender & Chamomile feels kind of like a flower shop, which is stylish!
Hop BroThat's one of the fun parts. It also includes distinctive beers like Chiran Aracha Golden Ale and KAMOSHI -, which use tea leaves and kelp. I like how a Japanese nuance peeks through even in beer.
MugiKelp too!? Sake Lager with Kelp sounds like some kind of mashup between an izakaya and a brewery!
Hop BroNot a mashup, a design choice. The goal is to add umami and sharpen the profile, and when it's lined up next to dark styles like Black IPA and STOUT, the range in one place is really fun.
MugiAnd they even have PUNK IPA and Heartland. That's almost unfair! It's the kind of place where both beer nerds and beginners can't decide what to drink.
Hop BroExactly, and the food is also built to pair with beer, with smoked edamame, fried cartilage, and liver pate on the menu. It's a place that really understands drinkers.
MugiI can't take it anymore, I'm completely hungry! I want to sample beers in Ura-Namba while trying all the snacks too. I want to go right now and figure out my first pint!
Hop BroYeah, this is the kind of place you'd want to make your first stop tonight. Start with something light, and before long you can imagine yourself working through the local drafts one by one.
MugiIt's settled! Let's make tonight a beer day and enjoy everything from the first sip to the last dish!
