café&beer Arca-Archa in Namba updates its 9-tap lineup with 13 Red Ale and PUNK IPA
The beer pub café&beer あるか→アるか in Osaka’s Namba area posted its latest 9-tap lineup on Instagram. The selection is led by the collaboration beer 13 Red Ale, alongside herb-driven golden ale, sake ale, sour, stout, PUNK IPA, and Heartland.
Hop BroNamba’s café&beer Aruka just rolled out a 9-tap refresh. It’s centered on Osaka breweries, and the range is seriously wide.
MugiWait, a 9-tap lineup? So it’s not just IPA overload, right? Is there stuff a craft beer beginner can actually enjoy?
Hop BroDefinitely. The headliner is the house collab 13 Red Ale, a Session Red IPA brewed with Ones Brewery. It has a reddish body, but it doesn’t drink heavy at all.
MugiWhat is that! Session Red IPA sounds intense, so how is it also easy to drink?!
Hop Bro“Session” means it’s designed to be lower in booze feel and easier to keep drinking. So just think of it as an easygoing red IPA and you’re good.
MugiOooh! Then even I could handle that. And they’ve got a herbal golden ale from CRAFT BEER BASE too? That sounds way too stylish.
Hop BroThat’s Lavender&Chamomile. The lavender and chamomile lift the aroma, so it leaves a floral kind of finish. It’s like a beer pub suddenly turning into an herb garden.
MugiThat explanation went full farmland! But there’s Sake Ale and Awaawa Sour too? These names alone are already pulling me in!
Hop BroThe Sake Ale from Banrishun Shuzo has a sake-like nuance, Kamigata Bakushu’s Awaawa Sour brings a bright tart snap, and Minoh Beer’s STOUT is built for a strong finish. Then they throw in BrewDog’s PUNK IPA and Heartland too, so nothing’s missing.
MugiHold on, from sour to stout, and even a Heartland pilsner at the end? You walk in for one drink and suddenly it becomes a full tasting marathon!
Hop BroAnd every day from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. they’ve got happy hour. This has “I’ll just stop by for one” written all over it, except it absolutely won’t end at one.
MugiThat settles it. Meet in Ura-Namba and we start with 13 Red Ale! I’m making it all the way to the stout at the end.
The beer pub café&beer あるか→アるか in Osaka’s Namba area shared its June 21 tap lineup on Instagram. The lineup features nine beers, with a strong focus on Osaka breweries and a range that moves from session-strength beers to darker styles and a classic pilsner.
The anchor of the list is "13 Red Ale / Session Red IPA," a collaboration with Wons Brewery. It is joined by CRAFT BEER BASE’s "Lavender&Chamomile / Golden Ale with herbs" and "BLONDE," Manri Shun Shuzo’s "Sake Ale," MARCA BREWING’s "TRIPEL IPA," Kamigata Bakushu’s "Sour," and Minoh Beer’s "STOUT." Together, they make for a lineup that invites side-by-side tasting of local character.
The imported slot goes to BrewDog’s "PUNK IPA / IPA," while Kirin’s "Heartland / Pilsner" rounds out the board. That means the selection spans hop-forward IPA, herb-infused golden ale, sour, stout, and a clean pilsner, giving drinkers a broad range to choose from.
Located in Ura-Namba, the venue positions itself as a craft beer and food spot. Its official site also highlights a daily happy hour from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m., making it an easy stop for a quick pint as well as a longer meal-and-beer session.
