YELLOW APE CRAFT in Osaka highlights four guest beers, led by Tege Remofuru
The Osaka beer pub YELLOW APE CRAFT shared its tap lineup on Instagram, featuring `Tege Remofuru`, `GO SMALL WAVE`, `O-Sake Man IPA`, and `Bank IPA`. The post also points to the venue’s beer-focused course menus and drink-all-you-can options.
Hop BroToday’s topic is the four guest beers just tapped at YELLOW APE CRAFT in Imabashi, Osaka. The lineup alone makes you want a glass in your hand.
MugiWhat! Tege Lemofuru already sounds delicious. Is it like lemon coming in at full speed?
Hop BroGood catch. Teg e Lemofuru is a collab between YELLOW APE CRAFT and Miyazaki Hideji Beer, and that’s the fun of a collaboration beer: the pub’s character and the brewer’s style fuse together.
MugiWhat is that! A collaboration beer sounds like an idol unit from the beer world, and now I want to stan it.
Hop BroHonestly, not a bad comparison. They’ve also got "GO SMALL WAVE~Konna Nami, Butterfly de Yoyubai~," brewed with APE BREWING. A name like that makes you expect a strong hop profile right away.
MugiHold on, hop profile? Since when do hops have a side profile? Are we talking sharp eyebrows and a serious gaze?
Hop BroThat would be impressive, but no. A hop profile means the bitterness and aroma show up clearly. This tap list also includes Reflectory Brewing’s "Osakeman IPA" and Craft Bank’s "Bank IPA," so it’s an IPA-heavy lineup overall.
MugiOhhh! An IPA-heavy lineup means you can compare not just bitterness, but aroma too. So the fun goes way beyond the names.
Hop BroExactly. And the food works with it too: assorted appetizers, jerk chicken, even the pasta of the day. The post also mentions a full craft beer all-you-can-drink course for 6,000 yen, which feels built for a serious beer night.
MugiWait, full craft beer all-you-can-drink with food? That’s unfairly good. It works for a quick small-group stop or a full-on drinking session.
Hop BroThey’re open Tuesday through Saturday from 3:00 p.m. to 12:30 a.m., and checking the day’s taps is part of the charm. This definitely goes on the tonight’s first pint list.
MugiDone. I want to start with Tege Lemofuru first, then compare it with Osakeman IPA. Just talking about this has my throat asking for beer already.
YELLOW APE CRAFT, located at Imabashi 2-4-9 in Osaka, is a beer pub open from Tuesday to Saturday, 15:00 to 24:30. On its website, the bar keeps an up-to-date "Today's Craft Beer" list, making it a convenient stop for trying guest beers alongside food.
In the Instagram post, the shop highlighted four beers:
- `Tege Remofuru` / `YELLOW APE CRAFT × Miyazaki Hideji Beer`
- `GO SMALL WAVE~This kind of wave, I can handle with butterfly~` / `YELLOW APE CRAFT × APE BREWING`
- `O-Sake Man IPA` / `Hansharo Beer`
- `Bank IPA` / `Craft Bank`
The lineup leans toward IPAs and collaboration beers, so drinkers can compare hop character and balance across styles. The venue’s tap approach mixes regular and limited releases, which makes it easy to choose a different glass with each round.
Food options are also beer-friendly: assorted starters, a chef’s seasonal salad, fried snacks, anchovy-and-cheese crostini, jerk chicken, and the pasta of the day. The post also notes two drink packages: 6,000 yen for all craft beers on tap and 5,000 yen for 10 selected craft beers. That makes the pub a practical choice for a quick stop or a longer beer-focused night out.
