Hop BroOsaka's Toganocho umbrella RiB will be open on Sunday, March 22, from 3:00 PM to midnight. And with 12 taps including a new keg opening, the lineup is seriously ambitious.
MugiWhat! 12 taps is too many, isn't it? I don't even know what to drink now, my brain's about to turn into foam!
Hop BroFirst to watch is Ushitora Brewery's Kusaka-san's White Grape Saison. It's a Fruit Saison at 6%, so the white-grape aroma and the Saison's easygoing character should mesh really nicely.
MugiWhat's a Saison anyway! Am I right that it's like a beer born from farm work?
Hop BroPretty much. It's part of the Farmhouse Ale lineage, and its appeal is that it originally had a dry, easy-drinking profile meant for drinking between jobs. And this one adds a white-grape nuance, so it's the kind that comes through with a light aroma rather than hitting hard.
MugiWow! And with stuff like Smoked Helles and West Coast IPA all over the place, it's fun because the directions are so different! It's like you can flip through a beer textbook in one night!
Hop BroExactly, it's a lineup that's fun to compare. It's not just hop-driven IPAs; it also includes smoke, bitter, lager, and yeast-derived character, so the range of flavors is wide.
MugiWait, there's even a Nitro Micro Porter? It feels like a fluffy black cloud just rolled in, and it sounds perfect to finish on!
Hop BroThat's the killer part. The number of collaboration beers is another highlight, with Himitsu Beer × torne × Kemupa's 'Tomodachi Saison,' Hino Brewing × Umbrella RiB × Ladybird's 'Yudachi Lager,' and Beppu Brewery × Umbrella RiB × Ladybird's 'You Waku Mosaic' all on tap.
MugiWhat is that, the kind of lineup that starts a drinking party just from the names? It's convenient in the Umeda area, too, so it feels great as a place to go all out from the first stop!
Hop BroAnd because it's at street level on the first floor of the Juraku Building, it's easy to just swing by. A beer pub you can hit from the early hours of the weekend is seriously appreciated.
MugiAll right, I'll start off refreshing with the white grape and finish with something dark! Tonight's pub crawl starts here, decided!
Osaka, Kita Ward's craft beer bar umbrella RiB (Umbrella Rib) announced its operating hours and tap list for Sunday, March 22. Hours are 3:00 PM to midnight. In the post, Ushitora Brewery's "Kusaka-san's White Grape Saison (Fruit Saison 6%)" was introduced as the one new keg opening.
The day's taps span a broad lineup, from Farmhouse Ale, Smoked Helles, West Coast IPA, Hazy Double IPA, Session IPA, Czech Lager, Sake Yeast Beer, and English Bitter to a Nitro Micro Porter. Not only hop-forward beers, but also smoke, bitterness, and yeast-derived character can be compared over the course of one night.
What stands out in particular is the number of collaboration beers. Himitsu Beer × torne × Kemupa's "Tomodachi Saison," Hino Brewing × Umbrella RiB × Ladybird's "Yudachi Lager," and Beppu Brewery × Umbrella RiB × Ladybird's "You Waku Mosaic" are among the highly conceptual pours on offer.
The shop is at street level on the first floor of the Juraku Building, making it an easy beer pub to use when you want to spend time enjoying craft beer in the Umeda area. Because it opens early on weekends, it works well both as a first stop and as a starting point for a night of bar hopping.
