Craft Beer Spot Hatoru, Oni Densetsu and Nara Brewing on the April 30 Tap List
Craft Beer Spot Hatoru in Osaka's Kyobashi has released its tap list for April 30. From Akkiyama Red Lager, Lighthouse Real Ale ver, and SORA MIZU SHIZEN, it offers 16 taps spanning lager, IPA, and black beer styles.
Hop BroOsaka's Kyobashi craft beer spot Hatoru came out swinging on April 30 with 16 taps lined up. It even has Oni Densetsu and Nara Brewing, plus house-smoked dishes, so it's the kind of lineup that's fun before you even start drinking.
MugiWhat! 16 taps is the kind of thing that leaves you totally lost in choice! And with smoked food too, this feels less like a beer bar and more like a delicious trap.
Hop BroFirst up is Oni Densetsu Beer's Akkiyama Red Lager. It's a red lager with the toasty aroma of roasted malt and a gentle bitterness from the malt, the kind that feels calm on the surface but has real backbone.
MugiA red lager sounds like something red and bitter? And the word roasted malt already sounds like fresh-baked bread, which just makes me hungry!
Hop BroExactly. Because the malt is well roasted, both the color and aroma deepen. Another beer on tap today, Nara Brewing's Lighthouse Real Ale ver, is a beer where the roasty character of the malt is layered with cacao and coffee-like notes.
MugiWait, what is a real ale? Does that mean the beer is "real"? It suddenly sounds like training camp!
Hop BroIn rough terms, it's a British-style approach that brings out foam and aroma through the cask and the pour. Here, the point is that the roasted aroma comes forward easily, letting you slowly enjoy those dark-beer nuances.
MugiOhh! Then the recommended Westmalle Dubbel is tempting too! Plum, banana, and raisins? That's like a fruit parfait, even though it's beer!
Hop BroThat's the fun of a Belgian dubbel. And SORA MIZU SHIZEN is a DDH Pale Ale brewed by Uchu Brewing with Cloudwater Brew Co., a modern beer with layers of hop aroma.
MugiDDH again! If you stack the hop aroma that much, the whole room would probably smell delicious!
Hop BroDDH stands for double dry hopping, a method where hops are added again after fermentation to boost aroma. Today they've got lager, session, fruit, IPA, and black styles on tap, so the best part is the wide swing from dark beers to bright hop aroma.
MugiI see, this is the kind of lineup you can't choose from! It makes me want not just to take my time over a drink in Kyobashi, but to have several, and with smoked snacks on top of that, pure happiness!
