Osaka’s umbrella opens at 6 p.m. on Aug. 8 with five draft beers
Umbrella, a beer pub in Sonezaki, Osaka, announced a 6 p.m. opening on Saturday, August 8. The post listed five draft beers for the day, including a Hazy IPA, a Fruit Ale, a Gose, Draught Guinness, and Kirin Lager.
Hop BroOsaka’s beer pub umbrella in Sonezaki is opening today at 6 PM on August 8, and the five beers on tap are a very solid lineup.
MugiWhat! A basement beer pub already sounds cool, and then they hit us with five beers on tap today? I’m undecided before I even sit down!
Hop BroHere’s the fun part: Two Rabbits Brewing’s Doctor Hopsum is a Hazy IPA, so it’s hop-forward but still juicy and approachable.
MugiOoh! But Hazy IPA sounds like a foggy weather report. I still can’t picture what that tastes like!
Hop BroHazy usually means cloudiness from hops, and instead of just sharp bitterness, you often get fruity aroma and a softer mouthfeel.
MugiOkay, got it! So it’s not a bitter training beer, it’s more like a dreamy aroma bomb!
Hop BroExactly. And Egre Brewery x umbrella’s Ichigo Ichie is a collab Fruit Ale, so it should really lean into that strawberry character.
MugiNo way! Ichigo Ichie is a pun and a beer name and somehow still sounds delicious. That’s unfair in the best way!
Hop BroThen there’s Minoh Beer’s Plum Gose, which is a fun one. The charm is the balance of tartness and salinity, with plum layered on top.
MugiHold on, what is Gose!? The second you said salt in beer, my brain started ordering edamame!
Hop BroGose is a style with gentle salinity and bright acidity, so it stays light and refreshing. Add Draught Guinness and Kirin Lager, and you’ve got a wide-ranging tap list.
MugiA hidden basement spot with both counter and table seats, plus beers for casual stops or small groups... this sounds perfect for an after-work pint. I want to go now!
Hop BroThey even nodded to World Cat Day, but the real star is the tap list itself. This is the kind of night for a tasting flight.
MugiSettled then! Start with the hazy, move to the strawberry ale, finish with the gose... I want to drink them all now!
