craft beer "Extra Hop", located on the first floor of Okuno Hosomichi Building in Chuo-cho, Oita City, shared its latest bar update on Instagram on September 5. The post says bar service has changed to Wednesday through Saturday starting in September, and notes that the day’s service is being run without the owner on site.

The beers mentioned in the post are an ESB from Kirizumi Brewery and a limited IPA from DevilCraft Brewery. ESB is a malt-forward style, while IPA leans on hop aroma and bitterness, so the lineup gives drinkers two very different directions to compare side by side.

The post also mentions a limited somen champuru dish. That keeps the focus on beer, while still making it easy to pair a light meal with the taps. For beer drinkers in central Oita, Extra Hop looks like a practical place to check the board for fresh pours and settle in for a casual drink.
