CRAFT Rainbow in Okayama updates tap list with Shimanami Brewery grapefruit sour
CRAFT Rainbow, a beer pub in Nodayacho, Okayama, posted a new tap list on July 6. The lineup includes Shimanami Brewery's GrapefruitsSour, several IPA-leaning beers, a domestic pilsner, and Suntory draft beer.
Hop BroToday’s tap update looks strong. CRAFT Rainbow in Okayama has six beers on July 6, and the range goes neatly from light and easy to full-on hoppy.
MugiWhat! Six beers on tap already sounds dangerous for my decision-making. What are they pouring?
Hop BroThe eye-catcher is Shimanami Brewery’s GrapefruitsSour. It brings a grapefruit-like tartness, so it feels perfect as a first glass on a hot day.
MugiOooh, grapefruit sour already sounds ridiculously drinkable. Is this the kind that tastes friendly and then quietly deletes your legs?
Hop BroYou still need to respect it. Then there’s Isekadoya Beer’s LushHopIPA, which leans into hop aroma with character that comes from dry hopping.
MugiHold on, comes from dry hopping sounds like a wizard spell. That’s not some sport where brewers throw hops, right?
Hop BroIf it were a sport, I’d enter. Basically it’s an aroma-building step that boosts bright citrusy scent without pushing the bitterness too hard.
MugiOkay, that makes sense! And if they also have `wcb`’s StarWatcher, plus Fermentary’s Gpepee and Pilsner, that means sour, IPA, saison, and pilsner all in one stop.
Hop BroExactly, and the best part is the easy-to-choose lineup. It’s non-smoking inside with a separate smoking area, opens at 3 p.m. from Friday to Monday, and runs until midnight.
MugiThat is dangerously convenient. If I can drink by mood, I want the sour first, the IPA next, and a pilsner to finish.
Hop BroThat order is solid. They also stock sake and shochu, but today I’m in a follow-the-taps mood and want to focus on the beer list.
MugiSame here. My brain is already at a bar in Okayama. I seriously want to head to CRAFT Rainbow and raise a glass right now.
