Beer&Cafe Hafen in Esaka, Osaka, updated its tap list in a May 18 post. Along with Sankt Gallen's "Pineapple Ale," Ise Kadoya Brewery's "Mugi no Manimani," and TAROS BREWING's "SUCKER PUNCH #3," the usual Black Label and Draft Guinness are also on offer.
Hop BroBeer&Cafe Hafen in Osaka's Esaka updated its taps in a May 18 post. They've got Sankt Gallen's "Pineapple Ale," and that alone is enough to lift your mood.
MugiWait, "Pineapple Ale" sounds insanely good just from the name! Does it really taste like pineapple?
Hop BroThat's the appeal: it lets you enjoy fruity aroma and a sweet-tart character. At Beer&Cafe Hafen, three beers are listed as today's taps, including Ise Kadoya Brewery's "Mugi no Manimani."
MugiHuh, "Mugi no Manimani" sounds almost poetic. What style is it?
Hop BroThat's part of the fun. The article doesn't say the style name, but seeing it alongside TAROS BREWING's "SUCKER PUNCH #3" makes it clear this is a place to enjoy distinctive rotating drafts.
MugiWhoa, even the title packs a punch! "SUCKER PUNCH #3" sounds like it could knock you out!
Hop BroBut don't worry, one of Hafen's strengths is that you can also drink Black Label and Guinness at the same place. It's great that they offer both craft-beer adventures and a familiar go-to pint.
MugiOh, they serve the classics too! And Draft Guinness is that creamy-headed one, right?
Hop BroExactly. That means you can choose based on your mood, all in one place. And since it's a small Esaka beer pub, it's worth remembering that parties of three or more need a reservation.
MugiI see, it's good to know that before you go. I'm also curious about the next rotation, like "AWAKENING #4," so now I really want to go drink there right away!
Hop BroRight? Next up they've also got names from DD4D BREWING, Minami Shinshu Beer Oguna, and Minoh Beer, so you can't miss the next update either. Tonight, Esaka is the kind of place that makes you want to hop between craft and classics.
Updated Tap List at the Esaka Beer Pub
Beer&Cafe Hafen is a beer pub located on the first floor of Esaka Garden Heights at 1-20-32 Esakacho, Suita City, Osaka Prefecture. True to the scale of a small venue, it also operates with careful attention to detail: parties of three or more require a reservation, and after the 10:00 p.m. last order, it may close early if there are no guests.
The Lineup for the Day
In the post, the following three beers were introduced first as "Today Taps beer."
- Sankt Gallen (Kanagawa) "Pineapple Ale"
- Ise Kadoya Brewery (Mie) "Mugi no Manimani"
- TAROS BREWING (Hiroshima) "SUCKER PUNCH #3"
As regular offerings, Sapporo Breweries' "Black Label" and "Draft Guinness" are also being served. The mix of a rotating, characterful beer and reliable standbys available any time makes this a very convenient spot for drinkers.
Next Rotation Also Announced
The caption also previewed the next lineup under "Next!!": DD4D BREWING (Ehime), TAROS BREWING's "AWAKENING #4," Minami Shinshu Beer Oguna (Nagano)'s "Biscuit Hop," and Minoh Beer (Osaka)'s "Spring Lager." Although DD4D BREWING was listed, the specific beer name was not included in the post text.
