Eni-Bru opens Green Magic, lines up a Sept. 6 SHIMANAMI x Kankiku special event
On August 21, Eni-Bru in Nakamozu highlighted Nomcraft Brewing's hazy IPA Green Magic and posted a Friday tap update. The pub also previewed a September 6 special event pairing SHIMANAMI BREWERY with Kankiku BREWERY.
Hop BroTonight's headline is Green Magic on tap, and it's a good one. Eni-Bru in Nakamozu, Osaka just tapped Nomcraft Brewing's hazy IPA, and that really sounds like a Friday first pint.
MugiWait, hazy IPA already sounds fluffy! Does it really look and taste that different from a regular IPA?
Hop BroPretty different, yeah. The big appeal is juicy hop aroma, with the bitterness kept from feeling too sharp, and that's exactly what makes Green Magic sound promising.
MugiWhoa, so it's basically drinkable fruit and now my brain is confused! Don't show up acting like breakfast when you're actually beer!
Hop BroFair concern, but Eni-Bru makes it easy. They have 13 taps and 100 bottles, they're two minutes from Nakamozu Station, and the counter-focused setup makes side-by-side tasting feel relaxed.
MugiWhat is this, station-side paradise? If it's counter seating, I can go solo without having to make my face look 'beer expert approved'!
Hop BroAnd the tap list has range. DAYLONG, Many Hands, One Coast, Southern Pils, SMOOTH DARK LAGER, and even Kinne Pale Ale SP in real ale version are on there.
MugiHold on, real ale means what exactly? Are there fake ales out there too, or is my brain just hosting a committee meeting again?
Hop BroSimple version: it's served to highlight natural carbonation and a softer texture. So think gentle mouthfeel, the kind of beer that sinks in smoothly instead of shouting at you.
MugiNice! And on September 6 there's a special collab event, right? SHIMANAMI BREWERY and Kankiku BREWERY together suddenly makes this feel like a mini festival.
Hop BroExactly. Double Tap Jack at eni-bru SiblingShowdown! is set to pour SHIMANAMI's Strike Pilsner and Revenge of Lager 01 Smoke Lager, plus Kankiku's RICE ALE and 99HOPPY LAGER. With first-come free entry, that's dangerously easy to want.
MugiThat's it, I need a pint. Start with Green Magic now, then go back on September 6 and turn the tasting into full-scale homework!
Friday taps
On August 21, Eni-Bru in Nakamozu, Sakai, highlighted Nomcraft Brewing's hazy IPA Green Magic alongside its Friday-night service notice. The pub is a 2-minute walk from Nakamozu Station and, as a craft-beer dining room, offers 13 draft lines, 100 bottled beers, and a counter-friendly layout that makes a quick stop or a longer session equally easy.
What is on tap
The draft list for the day includes DAYLONG from Nara Brewing, Many Hands, One Coast from PAINT PALETTE BREWING / Eni-Bru / Hibinobia, Daily Loop from FARMENTRY, Southern Pils from Nagisa Beer, SMOOTH DARK LAGER from CHORYO Craft Beer, Keller from Wolfbrau, 金鬼ペールエールSP リアルエールver. from Onibetsu, and Orion The Draft from Orion Beer. The range runs from pilsner to IPA and dark lager, making it a good spot for tasting across styles.
September 6 event
The post also points to a September 6 pop-up, Double Tap Jack at eni-bru SiblingShowdown!, pairing SHIMANAMI BREWERY with Kankiku BREWERY. Entry is first come, free to come and go, and the lineup is built for side-by-side comparisons, including Striike Pilsner and Lager no Gyakushu 01 Smokey Lager on the SHIMANAMI side, plus RICE ALE and 99HOPPY LAGER from Kankiku. It is very much in Eni-Bru's lane: a beer bar that works for an after-work pint and for event-driven visits alike.
