ALE HOUSE Kamiya to host NAMACHA Brewing tap takeover with six beers
ALE HOUSE Kamiya, a beer pub in Osaka’s Doyama area, will host a tap takeover from NAMACHA Brewing on June 21. Six beers will be tapped, including the nitro-served Rauchbier, a real ale red ale, and the peppery “Yamitsuki Ale Mapo.”
Hop BroI want to talk about Kamiiya's TTO today. On June 21, ALE HOUSE 加美屋 in Higashi-Umeda is hosting Tokyo's NAMACHAん Brewing for a six-beer tap takeover.
MugiWhat! Six beers at once sounds like a full-on festival! A Tokyo brewery coming to Osaka is already making me excited!
Hop BroThe fun part is how they're serving them too. The popular Raoho is coming as a nitro pour, and Tokusei Red Ale will be served as real ale.
MugiWhat is that! Nitro pour suddenly sounds like science class. How does it actually taste different?
Hop BroIn simple terms, nitrogen makes the foam super silky. Instead of sharp fizz, you get a smoother, creamier texture in the mouth.
MugiNo way! So Raoho turns into a drinkable cloud? That name already sounds like it should be drifting around with smoke effects!
Hop BroThat's pretty close, yeah. And Tokusei Red Ale as real ale service means softer natural carbonation and a gentler cask-like drinking feel.
MugiHold on, Yamitsuki Ale Mapo is an outrageous name in the best way. Green sansho and chili in a beer sounds like the beer is attacking me first!
Hop BroThat's the playful part, but the aroma design is serious too. It sounds like a bold beer built around aroma and spicy nuance from green sansho and chili.
MugiAnd the venue being basement level in Higashi-Umeda is perfect for a post-work dash! If it starts at 4 p.m., I want to get there early and scout the tap list.
Hop BroThe other three beers still being a surprise is part of the appeal. An early arrival is the move if you want to compare everything and catch NAMACHAん Brewing's range.
MugiI'm done for, my throat reacted just imagining it. On June 21, I seriously want to raise a glass at Kamiiya and work my way from Raoho to the Mapo ale!
ALE HOUSE Kamiya, a beer pub in Osaka’s Umeda area, is set to host a tap takeover featuring NAMACHA Brewing on June 21, from 16:00 to 22:00. The event will pour six beers from the Tokyo brewery, giving regulars and visitors a focused look at the brewery’s lineup.
Among the announced highlights, "Rauchbier" will be served on nitro, while "Special Red Ale" will be poured as a real ale. The lineup also includes "Yamitsuki Ale Mapo," a beer brewed with green sansho pepper and chili peppers, signaling a more adventurous flavor profile for drinkers who want something beyond the usual hop-led profile.
NAMACHA Brewing, based in Tokyo’s Otsuka district, is known for beers that mix classic beer character with playful ideas. This tap takeover appears to follow that approach: one part technical serving method, one part flavor-driven experimentation. With six taps in play, the event should offer a mix of styles and textures rather than a single narrow theme.
The venue itself is part of the appeal. ALE HOUSE Kamiya is a basement beer pub in central Osaka, the kind of place where a tap takeover feels especially natural. Its location makes it easy to drop in for a focused beer session, and events like this are a good chance to try limited pours that may not appear on the regular lineup.
