Hop BroFurukuta Sakaba in Utsubohonmachi, Osaka, updated its taps after Golden Week. It's casual as a standing bar, but the fact that you can start draft beer from noon is great, right?
MugiWhat, you can drink from noon!? A 12:00 start is basically a championship win!
Hop BroThere are five beers on tap today, and the five-tap rotation lineup is interesting. Since it spans IPA, bitter, and pilsner, it's easy to build a flow from the first drink to the last.
MugiWhat do you mean, a flow!? Is there really a strategy for drinking from the first to the last glass?
Hop BroThere is. For example, `Dank City IPA` is CRAFTROCK BREWING's American IPA at 7.0%. It has strong hop aroma and bitterness, so it's the beer that gets your mood up at the start.
MugiWhoa, just hearing hop aroma makes my mouth tingle! But IPAs sometimes sound intimidating just from the name.
Hop BroThen slipping in `SOYOKAZE`, Kankiku Brewery's Italian Pilsner, is a classy move. It's light and easy to drink, so it goes down smoothly in this hotter season.
MugiOhhh! If it's light and easy to drink, that sounds friendly even for beer beginners. Pilsner makes it sound kind of elegant too!
Hop BroAnd Bighand Bros. Beer's `Kurgantaite` is an English Pale Ale, and the post even said it was moving fast. The malt sweetness and gentle hop character really come through.
MugiIf it's moving fast, that means you need to check it early! If you take your time, the good stuff disappears first...
Hop BroAnd `MUGICHA Bitter` is Minoh Beer's Bitter, and the fact that the staff themselves ordered another one is amazing. You can really take in the toasted character and bitterness, so just like the name says, Mugi-chan might get hooked too.
MugiThat's the kind of thing I love! A bitter they ordered again has nothing but credibility, and it sounds like it would go great with the asparagus spaghetti and pork vindaloo too!
Hop BroExactly. The strength of Furukuta Sakaba is that you can enjoy day drinking and food pairings too. Spending time in the south of Utsubo Park, looking over the taps and thinking about your next beer, is pure happiness.
MugiI can't take it anymore, I want to day-drink in Honmachi! I want to try all five of these, from the first beer to the last!
