Hop BroThe story about Osaka's Sonezaki beer pub umbrella announcing five taps is pretty interesting. On Thursday, May 14, it opens at 6:00 p.m., but there is a private booking, so general entry starts around 9:30 p.m.
MugiWhat! Around 9:30 p.m. is pretty late! But that makes it sound like the kind of place you'd swing by after work and enjoy at your own pace.
Hop BroThe lineup includes Kind of Gold / Shiga Kogen Beer's IPA, and that's the one where you can really enjoy the hop aroma and bitterness. Craft beer fans will want to start there.
MugiIPA again! When you say hop aroma, are you talking about beer like it's perfume? This is suddenly getting fancy!
Hop BroExactly, the hops are the star of the aroma. And that's why Ichigoichie Fruit Ale is so fun too; it's a collaboration between Eigre Brewery and Umbrella, with a gentle burst of fruitiness.
MugiWhat is that! Ichigoichie sounds cute just from the name, and it's already a win before drinking it! A strawberry gathering is basically an delicious meetup, right!
Hop BroAnd it's great that there's Spring Lager / Minoh Beer's German Pilsner. Pilsners are clean and crisp, and their appeal is the clarity of the foam and the sharp finish.
MugiI get that pilsners are clean and crisp, but it somehow sounds like a "museum of water"! Still, being easy to drink is great.
Hop BroOn top of that, the lineup has the classics too, with Draft Guinness and Kirin Lager. It brings together craft character and reliable easy-drinking staples, so it's easy to build a session from the first pint to the last.
MugiThat's the best! And they even have an affordable beer ticket too, which is kind of unfair. Six drinks for 5,800 yen, valid for six months? That's super handy for a beer comparison night!
Hop BroYeah, it's in a spot that's easy to stop by in Umeda, and the nice thing is you can go craft-heavy or classic-heavy tonight. Reading it makes me want to have a pint myself.
MugiMe too! I want to compare beers tonight! If they have IPA and fruit ale on tap, it's definitely going to be a fun night like bar-hopping in one place!
The beer pub umbrella in Sonezaki, Kita Ward, Osaka, opens at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, May 14. In its post, the venue says it has a private booking that day, and that general entry will be possible from around 9:30 p.m.
Today's keg beers
- Kind of Gold / Shiga Kogen Beer (Nagano) IPA
- ★Ichigoichie / Eigre Brewery (Hyogo) × Umbrella (Osaka) Fruit Ale
- Spring Lager / Minoh Beer (Osaka) German Pilsner
- Draft Guinness (Ireland) Draught Guinness
- Kirin Lager / Kirin Beer (JP) Lager
Today's lineup brings together an IPA, a fruit ale, and a German pilsner, along with Guinness and Kirin Lager. It combines kegs that showcase the character of craft beer with dependable staples that are easy to drink, making it easy to build a session from the first pint to the last.
The post also mentions an "affordable beer ticket." It covers six drinks at the smallest size for craft beers, and at Basement Umbrella it can also be used for a Guinness pint. The price is 5,800 yen, valid for six months from the date of purchase, and available while supplies last.
The shop is in Osaka's Umeda area, making it an easy stop after work. On days when the specific beer names for all five kegs are listed, it sounds like a good chance to sample and compare styles while choosing what you like. Whether you want to focus on Guinness or go mainly for domestic craft beers, this was a service lineup that lets you enjoy both in the same night.
