The Beer Shop Hirakata city posts June 3 draft lineup
The Beer Shop Hirakata city in Hirakata, Osaka, shared its June 3 draft-beer lineup and said it was open as usual. The taps included Sapporo Brewery's Black Label, several Craftbank Brewery beers from Kyoto, and West Coast Brewing's Starwatcher.
Hop BroToday’s topic is The Beer Shop Hirakata city and its June 3 draft lineup, and honestly, it’s a strong one.
MugiWhat! That’s the station-side spot, right? 15:00 to 23:00 and you can drink there too? That’s dangerous in the best way.
Hop BroExactly, and leading the list is draft Sapporo Black Label, so you can start with a reliable classic lager.
MugiI love that. It’s like a warm-up cheers before diving into the craft stuff.
Hop BroThen Kyoto’s Craftbank Brewery shows up with Bank IPA, El Clasico, and Bitter Bug all on tap.
MugiHold on, I get the name, but Bank IPA suddenly makes me feel like I’m being tested on beer vocabulary!
Hop BroIPA basically means hops take center stage. You usually get bigger aroma and a firmer bitterness than a standard lager.
MugiOhhh, so if I compare that with Black Label, it’s basically a personality clash tasting in one glass after another?
Hop BroThat’s the fun of it. And from Shizuoka, West Coast Brewing brings in Starwatcher, which really rounds out the lineup.
MugiStarwatcher is such a great name, I already want to assign it the role of official space beer.
Hop BroAnd there’s still one coming soon slot, which means they’ve even left room for a surprise addition that day.
MugiTakeout bottles, pub drinking, a calm wood-heavy counter, and this lineup? I’m ready for a serious tasting mission right now.
