café&beer Aruka→Aruka in Osaka’s Namba announced its Friday, May 22, 5:00 p.m. opening hours. In the post, it shared an at-home beer-pub day, with nine taps centered on local Osaka beers plus food lined up for an upcoming event.
Hop BroI found a place in Namba, and café&beer Aruka→Aruka is serving 9 taps centered on local Osaka beers. They’re really going for it.
MugiWhoa! Nine taps? That’s the kind of menu that instantly makes you lose your way. A nine-beer tasting sounds way too fun!
Hop BroAnd the lineup is solid too. 13 Red Ale is a Session Red IPA from Aruka→Aruka x One’s Brewery, so it’s brisk but still has a good malt presence.
MugiSession, huh? What is that, a beer you can nap through? So Session IPA just means it’s lighter?
Hop BroBasically, it means you can enjoy several glasses more easily because the alcohol punch is kept in check. It’s light and easy to drink, so it’s a good first beer too.
MugiOhhh! And they even have herbs? Lavender&Chamomile sounds like aromatherapy for beer!
Hop BroExactly. It’s CRAFT BEER BASE’s Golden Ale with herbs, and the aromatic finish is really elegant. A herbal beer is perfect when you want a change of pace.
MugiAnd the food is serious too, right!? New potato gratin and all that? They’re clearly committed to pairing with beer!
Hop BroThey were also preparing for CRAFT BEER LIVE that day, and it’s great that they’ve got snacks that go well with beer all lined up properly.
MugiBeing able to just drop in casually in Namba and enjoy local flavors sounds amazing. This is exactly what people mean by an at-home atmosphere.
Hop BroYou can start light and still drink seriously, so finishing with Heartland is also an option. It’s the kind of place that makes us want to go right now.
Located in Namba Sennichimae, Chuo Ward, Osaka, "café&beer あるか→アるか" posted on Instagram that it is "an at-home beer pub🍻" while announcing its operating details for Friday, May 22. The shop sits in the middle of Namba and is known as a beer pub where you can easily drop by.
Today’s lineup
The post featured nine taps. Centered on Osaka breweries, the selection also included a herb-infused beer and staple overseas beers, offering a wide range for tasting side by side.
- 13 Red Ale / Session Red IPA / Aruka→Aruka x One’s Brewery
- Lavender&Chamomile / Golden Ale with herbs / CRAFT BEER BASE

Although the lineup has a strong local character, the styles are broad, ranging from Session IPA and Sour IPA to amber and stout. Because you can choose anything from light to full-bodied depending on your mood, it works well not just for a first drink, but also for spending a few rounds enjoying each beer’s distinct character.
Food is also abundant
That day, while preparing for CRAFT BEER LIVE, the shop also put out food. The menu included new potato gratin, a savory pie with bacon and chrysanthemum greens, fried chicken tenderloin, edamame rillettes, eringi mushrooms with menma, chicken and green onion tsukune, plated wontons, and pescatore, with plenty of dishes that pair well with beer.
This is a place to keep in mind for days when you want to drink mainly local brewery beers in Namba. Its atmosphere, which naturally moves between cafe and beer pub, is also part of the shop’s appeal.
