Craft Beer Spot Hathor in Osaka’s Kyobashi district posted a two-keg update on Instagram. The new taps are Shiga Kogen Beer’s Snow Monkey IPA Orange Label and Arrogant Consortia [Stone]’s Arrogant Bastard Ale, alongside a 12-beer draft lineup and the pub’s smoked-food style.
Hop BroAt Craft Beer Spot Hathor in Kyobashi, they've got two fresh taps going on today.
MugiWhat, on a Monday? That's Hathor in full power already!
Hop BroThe headliners are Shiga Kogen Beer’s Snow Monkey IPA and Arrogant Consortia [Stone]’s Arrogant Bastard Ale.
MugiThat name alone sounds intense! Arrogant Bastard Ale sounds like it picked a fight with me!
Hop BroHere’s the thing, Snow Monkey IPA Orange Label is an IPA built around bright hop aroma, so the nose should really pop.
MugiI get IPA, but the list also said real ale ver. What is that, a spell?
Hop BroReal ale is, in simple terms, gentler cask carbonation, so you taste more malt and roast instead of just fizz.
MugiOhhh! So Minoh’s stout or Oni Densetsu’s pale ale could feel soft and mellow on draft?
Hop BroAnd Hathor’s strength is the setup: 16 taps, 12 draft beers that day, and house-smoked food to pair with them.
MugiLager, white ale, IPA, stout... that’s basically a tasting-flight paradise. Kyobashi is calling me.
Hop BroStart clean with Edel Pils, wander into DANK DANK DANK!! or KASUMI, then land on smoke and Bastard at the end. That’s a route.
MugiNo chance I’m resisting now. I already want to toast with Snow Monkey tonight!
