CRAFT BEER BASE leaf updates 15 taps on April 13, with two new beers debuting
The beer pub CRAFT BEER BASE leaf at Grand Green Osaka in Osaka released its tap list for April 13. In addition to 10 original beers, the lineup totals 15 taps, including guest beers from Chuckanut Brewery, Totopia, RODENBACH, and Daisen G Beer.
Hop BroToday, CRAFT BEER BASE leaf in Osaka/Umeda is the one to watch. On April 13, the taps get a major refresh, and the lineup is seriously strong.
MugiWhoa! A 15-tap refresh already sounds fun before you even choose. With that many, I'd probably freeze up in the shop!
Hop BroIt's 10 originals plus 5 guest beers, so 15 taps total. And it includes staples like leaf, BLONDE, and PALE ALE, along with new releases too.
MugiWhich new ones? LAVENDER & CHAMOMILE sounds like a flower garden just from the name!
Hop BroThat's the appeal. There's also leaf made with sage and lemongrass, so it's a lineup that really lands for the aroma-forward crowd.
MugiBut Wit and Belgian IPA and all these katakana traps all of a sudden! My brain is foaming trying to figure out what goes with what!
Hop BroWit is a crisp wheat beer, and Belgian IPA is an IPA with Belgian yeast character. In other words, the aroma direction is completely different, which makes tasting side by side fun.
MugiI see! Then the guests are interesting too. Are the two Chuckanut beers the kind lager fans get excited about?
Hop BroExactly. Pilsner and Vienna Lager cover brightness and maltiness, while Totopia's Boxphobia and RODENBACH CLASSIC widen the range all at once.
MugiWait, from sour styles all the way to Imperial Stout 2023? That's basically a beer trip from day to night!
Hop BroAnd there's even miso-koji salami, so the pairing with PALE ALE is something I want to check too. You can enjoy it from 11:00 to 23:00, and reservations are easy, so the excuse to stop by after work is way too strong.
MugiIt's decided! I'll start light and finish with the dark stuff! This is what a tasting paradise looks like!
April 13 Tap List
The Osaka/Umeda beer pub "CRAFT BEER BASE leaf" has prepared 15 taps for its April 13 service. The lineup consists of 10 house beers plus five guest beers, and guests can enjoy them indoors from 11:00 to 23:00. Food last order is 22:00, and drink last order is also 22:00.
Among the house beers, leaf, made with sage and lemongrass, the staples BLONDE and PALE ALE, and the newly added LAVENDER & CHAMOMILE and Ikeda Mikan Wit are on tap. Also available are MIX JUICY 012, Belgian IPA, Sorachi Kinuyuki ~ Sake Yeast BMK3 ver., Red Ale, and Robust Porter. The aroma profiles and colors span a wide range, making it easy to build a full tasting flow, from light and easy-drinking beers to dark styles you will want to sip slowly.
The guest beers include Chuckanut's two beers, Pilsner and Vienna Lager, Boxphobia from Totopia, RODENBACH CLASSIC, and Imperial Stout 2023 from Daisen G Beer. With lager, sour styles, DIPA, and imperial stout all represented, it looks like a lineup that will be especially fun to compare with the house beers.
The post also mentions salami made with koji for miso, and notes how it pairs well with PALE ALE and Vienna Lager. With the location on the 2nd floor of Grand Green Osaka, it is easy to stop by after work or between shopping. Reservations are accepted from 11:00 to 21:00, so it should also be convenient for groups.
