The Beer Shop Hirakata city in Hirakata, Osaka, has released additional information for its "Craft Bank Brewery Feature!" on Saturday, May 23.

Hop BroThe Beer Shop Hirakata city in Hirakata is putting together a special event for May 23. Primary Barrels from Fukuchiyama is joining too, so it sounds like you’ll be able to enjoy both draft and canned beer.
MugiWait, served on draft and in cans? That’s irresistible for anyone who loves tasting side by side! And the brewer is coming too? That feels really close.
Hop BroExactly, and the draft lineup even includes Kuro Label plus West Coast Brewing’s Starwatcher. From staples to more aggressive choices, the range is really wide.
MugiStarwatcher sounds cosmic from the name alone, but what makes West Coast Brewing different? I can already tell it probably has some serious hop energy!
Hop BroGood catch. They’re especially strong in styles where the character of the hops stands out, bringing aroma and bitterness to the forefront. That’s why the first sip often makes you go, ‘Oh.’
MugiI see, so Hirakata Beer’s Session Citra White sounds like a gentler, more aromatic style? Just the name already makes it seem easy to drink!
Hop BroExactly. Session means light and easygoing, Citra brings citrusy hops, and White adds wheat character, so it tends to come together as light and refreshing. It’s a good one for craft beer beginners too.
MugiWhoa, I’m also curious about Craft Beer Base’s Mix Juicy! A juicy IPA sounds almost like juice, but is it still really beer?
Hop BroIt is, and that’s the fun of it. It’s designed to deliver rich hop aroma without making the bitterness too sharp, so it can even feel fruity. And having Mr. Tatara come from the evening is a big deal too.
MugiAnd there’s a garapon for every 2,000 yen spent too? A garapon challenge as well? Drinking is fun, spinning is fun, this is packed with stuff!
Hop BroMay 23 in Hirakata is going to be a day like a treasure chest of beer tasting. This is the kind of day when you want to check it out from opening and toast with your first pint.
MugiYeah, I’m totally feeling that too! I want to mark it with a red circle on my calendar as the day I most want to drink!
