Umbrella in Osaka opens at 6 p.m. on June 25 with five beers on tap
The beer pub Umbrella in Osaka’s Kita Ward announced a 6 p.m. opening on Thursday, June 25. Today’s tap list includes five beers, from Shiga Kogen’s Kasumi to Draught Guinness and Kirin Lager, along with a beer ticket offer that can be used for Guinness pints downstairs.
Hop BroOsaka has a good one tonight: umbrella opens at 6 PM, and the five taps on today are seriously tempting.
MugiWait, a basement beer pub on a rainy night already feels like an adventure, and they still brought five taps?
Hop BroThe lineup is strong, with Kasumi as a Session Hazy IPA, plus Nagahama Roman's Setouchi Lemon Pilsner and Minoh's Black Tea Bitter.
MugiWhat is Session Hazy IPA even supposed to mean? That sounds like a spell a brewer casts over a kettle.
Hop BroClose enough, but low ABV, big aroma is the simple version: cloudy body, lots of hop character, and easy to keep drinking.
MugiOhhh! So Setouchi Lemon Pilsner is the bright zippy one, and the tea bitter is basically afternoon tea that learned to party?
Hop BroAlmost, but the tea-leaf finish makes that bitter lean English, and then the list swings wide by adding Draught Guinness and Kirin Lager too.
MugiHold on, Draught Guinness too? That tap list has the range of a playlist with jazz, punk, and karaoke.
Hop BroAnd there's a six-beer ticket: six smallest craft pours for 5,800 yen, valid for six months, and it even works on a Guinness pint.
MugiThat is dangerously reasonable... with a 10th anniversary party coming on July 11 and 12, I kind of want a preview run tonight.
Hop BroExactly, so start with tonight's five taps, dodge the June 28 closure, and gear up for the anniversary because now both of us want Kasumi first and Guinness after.
Umbrella opens at 6 p.m. today
Umbrella, a beer pub in Sonezaki, Kita Ward, Osaka, announced that it will open at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, June 25. The post thanked guests for a lively night of service the day before and reminded visitors to watch their step on the way in. With rain in the forecast, it is a practical note for anyone heading underground for a pint.
Five beers on tap
The day’s tap list covers a broad range of styles:
- Kasumi / Shiga Kogen Beer (Nagano) - Session Hazy IPA
- Setouchi Lemon Pilsner / Nagahama Roman Beer (Shiga) - Lemon Pilsner
- Tea Bitter / Minoh Beer (Osaka) - English Bitter w/ Tea
- Draught Guinness (Ireland)
- Kirin Lager / Kirin Beer (Japan) - Lager
It is a lineup that moves from hop-forward hazy beer to citrus-driven pilsner, tea-infused bitter, classic Guinness, and a familiar lager. For beer fans, it offers an easy comparison across styles rather than a single-direction tap list.
Beer ticket offer available
Umbrella is also selling a beer ticket set worth six smallest-size craft beers for 5,800 yen. The ticket is valid for six months from purchase, and sales end once they are gone. The post also notes that the basement area can use the ticket for Guinness pints, making it useful for regulars who already have a favorite pour.
Upcoming schedule
The post adds two upcoming notes: closed on Sunday, June 28, and Umbrella RiB’s 10th anniversary party on Saturday, July 11, and Sunday, July 12. For drinkers in central Osaka, it is a useful update on both today’s taps and the bar’s near-term schedule.
