Hop BroThe latest tap list at the Esaka beer pub has changed. At Beer&Cafe Hafen, the current three-beer lineup is Minoh Beer's "Session Black IPA," WOLF BRÄU's "Alt," and Daisen G Beer's "Yuzu Weiss."
MugiWhoa, even though there are only three beers, they're already way too distinctive, aren't they? Black, alt, yuzu - if you drink them in order, it's like a flavor roller coaster!
Hop BroThat's what makes it interesting. Minoh Beer's flagship here is the Session Black IPA. A Black IPA has the roasty aroma of dark malt, but it also brings the hop character you expect from an IPA.
MugiWait, what's a Black IPA? Is it night or day, which is it?!
Hop BroSimply put, it looks dark, but it's an IPA inside, and because it's a session beer, it's designed for drinkability. In other words, it's made to be enjoyed over several glasses rather than hitting you hard and heavy.
MugiOhhh! Then I'm curious about Okinawa's Alt too! Alt sounds like a fancy name for advanced drinkers - so cool!
Hop BroAlt is a German-style top-fermented beer, and it really brings out a clean malt richness. Add Daisen G Beer's Yuzu Weiss from Tottori, and the citrus aroma changes the whole mood at once.
MugiWhat is that? Yuzu Weiss suddenly turns it into pure freshness! But yuzu is popular, right? It feels like it'll be gone fast!
Hop BroExactly, the notice says the yuzu stock is running low, so it's better to go early. And since the regular beers are Black Label and draft Guinness, the lineup doesn't lean too heavily into craft-only territory and still stays easygoing.
MugiAnd if three or more people need a reservation, this place is serious about slow drinking! I want to check out the next candidates, HOPDOG and HINO too. There are already only reasons to go drink tonight!
Hop BroExactly. There are plenty of next candidates too, so there's fun in coming back. In Esaka, this is the kind of lineup that makes you want to raise a glass while deciding which first pour to start with, especially if you're taking it slow in a small group.
