Beer&Cafe Hafen in Esaka lists Nekojima and current taps
Beer&Cafe Hafen, a beer pub in Esaka, Osaka, shared its latest tap list. The current lineup features Isekadoya Beer’s Nekojima, MARCA’s COFFEE AMBER, and Hansharo Beer’s Seseragi Mojito ALE, with Minoh Beer, Brown Ale, and Natur queued up next.
Hop BroThere’s a good one out of Esaka today: Beer&Cafe Hafen just posted its latest tap list, and the current three kegs are a strong lineup.
MugiWhat! In Esaka? Those three taps better be worth the drama, so who’s pouring right now?
Hop BroOn pour now are Isekadoya Beer’s 'Nekojima,' MARCA’s 'COFFEE AMBER,' and Hansharo Beer’s 'Seseragi Mojito ALE' as the current tap trio.
MugiThat name is adorable, but Hazy Double IPA suddenly sounds like it lifts weights. What kind of beer is that?
Hop BroIt’s that soft, cloudy, hop-forward style, and Nekojima layers yuzu, citrus, mango into a juicy aroma with a rounded finish.
MugiOkay, that sounds great... but MARCA’s coffee one says light-roast beans soaked into the beer? Is this breakfast now?
Hop BroThat’s the fun part. It’s basically a coffee infusion using Ethiopian beans from a Wakayama roaster, balancing iced-coffee-like notes with amber ale malt.
MugiCoffee infu-what? Coffee infusion means 'you made the beer smell amazing with coffee' in normal-person language, right?
Hop BroExactly, more or less a flavor-steeping method. And with Seseragi Mojito ALE in the mix, it’s the kind of lineup that makes a 'come cool down' invite feel very convincing.
MugiThere’s a mojito ale too? The tasting comparison is already built in, and before Minoh Beer, Brown Ale, and Natur even arrive, I want a glass right now.
Hop BroHafen’s the kind of small beer pub where you can pair pints with food, so I want to go now and line up all three as half pours.

It is described as a beer that balances iced-coffee-like character with a light body. With three distinct beers on tap, the current lineup shows the range that regulars look for at Hafen.
