BEER HUNTING URAWA Announces New Taps from Shiga Kogen and Minoh on April 26
BEER HUNTING URAWA (Kita-Urawa) will be open from 14:00 to 22:00 on April 26, and will newly tap Africa Pale Ale from Shiga Kogen Beer and Rockin' Osaru IPA from Minoh Beer. With house-brewed U.B.P BREWERY and Brasserie Knot kegs also on hand, it will be a day well suited to side-by-side tasting.
Hop BroBEER HUNTING URAWA on April 26 is seriously hot, with new taps from Shiga Kogen and Minoh.
MugiWait, so that means the first pour is basically the star of the show?
Hop BroExactly. They’re bringing in Africa Pale Ale and Rockin' Osaru IPA, and since they're open 14:00-22:00, you can enjoy them from Sunday afternoon.
MugiAfrica Pale Ale sounds cool, but what even is a real ale?
Hop BroIn short, it’s a serving method that lets the beer’s character come through, including how the cask is handled. This one from Shiga Kogen Beer is in the session IPA vein, so it has plenty of aroma without being tiring to drink.
MugiOhh, so Rockin' Osaru IPA sounds wild just from the name, but since it’s a double IPA, it packs a stronger punch?
Hop BroThat’s right. Minoh Beer’s Rockin' Osaru IPA has a real presence, and it’s the kind of beer that wakes up your Sunday mood with aroma and bitterness.
MugiAnd the regular taps are amazing too! U.B.P BREWERY's URAWA CITY ALE and Kick Off Pils really make it feel like Urawa!
Hop BroOn top of that, they’ve got Brasserie Knot’s YUKISHIRO and YAMASACHI 1 Year Aged ver., plus HOPDOG BREWING’s OTAMA SAISON, so side-by-side tasting is going to be a blast.
MugiThey’ve got shumai and lemon sours too, so it doesn’t feel like a place where beer is the only thing on the menu! I’m already in the mood for bar hopping in Kita-Urawa!
Hop BroThen there’s nothing for it but to go today. Line up those star-of-the-show first pours, and let’s finish with a toast together.
Tap List for April 26
BEER HUNTING URAWA will be open on Sunday, April 26, from 14:00 to 22:00. Food last order is 21:00, and drink last order is 21:30; the business hours have changed since March.
The highlights of the day are the two new taps. Served as a real ale, Africa Pale Ale / Shiga Kogen Beer is a session IPA, while Rockin' Osaru IPA / Minoh Beer is a double IPA. Both are built around a balance of aroma and drinkability, and each could easily take center stage from the first drink of the Sunday session.
The regular taps include U.B.P BREWERY's own beers from Urawa: URAWA CITY ALE, Kick Off Pils, Step Over, and Bombonera. In addition, Brasserie Knot from Hokkaido brings YUKISHIRO, KEYAKI, HAOTO, and YAMASACHI 1 Year Aged ver., while HOPDOG BREWING from Akita adds OTAMA SAISON. The range of styles is quite broad.
The shop is a beer pub on the second floor of 4-3-7 Kita-Urawa. It is continuing to evolve into a craft-drinking bar, and its non-beer drink selection is also being expanded. Lemon sours made with non-waxed lemons and Oni Oroshi sours are available, and the food menu, including shumai, has also been refreshed. Centering the experience on beer while making it easy to flow naturally into a meal is very much in keeping with this place.
