Mojiko Beer Weizen tapped at Beer&Cafe Hafen in Osaka’s Esaka, with Minamishinshu and TAROS too
Beer&Cafe Hafen in Osaka’s Esaka has unveiled its latest tap list. Alongside Mojiko Beer’s Weizen, Minamishinshu Beer Oguna’s Biscuit Hop, and TAROS BREWING’s AWAKENING #4, Black Label and Draft Guinness are also on tap.
Hop BroBeer&Cafe Hafen in Osaka’s Esaka has unveiled its latest taps, and the fact that it has now moved into its seventh beer notebook is just amazing. It feels like the shop’s history is being built one glass at a time, which is really nice.
MugiWait, the notebook is on volume 7!? A place that keeps building a record is seriously cool! It’s not just about drinking beer, it’s about collecting memories too.
Hop BroThe highlights this time are Mojiko Beer’s Weizen, Minamishinshu Beer Oguna’s Biscuit Hop, and TAROS BREWING’s AWAKENING #4. Just the Today Taps beer lineup alone makes you want to keep drinking your way through it.
MugiWhat is that!? The names alone are making me way too curious! Biscuit Hop sounds like it’s either a snack or a beer, and now my brain is confused!
Hop BroThat’s the interesting part: it’s designed so the hop aroma comes across like biscuits. Weizen uses wheat, and its trademark is a rich aroma; it often brings out banana and clove-like notes.
MugiBanana and clove!? Wow, the aroma is really busy for a beer! But once you explain it, it somehow makes me want to try it even more.
Hop BroThe regular lineup also includes Sapporo Beer’s Black Label and Draft Guinness, so the contrast with the guest beers is nice. Having Black Label and Guinness side by side really adds to the shop’s sense of comfort.
MugiNice, it’s great that the classics are there too! A place with a good balance of regulars and guests seems easy for beginners to walk into!
Hop BroAnd on the Next!! list, there’s DD4D BREWING x Kamen Rider Agito’s GENERATION-3, plus Mojiko Beer’s Amakusa Shiranui Weizen waiting in the wings. Showing off the next tap preview too really shows they understand drinkers’ hearts.
MugiKamen Rider is coming too!? That’s getting me hyped! I’m already in a beer festival in my head, with the next drink already something to look forward to!
Hop BroThat said, Beer&Cafe Hafen is a small shop, so reservations are recommended for groups of three or more. If you’re drinking in Esaka, make a reservation - that’s the one thing to remember.
MugiAlright, now I definitely have to go! Following the changing taps is making me want to drink along with you too!
Beer&Cafe Hafen in Osaka’s Esaka announced its latest tap lineup on Instagram. In the post, the shop also noted that its beer notebook, which has been maintained since its opening in 2013, has reached its seventh volume, reflecting on the current beers on tap while continuing to log guest beers and tasting notes.
This time’s "Today Taps beer" features Mojiko Beer’s Weizen, Minamishinshu Beer Oguna’s Biscuit Hop, and TAROS BREWING’s AWAKENING #4. As regular offerings, Sapporo Beer’s Black Label and Draft Guinness are also listed. Under "Next!!," DD4D BREWING x Kamen Rider Agito collaboration GENERATION-3 and Mojiko Beer’s Amakusa Shiranui Weizen (Kumamoto Recovery Beer) are waiting in the wings.
The post also mentions OTAMA BREWING from Niigata, but no brand name was listed. The Weizen is introduced as a South German-style wheat beer, and is said to be characterized by its rich aroma. Because Beer&Cafe Hafen is a small shop, parties of three or more are asked to make a reservation. If you want to drink craft beer in Esaka, this is a place worth checking out for both the changing taps and the accumulation of the owner’s records.
