Hop BroBeer House Hobbit in Hirakata, Osaka is looking seriously good today. Their June 27 update shows a six-tap lineup on draft.
MugiWait, a six-tap lineup? That is exactly the kind of menu that makes me panic in a good way! And two are brand-new, right?
Hop BroExactly. The fresh pours are Twin Peaks Mountain Brewing's Dr. Weizen and Hirakata Beer's Session Citra White.
MugiThat name already has power, but what is a weizen? Is this beer about to give me a lecture?
Hop BroIt's a German-style wheat beer, and the yeast tends to create banana esters. This one sounds fruity, soft, and really easygoing.
MugiHold on, banana esters? Why did this suddenly become science class? There is no actual banana in it, right?
Hop BroThat is the fun part. No banana added at all, but fermentation creates that impression, and the wheat softness makes the sweet malt feel extra gentle.
MugiWhoa, then comparing it with Twin Peaks Mountain Brewing's Dr. Pilsner would be fun. Same brewery, completely different personality!
Hop BroExactly. With hazy IPA, white ale, and even raspberry beer in the mix, it is a choose-your-mood lineup. I'd want to make a full lap of the taps.
MugiAnd the food sounds strong too, right? That absurdly long dish name for the eggplant steak is making me thirsty just trying to say it!
Hop BroAdd the rich tomato sauce, clay-pot sea bream rice, and seasonal tempura, and it turns into a beer-and-food ping-pong kind of day. I want a glass already.
MugiI'm sold. I'm starting with Dr. Weizen for sure. Soft mouthfeel and that banana note? I want it right now!
Beer House Hobbit is a beer pub in Kawaramachi, Hirakata, Osaka. In its June 27 Instagram post, the bar introduced a six-beer draft lineup for the day, with Dr. Weizen and Session Citra White highlighted as the new taps.
Featured Beer
`Dr. Weizen` comes from Twin Peaks Mountain Brewing. The post describes it as a fruity weizen with banana notes, a gentle mouthfeel, and the soft malt sweetness that comes from wheat. It is the kind of beer that should satisfy drinkers looking for a classic, easygoing weizen.
Draft Lineup
- `Hazy IPA#09Zibi` / Kumazawa Brewery (Shonan Beer)
- `Dr. Pilsner` / Twin Peaks Mountain Brewing
- `Dr. Weizen` / Twin Peaks Mountain Brewing
- `Session Citra White` / Hirakata Beer
- `Double Fuurin` / Ushitora Brewery
- `Raspberry Pink` / Iwategura Beer
The range runs from hazy IPA and pilsner to weizen, white ale, and raspberry-forward beer, making it easy to choose a glass based on mood. With two Twin Peaks Mountain Brewing beers on tap, the lineup also invites a side-by-side look at how the brewery handles pilsner and weizen.
Food Pairings
The food menu is equally specific: a grilled eggplant steak made with Italian Melanzane Bistacca and a rich tomato sauce, takikomi gohan with sea bream, a farm-vegetable plate, assorted seasonal tempura, and a spicy stir-fry of chicken thigh, nagaimo, and okra. On a day like this, the back-and-forth between beer and food looks like a natural part of the experience.
