Hop BroThe Uji beer pub Beer Tsukasa put out its March 24 business info. Even when the printer is grumpy, it’s reassuring that they still show the tap lineup clearly.
MugiWait, what does it mean for the printer to be grumpy!? But if they skipped the menu photos and still gave the info, that helps a lot~.
Hop BroThe stars of the day are Blooming IPA and Kuni no Cho’s American Pale Ale. And according to the shop, half of it suddenly turned into Osaka beer (lol).
MugiTwo Osaka beers on tap sounds like the family just got bigger all of a sudden! But what does Blooming IPA taste like?
Hop BroAn IPA’s hallmark is a bright hop character that lets the hop aroma come forward. It’s the kind of beer where the scent pops in the glass, very much in Minoh Beer’s style.
MugiWha-what is hop character anyway! Like a bouquet of flowers? But if it’s full-on brightness, I want to try it!
Hop BroExactly, and the counterpart is the American Pale Ale. It’s less likely to wear you out than an IPA, and it bridges nicely from the uplift of the first beer to the calmer feeling of the second.
MugiI see, it’s like a staircase of beer! And in Uji that flow sounds great, I can already picture from the first beer to the second.
Hop BroWhat’s more, the food is interesting too, because they’re even handling the shrimp prep themselves. They’re recommending a trial spicy-oil stir-fry, and the fact that they’re still testing whether to make it more fried really feels like life in the kitchen.
MugiWhoa, they’re serious not just about drinks but about snacks too! If you pair beer and shrimp in Uji, you might never want to go home~.
Hop BroWhat makes Beer Tsukasa appealing is that, in a tourist area like Uji, you can enjoy the local atmosphere itself. Tonight, we’ll want to start with a first round too.
MugiYeah, it’s decided for today! Start with the IPA, then the Pale Ale, and finish with the shrimp~.
The beer pub Beer Tsukasa, located in Uji Myoraku, Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture, announced its March 24 (Tuesday) service details on Instagram. Business hours are 11:00-14:00／16:00-21:30. The post title was "The printer is grumpy below..." and, although the day’s menu photos could not be posted because of equipment trouble, tap information was shared clearly.
The beers listed in the post for the day were the following two labels:
- Blooming IPA (Minoh Beer)
- American Pale Ale (Kuni no Cho)
The shop also commented, "Suddenly half of it became Osaka beer (lol)," making for a lineup that craft beer fans in the Kansai region won’t want to miss. In particular, the combination of an IPA expected to deliver bright hop character and an American Pale Ale that’s easy to keep drinking gives the lineup a flow that works well from the first glass to the second.
The post also went into detail about the food, including shrimp dishes that had received extra attention in prep. It highlighted a trial spicy-oil stir-fry, and the fact that they are still experimenting with whether to lean it toward a fried preparation conveys the on-the-ground feel of a kitchen that is always thinking about how best to pair with beer.
In the tourist area of Uji, the appeal of Beer Tsukasa is that you can enjoy craft beer and food without feeling overly formal. It’s a local spot that shares the changing taps and even the atmosphere of that day’s prep work.
