The Beer Shop Hirakata city announces July 8 taps led by Sapporo Black Label
The Beer Shop Hirakata city shared its draft lineup for July 8, led by Sapporo Black Label. The tap list also features beers from Asobi Brewery, Craft Beer Base, and Hirakata Beer, giving drinkers a chance to compare mainstream lager and local craft in one stop.
Hop BroToday's tap list at The Beer Shop Hirakata city is dangerously good, with five taps led by Black Label and a lineup that feels unfair in the best way.
MugiWait, at that spot connected to Hirakata-shi Station? Best after-work route ever, and starting with Black Label makes it so easy to jump in!
Hop BroExactly. The Beer Shop Hirakata city isn't just draft either; they carry 150 to 200 cans and bottles, so you can drink one there and take more home.
MugiWhoa, that's powerful! So what are the five beers for July 8?
Hop BroThey've got Sapporo Black Label, Asobi Beer from Kyoto with Yosano no Aooni, Craft Beer Base's Old School IPA and Lavender & Chamomile, plus Hirakata Beer pouring Session Citra White.
MugiHold on, what does session mean? It sounds like a meeting, but somehow delicious!
Hop BroHaha, in beer talk it usually means easy to keep drinking, not too heavy, so you can enjoy the citrusy Citra character and the soft white-beer feel without getting steamrolled.
MugiThat sounds amazing! So Old School IPA is basically full hop attack, right? The name sounds like it does deadlifts!
Hop BroMore or less. IPA puts hops front and center, and Old School suggests classic firm bitterness, while Lavender & Chamomile goes the other way with herbal nuance, which is a fun contrast.
MugiSo you start calm with Black Label, get playful with Aooni, then reset with herbs... that's a serious tasting strategy right there!
Hop BroAnd their post said Black Label was moving fast from exactly 6 p.m. the day before, so it has first beer credibility on lock. Mixing a major lager with local craft on the same day is this shop's real trick.
MugiMy throat reacted just hearing that... if it's station-connected, that's not a detour, that's the main route. Tonight I want all five in Hirakata.
The Beer Shop Hirakata city is a beer-focused pub and specialty shop directly connected to Keihan Hirakata-shi Station. Along with draft beer served on-site, it carries roughly 150 to 200 canned and bottled beers, so guests can either drink in or take beer home.
In a post dated July 7, the shop announced the draft lineup for Wednesday, July 8. The lead beer is Sapporo Black Label, and the post notes that the previous evening brought many guests from 6:00 p.m. onward, with Black Label pouring strongly through the night.
The day’s taps were:
- Sapporo Black Label
- Asobi Brewery (Kyoto) / Yosano no Aooni
- Craft Beer Base (Osaka) / Old School IPA
- Craft Beer Base (Osaka) / Lavender & Chamomile
- Hirakata Beer (Osaka) / Session Citra White
What makes the venue interesting is the range: an approachable mainstream lager on one hand, and hop-forward or botanically accented craft beers on the other. That mix makes it easy to compare styles in a single visit. Because the shop is station-adjacent, it works well for a quick stop after work, a tasting session, or a beer-shopping run.
For drinkers looking for a daily-changing draft list in Hirakata, this is the kind of place that rewards repeated visits.
