PUB Karr, the beer pub on Kyoto's Haramachi-Rokkaku, released its business info for April 21. It opens at 6:00 p.m., and the new arrival is FLORA FERMENTATION's 'Tayu.' Five beers, from craft selections to classics, are on tap, including a buckwheat porter made in collaboration with NUDE Beer.
Hop BroAt PUB Karr on Kyoto's Haramachi-Rokkaku, Tayu has been newly tapped. On April 21 it opens at 6:00 p.m., and the tap list is a pretty interesting one.
MugiWhoa! What is Tayu? The name alone feels soft and hazy, but it really makes me curious!
Hop BroIt's FLORA FERMENTATION's 'Tayu,' and it's a collaboration with NUDE Beer. What's more, it's a porter made with buckwheat, so it sounds like one that should balance a toasty aroma with a gentle mouthfeel.
MugiI get porter, but what's a buckwheat porter? Is it like the aroma of soba tea?
Hop BroPretty close. Porter is a style with the richness that comes from dark malts, so it's easy to think of it as a toasty dark beer. When buckwheat comes into play, it can add not just roastiness but also a lingering grain-like finish.
MugiOhh! So it's not just heavy, and it sounds like the flavor could evolve slowly as you drink!
Hop BroWhat's more, that day's taps are five beers, and I love the wide lineup. They have Kyoto Brewing's 'Orion,' Minoh's 'Black Session IPA,' Minoh's 'Saru-yama Shikao,' and even Asahi's 'Maruefu.'
MugiWait, they even have the classic Maruefu? Being able to choose based on your mood is pretty great!
Hop BroExactly. From the hop-forward Black Session IPA to distinctive craft beers and ending with a comforting staple, that's what makes it feel like PUB Karr. Drinking it in that record-bar atmosphere only makes it taste better.
MugiThen I want to start with 'Tayu'! It really feels like a night for tasting side by side, and a tap list like this in Kyoto is kind of unfair.
