Raisin-dō in Ibaraki to tap "Rasberry Pink" on April 20; Ise Kadoya and Baeren also previewed
BEER & MUSIC Cafe Raisin-dō in Ibaraki, Osaka, has released its draft lineup for April 20. The new tap will be Iwate Kura Beer’s "Rasberry Pink," alongside Ise Kadoya Beer’s Sencha Hazy IPA and Sabro’s IPA, as well as Kuppukotan Brewing’s American IPA.
Hop BroThe tap lineup for April 20 at BEER & MUSIC Cafe Raisin-dō in Ibaraki, Osaka is hot. The headline is the new tap of Rasberry Pink, with that spring pink liquid, sweet-tart character, and soft wheat malt feel. It’s the kind of beer that makes you want one even in the middle of the day.
MugiWait, a pink fruit beer can be that cute!? And it’s sweet-tart too, so it’s like a dessert even though it’s beer!
Hop BroAnd it’s from Iwate Kura Beer, too. It’s not just fruit aroma; it also has a proper acidity, so the key point is that it’s light and easy to drink. It fits spring air perfectly.
MugiHold on, what is a Hazy IPA with Green Tea even supposed to be! Is it tea? Is it beer? My brain is getting all floaty!
Hop BroIse Kadoya Beer’s Sencha Hazy IPA is built by layering sencha aroma over elements of passion fruit and mango, with the hazy IPA base giving it that juicy, cloudy character. In other words, it’s an IPA with the aroma of green tea, so you get to enjoy a tug-of-war between Japanese and tropical notes.
MugiThat’s amazing! Then Sabro’s IPA tastes like coconut!? It sounds like drinking on a tropical beach!
Hop BroExactly. Sabro hops bring coconut and tropical fruit to the front. And Kuppukotan Brewing’s Full Throttle adds white-grape-like notes, herbal character, and firm bitterness, so the lineup is all about full-on hop character.
MugiWow, they even have the classic staples! With Pilsner Urquell and SORACHI 1984 in the mix, the range is so wide I’d almost get lost.
Hop BroThat’s what makes Raisin-dō feel like Raisin-dō. Baeren Bier’s rye beer, Colonia, and Mai Bock are also on deck, so you’ve got everything from barley depth to crisp lager character, which makes it perfect with smoked food.
MugiWhoa, now my stomach and my throat are both already craving it! I’m suddenly wanting pizza and pasta too, and all I can think is that tonight I want to toast!
The beer pub "BEER & MUSIC Cafe Raisin-dō" in Ibaraki, Osaka, announced its draft lineup for Monday, April 20. Located in the basement of Socio 2, the shop is a beer-lover’s spot centered on imported beers, local craft beer, and smoked dishes. Its atmosphere, where you can drink along with music, is also part of what makes the place feel like Raisin-dō.
The highlight of the day is Iwate Kura Beer’s "Rasberry Pink : Fruit Beer," which was announced as a new tap. It is described as a light, easy-drinking fruit beer with a springlike pink liquid, layered with sweet-and-tart aromas, acidity, and the gentle sweetness of wheat malt. Next, Ise Kadoya Beer brings "Sencha Hazy IPA : Hazy IPA with Green Tea" and "Sabro’s IPA : Americanstyle IPA." The former is designed with notes of passion fruit and mango layered with the aroma of sencha tea, while the latter highlights the character of Sabro hops, evoking coconut and tropical fruit.
Also on the list is Kuppukotan Brewing’s "Full Throttle : American IPA." It is introduced as a beer with white grape and fruit aromas, herbal and tropical nuances, and a firm bitterness. For those who prefer classic styles, there are also Pilsner Urquell’s "Draft Pilsner Urquell : Drought Pilsner Urquell" and SAPPORO BEER’s "SORACHI 1984 : Pilsner." The lineup combines beers that showcase hop character with reliable standards that never get tiring.
In addition, Baeren Bier, expected to appear nearby, was also announced with "Roggen : Rye Beer," "Alchemist’s Golden Lager," "Colonia : Kölsch," and "Mai Bock : Mai Bock." With barley richness, citrusy hops, crisp lager character, and a spring-friendly bock all in one place, the lineup feels like a strong expression of Raisin-dō’s broad range. It seems like a day made for pairing beers with smoked dishes, pizza, and pasta while enjoying their individual character.
