Hop BroCRAFT Rainbow in Nodayacho, Kita Ward, Okayama City posted today's tap information in a March 22 update. It's fun how they lean into craft beers and then finish with Suntory Draft too.
MugiWait, a five-tap lineup and it even includes draft beer, not just craft? That's already the kind of place that makes choosing fun.
Hop BroThe lineup is Hansharo Beer's MelonWeizen & Melon, Onidensetsu's Kinoni Pale Ale, BTB's Prayfor3.11, Shiroyama Beer's Sakurajima Small Mikan White, and Suntory Draft.
MugiHold on, what is MelonWeizen? Does that mean there's melon in it? My brain is mixing dessert and beer right now!
Hop BroSimply put, a Weizen is a fruity wheat-style beer, and this one layers in aromas meant to evoke melon. It's the kind of beer that feels light on the palate and gets fun from the aroma first.
MugiI see, so how is that different from Onidensetsu's Kinoni Pale Ale? That name sounds so strong I feel like an oni might come after me.
Hop BroPale ale is a classic style that makes hop aroma easy to enjoy, with a balance between bitterness and aroma as its appeal. Since you can also see IPA and Belgian White style labels here, today's lineup covers a pretty wide range of aromas.
MugiWow, so the breadth of aromas matters that much! Being able to compare fruity notes and bitterness all at once sounds like a tasting session, which is exciting!
Hop BroAnd Shiroyama Beer's Sakurajima Small Mikan White is a great addition. When citrus notes come through, they add a lot of familiarity to the gentle character of a white beer.
MugiAnd the fact that the place is non-smoking is reassuring too, for people who want to relax and drink for a while. It's really nice that you can just drop by on a weekday evening!
Hop BroThe hours are convenient too, with Friday through Monday opening at 3:00 p.m. and Tuesday through Thursday starting at 5:00 p.m. In the Okayama Station area, it's one place that really makes you want to seriously debate where to start.
MugiAll right, I'm starting with a wheat-style beer! Hop, let's raise a glass at CRAFT Rainbow today and enjoy all the aroma and bitterness together!
