Hop BroBeer&Cafe Hafen in Esaka has updated its tap list. This time they’ve got Oyamag Beer’s amber lager, HINO BREWING’s Screwdriver, and even NOM CRAFT BREWING’s Tengu Groove, so there’s a lot to look at.
MugiWhoa! Just hearing that there are two new taps makes me excited! But is an amber lager the kind with the pretty color? That name sounds kind of tricky!
Hop BroExactly, it’s an amber-colored lager. Oyamag Beer’s American Amber Lager has lager-like crispness, plus the citrusy aroma of US hops and malt richness, so it’s the kind of beer with a nice balance between flavor and aroma.
MugiWhat even are US hops?! And when you say citrusy aroma, does that mean lemony? Now I’m already hungry before even drinking it!
Hop BroYeah, that’s more or less the idea. HINO BREWING’s Screwdriver is juicy with restrained bitterness, so it works well as an early drink, and it seems like it would pair nicely with appetizers, salads with house dressing, and duck ham.
MugiNice! A beer that goes with appetizers is friendly even for people who want to start with food right away. Also, the name Screwdriver sounds a little strong, like a cocktail!
Hop BroThat’s part of what makes it interesting. NOM CRAFT BREWING’s Tengu Groove, or Tengu Groove, is also on the list, and even the name is full of personality. Having a beer like that really changes the feel of the taps.
MugiI see. And with beer, if it’s all new stuff, you can get lost, so it’s nice to have the comfort of regular beers too! Having Black Label and draft Guinness suddenly makes it feel more approachable.
Hop BroExactly. With Black Label and Guinness, it doesn’t feel too craft-heavy, so it’s easy to walk in. And the next lineup includes Shonan Gold, Isekadoya Beer’s Mugi no Manimani, Nikukyuu IPA, and HINO BREWING’s Gold Ban!, so the changing taps are part of the fun too.
MugiWhoa, there are way too many things I want to try next! If the next candidates are this good, that’s a reason to keep coming back. Taking it slow and facing each drink one by one in Esaka feels kind of grown-up, and I like that!
Hop BroAnd since Beer&Cafe Hafen is a small beer pub, it’s definitely one to remember as a place where you can drink in a relaxed setting. With reservations required for groups of three or more, let’s make sure to secure a table next time and start with the amber lager.
MugiLet’s go! If we can start with the first drink as Screwdriver, move to the amber lager for the second, and finish with Guinness, that would be perfect. I already really want to go out for drinks today!
