Hop BroOkayama’s CRAFT Rainbow updated five taps on March 23. It’s interesting that the lineup includes Hansharo Beer, Onidensetsu, BTB, Shiroyama Beer, and even Suntory draft.
MugiWait! A five-tap update is basically an instant tasting showdown! They put that many on all at once?
Hop BroRight, and there’s even Kinki Pale Ale, so the aroma range is really broad. In the English listing, they’re introduced as MelonWeizen, Paleale, IPA, BelgiumWhite, and Pilsner.
MugiWhat is that! When you say Paleale, it suddenly sounds like some foreign spell and my head goes all floaty!
Hop BroPaleale is basically a pale ale, so it means you can enjoy a beer that emphasizes aroma. Add BTB’s Prayfor3.11 and Shiroyama Beer’s Sakurajima Komikan White, and you get a flow from light to citrusy.
MugiOhhh! Is that softness from wheat the fluffy feel of white-style beers? Then it sounds perfect as a first pint!
Hop BroExactly. And the place is in Nodayacho, Kita Ward, Okayama City, so it’s a relaxed place to drink. It’s easy to stop in alone, so it’s perfect for swinging by after work.
MugiWait, they even have a separate non-smoking space! That sounds great for focusing on the beer aroma!
Hop BroThat kind of consideration is why it’s strong on days when you want to compare beers all in one place. A light white style first, then a pale ale, and finishing with a draft beer is a nice flow.
MugiNow I really want a drink! If it’s a strong pick around Okayama Station, then tonight’s pint is decided here!
