PEDROLINO Brings Back Its Non-Alcoholic Drink Made with "Hizaki" and Refreshes Six Draft Beers
At the beer pub PEDROLINO in Osakajo-cho, Osaka, the basil and lime squash made with the non-alcoholic cocktail "Hizaki" has been brought back. The taps now feature six distinct beers, including FLORA FERMENTATION's "Golem."
Hop BroPEDROLINO in Osaka's Andoji-cho updated its Today’s Beers, and this time it includes a really interesting non-alcoholic option.
MugiWait, a beer pub bringing back a non-alcoholic drink? That kind of makes me curious!
Hop BroExactly. It’s a basil and lime squash made with homemade basil syrup and lime, plus Kyoto's Ikusei spirit Hizaki.
MugiHizaki? That sounds kind of intense! What do you mean by a non-alcoholic spirit?
Hop BroIt’s distilled mainly from yamatotachibana leaves, and its signature is a spicy citrus character. It’s handy as a palate cleanser between beers too.
MugiOhh! So even on a day when you don’t want much alcohol, you can still enjoy it as a drink with lots of aroma.
Hop BroThe top tap is FLORA FERMENTATION's Golem, a Czech-style pilsner at ABV 5.0%. And since it's almost gone, you can really see how seriously the shop is approaching this.
MugiJust hearing 'Czech-style' suddenly makes it sound really craft-savvy! But if it’s a pilsner, I’m happy because it should be easy to drink!
Hop BroOn top of that, there’s Shima Brewing's Sumiyaki MILD ALE, CHORYO's Hanami Gose, and even Winter Lambic by the glass, so the lineup covers everything from bright and easy to more mature flavors.
MugiWhat a lineup! It’s a total traffic jam of individuality. And they even have wine and herbal liqueurs too? That’s a full-on drinking adventure!
Hop BroPEDROLINO's appeal is that Italian food and drinks flow naturally together, and this time too, the shop's character shows through in the breadth of ways you can drink there.
MugiAll right, today I want to go from the basil and lime all the way to Golem! Just reading this is making my throat want a drink!
Hop BroExactly. This is the best time to check it out right after the update, and starting with the ones marked as almost gone is the move.
The beer pub PEDROLINO in Andoji-cho, Chuo Ward, Osaka, updated its "Today’s Beers" lineup in a post dated April 8, 2026. In addition to craft beer, the shop is built around wine, herbal liqueurs, and grappa, and this latest selection again shows just how broad its range is.
The first thing to note is the return of a non-alcoholic cocktail. The shop has put back into rotation a basil and lime squash made with homemade basil syrup and lime, combined with Hizaki, a distilled spirit from Kyoto's Ikusei. It is a non-alcoholic spirit distilled mainly from yamatotachibana leaves, and is said to be characterized by spicy citrus notes. It seems like an easy choice for refreshing the palate between beers.
