CRAFT Rainbow in Okayama announces five beers on tap at opening
CRAFT Rainbow, a beer pub in Okayama’s Nodayacho area, announced its opening-day service in a post. The lineup includes five beers on tap, with craft beer at the center and sake and shochu also available.
Hop BroA beer pub called CRAFT Rainbow just opened in Nodayacho, Okayama, and starting with five taps on day one is a serious move.
MugiWhat? Five beers on opening day already? That's not opening softly at all. What's on tap?
Hop BroThey've got Sankt Gallen's Suika Wheat, Y.Market Brewing's OverDrive Pale Ale, Hop Kotan's Totonou, Swan Lake's Nagi, and even Suntory Draft.
MugiNo way! Suika Wheat sounds less like beer and more like a summer festival snack!
Hop BroIt's a wheat beer, so it tends to feel lighter and softer, with a fruity impression. In plain terms, it's got a smooth easy finish that's great for a first glass.
MugiOhh! Then what exactly is a pale ale? That name sounds like class started and I forgot my notebook.
Hop BroA pale ale like OverDrive Pale Ale is a classic style built to show off hop aroma and bitterness. Basically, it's the fragrant classic lane of craft beer.
MugiOkay, now I get it! If it goes from fruity and soft to classic and hoppy, that's a perfect tasting lineup right out of the gate.
Hop BroAnd here's the nice part: CRAFT Rainbow also carries sake and shochu, the tap list is bilingual, and the place is non-smoking, so it's a well-rounded setup.
MugiThat's thoughtful! Near Okayama Station too? This has after-work detour written all over it.
Hop BroThey're open from 3 p.m. Friday through Monday, and 5 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday, so tracking tap changes there sounds fun. I'm already deep into first pint fantasies.
MugiI'll take the Suika Wheat, you take the pale ale, and then we're set. I seriously want to toast in Okayama right now.
