Nomcraft Juso Taproom to Hold a Sake Yeast Beer Event on May 2
At the brewpub "Nomcraft Juso Taproom" in Juso, Osaka, an event featuring beer made with sake yeast was announced for May 2. It looks set to be a day to enjoy alongside NOMCRAFT Brewing drafts on the weekend just before Golden Week.
Hop BroSo the May 2 event in Osaka’s Juso district is all about drinking sake yeast beer at Nomcraft Juso Taproom. This is a pretty tempting one right before Golden Week.
MugiWait! A beer made with sake yeast already sounds delicious, but what kind of flavor does it have?
Hop BroThe thing is, instead of the usual beer yeast, it gets character from sake fermentation, so you can expect more of a Japanese nuance in the aroma and finish.
MugiHuh? So just changing the yeast makes that much of a difference? This is suddenly sounding like science class!
Hop BroPut simply, yeast is the flavoring director of fermentation. So even with the same malt and hops, the personality of the fermentation can completely change the direction of the aroma.
MugiI get it! And if the venue is the Juso Taproom, it sounds perfect for just dropping in and doing a tasting!
Hop BroExactly. And since this is the directly operated taproom for NOMCRAFT Brewing, and public info says it has 15 taps, the strength is that you can follow both the standards and the specials together.
MugiWhat, 15 taps? That’s the kind of thing that makes it impossible to know where to start, in the best possible way!
Hop BroAnd because it’s the weekend right before Golden Week, it’s also perfect as a pre-holiday drink. Starting with one that has a sake-like feel, then finishing with a classic draft, would be a great move.
MugiWow, I’m too excited for the tasting! Now I want to detour through Juso in Osaka today and have a drink together!
On April 24, a post announced that the brewpub "Nomcraft Juso Taproom" in Juso, Osaka, will host an event featuring beer made with sake yeast on May 2. With the timing just ahead of Golden Week, it is likely to become a notable topic for beer fans before the holiday break.
Nomcraft Juso Taproom is the directly operated taproom of "NOMCRAFT Brewing," a brewery based in Aridagawa, Wakayama. It offers the easygoing feel you would expect from the Juso Station area, while also letting guests enjoy a wide range of the company’s own beers inside the shop. According to public information, it has 15 taps. From core releases to limited editions, it is known as a place where every glass offers a different expression.
The star of this event, as the title suggests, is beer made with sake yeast. Because it is brewed with a different approach from beer yeast, it should offer character distinct from regular craft beer. It is an interesting theme not only for people curious about sake-like nuances, but also for those who want to compare differences in fermentation through a tasting.
Having the chance to enjoy a sake-yeast beer together with NOMCRAFT Brewing beers at a brewpub in Juso is also an opportunity to appreciate the breadth of craft beer. Right before the holiday break, it is the kind of event that is perfect for taking a slight detour and enjoying a tasting side by side.
