The beer pub umbrella in Osaka's Higashi-Umeda will open on Saturday, April 18 at 6:00 p.m. Today's draft lineup features five beers: Oni Momiji IPA, Cheers Ale, Rockin' Osaru IPA, Draft Guinness, and Kirin Lager, and Guinness pint service will also be available.
Hop BroThe beer pub opening in Higashi-Umeda, Osaka, is umbrella opening at 6:00 p.m. on April 18. The taps on day one are already pretty aggressive, and the lineup lets you enjoy everything from craft beer to classics all at once.
MugiWait! They have that much right away? Five draft beers is already too much for my brain to keep up with!
Hop BroToday's lineup is Oni Momiji IPA, Cheers Ale, Rockin' Osaru IPA, Draft Guinness, and Kirin Lager. Oni Momiji IPA is a Hazy IPA from Onidensetsu Beer, and the appeal is its hazy body and juicy hop character.
MugiHuh! But what exactly makes a Hazy IPA "hazy"? English is suddenly coming on strong!
Hop BroBroadly speaking, it's a cloudy IPA. It tends to put hop aroma forward while the bitterness often feels softer, so a lot of people find it fruity and easy to drink.
MugiI see! So what about Cheers Ale? An English Pale Ale sounds like it has a serious face!
Hop BroThat's the interesting part: its appeal is how easy it is to drink. It's a collaboration between Egre Brewery and Inakiku Sake Shop, and while the hops make their presence known, it's the kind of beer that goes down smoothly.
MugiAnd Rockin' Osaru IPA is such an energetic name! If it's a Double IPA, is it strong after all?
Hop BroYes, Minoh Beer's Rockin' Osaru IPA is firmly on the richer side. Double IPAs tend to have more aroma, bitterness, and body, so this is the kind of beer that grabs you from the first sip.
MugiThey've got Guinness and lager too, so the range is huge! And with Guinness pint service available, detours are basically guaranteed.
Hop BroOn top of that, there's a value beer ticket, which is a strong excuse for tasting across the board. For food, there's carpaccio of Osaka-grown Misaki Salmon, and with the dill mayo, the character of each tap should really stand out.
MugiWow, then I have no choice but to go! But we should also check the closed days, right? It's closed on April 19 and 26?
Hop BroExactly, let's go while keeping the schedule in mind. And with the notice for the May 9-10 Party too, if you chase the taps and snacks at umbrella underground, it sounds like it'll be a seriously good night.
MugiAlright, let's go right at the 6:00 p.m. opening on day one! I'll start with Oni Momiji IPA, so Hop Bro gets the Guinness!
The beer pub umbrella in Osaka's Higashi-Umeda will open on Saturday, April 18 at 6:00 p.m. According to the shop's announcement, five draft beers will be available that day, offering a lineup that spans craft beer, a classic lager, and Guinness.
Today's Draft Beer
- NEW Oni Momiji IPA / Onidensetsu Beer (Hokkaido) / Hazy IPA
- Cheers Ale / Egre Brewery (Hyogo) x Inakiku Sake Shop (Osaka) / Modern English Pale Ale
- Rockin' Osaru IPA / Minoh Beer (Osaka) / Double IPA
- Draft Guinness / Guinness (Ireland) / Draught Guinness
- Kirin Lager / Kirin Brewery / Lager
Looking at the lineup, the Hazy IPA and Double IPA that emphasize hop aroma, the easy-drinking English Pale Ale, and then Guinness and lager stand out as a composition that makes it easy to keep pouring another glass. The shop is also selling a value beer ticket for the equivalent of six small servings of each craft beer, and at the underground umbrella, you can order Guinness by the pint.
On the food side, there is a carpaccio made with seasonal Osaka-produced Misaki Salmon, served with dill mayo sauce. The ingredient, said to be neither overly fatty nor overly fishy, is carefully prepared through dehydration and marination. Paired with a beer tasting, it looks like a dish that will bring out the character of each tap.
The post also announces that Sunday, April 19 and Sunday, April 26 are closed days, and that Saturday, May 9 and Sunday, May 10 are scheduled for the "Underground Bar umbrella 15th Party." For anyone in the basement of Sonezaki, Osaka, who wants to follow both rotating taps and seasonal ingredients, it looks like a night worth paying attention to.
