Osaka's umbrella RiB opens on May 23, serving a wide range of craft beer across 12 taps
The beer pub umbrella RiB in Higashi-Umeda, Osaka, opened at 3:00 p.m. on Saturday, May 23. The post introduced today’s 12 taps, along with limited-quantity burgers and more than 60 kinds of bottled and canned beer.
Hop BroA new beer pub has arrived in Toganocho, Osaka. umbrella RiB opened on May 23, and they’re coming out swinging right from the start.
MugiWhoa! They’re that serious from opening day? Starting with 12 taps is already way too much information for me!
Hop BroThe lineup is strong too. They’ve got everything from a light Golden Ale like Mosaic Edge to a West Coast IPA.
MugiWait, wait, what is SMaSH? And Mosaic Edge sounds way too stylish already!
Hop BroSMaSH is a concept like “single malt, single hop,” so the ingredients’ character really comes through. That makes the hop profile stand out clearly.
MugiI get it! Then I’m also curious about the juicy stuff, and I can probably find happiness comparing Hydra and Protea!
Hop BroIf you’re going that route, you can enjoy the contrast in intensity between the Shiga Hazy IPA and the Tokyo Hazy Double IPA. And Trouble Sleep is a 12% Imperial Coffee Stout, so it’s the star of the night.
Mugi12%!? That’s less a beer and more something with serious presence, right? It has coffee in it too, but can I even finish it!
Hop BroIf you’re worried, you can always escape into the fruit-forward or sour styles. There are more than 60 bottled and canned beers, so getting pleasantly lost in the shop is the right move.
MugiAnd they even have limited-quantity burgers? That’s almost unfair! A place where choosing beer is fun means I’m definitely staying a while.
Hop BroThe hours are convenient too, and they’ve already announced the next Hino Brewing TTO. Tonight in Umeda, I want to go in with full-on serious mode from the first glass.
MugiYeah, this means we have to go! I want to be greedy and get both draft and bottled beer, so let’s meet up hungry today!
