Nomcraft Juso Taproom posts July 24 tap list with 15 beers
Nomcraft Juso Taproom shared its tap list for Friday, July 24. The lineup spans 15 beers, mixing house regulars, a nitro porter, collaboration beers, and a range of styles that should appeal to drinkers looking to compare several pours in Juso.
Hop BroNomcraft Juso Taproom just dropped a 15-beer tap list today. With core beers and collabs all lined up, this is a seriously good day for a tasting run in Juso.
MugiWait, fifteen beers on tap? That's not a menu, that's a final exam!
Hop BroThe backbone is NOMCRAFT LAGER, NOMCRAFT IPA, and JUSO XPA, so you've got a strong core lineup from lager to IPA right away.
MugiJUSO XPA sounds cool, but what is XPA exactly? It sounds like IPA's flashy cousin.
Hop BroXPA means Extra Pale Ale. Basically, it's big on aroma but lighter on the palate, so the hop character shows up clearly without hitting too hard.
MugiOhhh, so it's easy to compare even if you're still getting into craft beer. The name had me expecting a boss battle.
Hop BroExactly. And with OCTOPUS KING, TENGU GROOVE, SOLAR PHANTOM, POCKET HERO, WAKAYAMA XPA, and ZIPANGU SOUL, you can really see Nomcraft's range on display.
MugiHold on, PORTER -Nitro ver. is nitro-poured? What is that, did they strap a rocket to the beer?
Hop BroNot rocket fuel, nitrogen. It makes a smoother mouthfeel with finer bubbles than regular carbonation, so that dark porter lands soft and creamy.
MugiThat sounds dangerously good... and if ALPINE WAVES and HUMAN'S DRINK are on too, the collab section is stacked. I need more than one glass.
Hop BroThen add CON SAFOS, 9 LIVES, and SPECIAL OTHERS, and you've got collabs everywhere with HAKUBA BREWING, IBREW Akihabara, Kaigan Brewery, and CRAFTROCK BREWING. Gareth is even stopping by briefly after work in Osaka.
MugiNope, I'm done resisting. If it's close to Juso Station, I want to start with the lager, move to JUSO XPA, and finish with that nitro porter tonight!
Nomcraft Juso Taproom posted its latest tap list on Friday, July 24. The lineup includes 15 beers, anchored by house regulars like `NOMCRAFT LAGER`, `NOMCRAFT IPA`, and `JUSO XPA`, plus a broad spread from hop-forward beers to a porter.
The board also features `OCTOPUS KING`, `TENGU GROOVE`, `SOLAR PHANTOM`, `POCKET HERO`, `WAKAYAMA XPA`, and `ZIPANGU SOUL`, showing the range Nomcraft is known for across IPA, pale ale, and micro-IPA territory. `PORTER -Nitro ver.` adds a smooth nitro option to the mix.
The collaboration beers are equally notable: `ALPINE WAVES` with HAKUBA BREWING, `HUMAN'S DRINK` with IBREW Akihabara, `CON SAFOS` with Los Elegantes, `9 LIVES` from Kaigan Brewery, and `SPECIAL OTHERS` from CRAFTROCK BREWING × SPECIAL OTHERS. For a brewery-owned taproom in Osaka's Juso district, the mix of house beers and outside collaborations makes for a well-rounded tap board.
The post also thanked visitors for the recent soba-and-beer event and mentioned that Gareth would stop by briefly after work. For anyone heading to Juso, it is a solid day to compare fresh pours across the house lineup and the guest collaborations.
