Hathor posts Jukusen and First Lager on its 7/9 draft list
CraftBeerSpot Hathor in Osaka’s Kyobashi area published a 7/9 draft lineup featuring Jukusen, First Lager, a yuzu ale, and a barrel-aged stout across 16 taps, alongside the pub’s house-smoked food.
Hop BroThe July 9 lineup at Hathor's 16 taps in Kyobashi, Osaka is seriously stacked. It runs from Jukusen to First Lager, a yuzu beer, and even a barrel-aged stout with a really clean flow.
MugiWhat! So it's basically a full drinking route already planned out? That sounds like the kind of place where you toast first and think later!
Hop BroExactly. Asahi's Jukusen has long-aged depth, and they use three hop varieties in stages, so the aroma builds in a really elegant way.
MugiWhoa, okay! But on Shimanami Brewery's First Lager, 100% Saaz hops sounds like a spell from a beer wizard.
Hop BroSaaz is a hop known for soft, refined aroma. Then they pair it with rice from Fukuyama City in Hiroshima to aim for a first-pint finish that's crisp and easy to drink.
MugiGot it, so it's a smooth opener! And if Ushitora Brewery has a yuzu golden ale, I can already see myself demolishing smoked snacks with it.
Hop Bro"Totonoimashita! Yuzucchi" uses yuzu from Ashikaga, and the sweet-tart balance is really dialed in. It's basically made for food pairing, so Hathor's house-smoked dishes should fit perfectly.
MugiNo way! Then Firestone Walker's barrel-aged stout at the end is basically the final boss, right?
Hop BroThat's a fair comparison. Velvet Merlin 2017 is a bourbon barrel-aged oatmeal stout with vanilla mocha layers and that silky texture oatmeal can bring. This is where I start talking too much.
MugiI'm sold. Start with First Lager, reset with the yuzu beer, and finish by sinking into that stout. I absolutely want to go to Hathor and drink this lineup now.
CraftBeerSpot Hathor, a beer pub in Osaka’s Kyobashi area with 16 taps and house-smoked food, posted its 7/9 draft list. The lineup spans lager, white beer, ale, fruit beer, IPA, and dark beer, giving drinkers an easy path from a clean first pour to a richer finish.
#### Featured pours
- Jukusen / Asahi Beer
A premium lager brewed with carefully selected ingredients and extended maturation for a deeper aroma and flavor.
- First Lager / Shimanami Brewery
Positioned as a beer for the first glass of the night, it uses 100% Saaz hops and rice from Fuchu, Hiroshima for a lighter, crisp drink. The article also notes that it is based on First Down, a beer developed by brewer Matsuoka during his Yatsugatake Brewery days.
- Totonoimashita! Yuzucchi / Ushitora Brewery
A golden-ale-based yuzu beer made with yuzu from Ashikaga. It is balanced to work well as a food-pairing beer.
- Velvet Merkin 2017 / Firestone Walker
A bourbon-barrel-aged oatmeal stout. The article describes it as a version of Velvet Merlin, with vanilla, coconut, mocha, and other layered notes.
#### More on tap
Helles / Shonan Beer, UME-CHU / Minoh Beer × Mikkeller Tokyo, Pale Ale Real Ale ver / Minoh Beer, Sage / Falo Brewing × Karakuri, Double C DDH DIPA / Isekadoya Beer × Teenage, Another Cut / Isekadoya Beer × Vertere, Broken Record / Embolden Beer Co, and Milk Stout Nitro ver / Left Hand are also listed.
Two standout descriptions mention style details: Another Cut is a Strata-driven hazy IPA, while Broken Record leans West Coast with citrus and fruit character from Nelson and Mosaic. With crisp lagers, fruit-forward beers, IPAs, and a dark, barrel-aged option in one place, Hathor’s tap list looks built for a full drinking session, especially with smoked snacks on the side.
