Hop BroToday's topic is Osaka's beer pub umbrella near Ohatsu Tenjin, opening at 6 p.m. on June 23 with five taps pouring.
MugiWait, I thought umbrella was a brewery name, but it's actually a bar? A basement beer pub sounds like a secret hideout!
Hop BroExactly. On this tap list, Shiga Kogen Beer's Kasumi is a Session Hazy IPA, so it brings big aroma without drinking heavy.
MugiHold on, does that mean a super easy IPA? The name sounds like a spell!
Hop BroPretty much. 'Session' means lower alcohol and easy pace, and hazy means soft texture with juicy hop aroma sticking around.
MugiOooh, then Nagahama Roman Beer's Setouchi Lemon Pilsner already sounds crisp just from the name!
Hop BroAnd Minoh Beer's black tea bitter is English Bitter w / Tea, basically a tea-infused bitter where malt and tea layer together nicely.
MugiBeer with tea? That's like afternoon tea time suddenly turning into pub mode!
Hop BroThen you add Draught Guinness and Kirin Lager, and suddenly you've got a wide flavor range from hoppy to bitter to roasty to classic.
MugiIt sounds popular though... what about seats? I do not want a floor-sitting emergency with a pint in hand.
Hop BroEarly tables are expected to fill up, but around 8:30 p.m. seats should open, and the counter seats stay open. Plus there's a six-beer ticket for 5,800 yen, so I want the full tasting lap.
MugiIf I can go from Shiga Kogen to Guinness in one night, I want to choose my first pint right now. I'm starting with the lemon pilsner!
Osaka beer pub `umbrella`, located underground near Osatsu Tenjin in Kita Ward, announced an 18:00 opening on Tuesday, June 23.
According to the post, the table area is fully booked early in the evening, and seats are expected to start opening up around 20:30. Counter seats are available, so it should still be an easy stop for solo drinkers or anyone dropping in for a quick pint.
The draft lineup for the day is a solid five-beer selection.
- Kasumi / Shiga Kogen Beer (Nagano) Session Hazy IPA
- Setouchi Lemon Pilsner / Nagahama Roman Beer (Shiga) Lemon Pilsner
- Red Tea Bitter / Minoh Beer (Osaka) English Bitter w/ Tea
- Draught Guinness (Ireland)
- Kirin Lager / Kirin Beer (JP) Lager
The range is broad: a hop-forward Session Hazy IPA, a lemon-tinted pilsner, a tea-infused bitter, a classic Draught Guinness, and a lager. It is a lineup that works well for tasting across styles rather than committing to one direction only.
The pub is also selling a beer ticket priced at 5,800 yen for six smallest-size pours. The post notes that a Guinness pint is also eligible at the underground umbrella bar, making it a practical option for people who want to drink more seriously. The ticket is valid for six months from purchase and will end once sold out.
With its underground setting near Osaka's Oatsu Tenjin area, umbrella keeps the focus on beer itself: a flexible tap list, a relaxed counter, and a room that works both for a quick stop and for a longer drinking session.
The post also listed upcoming closures on June 28 and an `umbrella RiB` 10th-anniversary party on July 11-12.
