CRAFT Rainbow in Okayama announces five taps, including Minoh Beer's Grapefruits Sour
CRAFT Rainbow, a beer pub in Okayama City, shared its tap lineup on July 7. The post highlights five beers, including Minoh Beer’s Grapefruits Sour, Ise Kadoya Beer’s LushHopIPA, and other Japanese craft selections.
Hop BroToday, CRAFT Rainbow in Kita-ku, Okayama is pouring five taps, and the lineup is basically begging for a tasting run.
MugiWait, five beers on tap at once? Those names already sound like boss-level drinks!
Hop BroThe headliner is Minoh Beer’s Grapefruit Sour, a citrusy sour that sounds perfect for a hot day.
MugiSo is sour actually sour? When you say bright citrus character, it sounds like beer pretending to be juice!
Hop BroThat’s the fun part. It has acidity, but the fruit keeps it light. It becomes your tasting benchmark for the rest of the lineup.
MugiYou just dropped a pro term! What even is a tasting benchmark? Is my tongue supposed to take notes now?
Hop BroBasically, it’s the first beer that sets your scale. Then you jump to Ise Kadoya’s LushHopIPA, and the hop aroma lands way harder.
MugiOhhh, so that hop aroma is the floral, zippy thing that jumps out of the glass? The name already sounds loud.
Hop BroExactly. Then you’ve got wcb’s StarWatcher, Fermentary’s Gpepee, and even Suntory draft, so the spread runs from IPA to saison to pilsner.
MugiAnd it’s a smoke-free beer pub near Okayama Station, right? That sounds dangerously easy to hit after work.
Hop BroYep, and with weekday opening around 5 p.m., a lineup with this much style variety is how one pint quietly becomes three.
MugiThat’s a trap, but a beautiful one. I officially want to head to CRAFT Rainbow and start with the Grapefruit Sour right now!
