Reizundo releases its April 12 tap list; Hoppu Kotan and Ise Kadoya Beer appear
BEER & MUSIC Cafe Reizundo in Ibaraki, Osaka, has announced its business hours and tap list for April 12, 2026. With Hoppu Kotan Brewing, Ise Kadoya Beer, Baeren Brewery, Pilsner Urquell, and SORACHI 1984 on the lineup, it will be open despite being a regular closing day.
Hop BroThe BEER & MUSIC Cafe Reizundo's tap list in Ibaraki, Osaka, has been released, and April 12 is a day when they're open even though it's treated as a regular closing day. That's a pretty stylish move.
MugiWait, they're open even though it's a regular closing day!? And April 12 is a special business day? That alone makes me want to go!
Hop BroThe lineup for the day is strong too. Hoppu Kotan Brewing's Full Throttle : American IPA, Ise Kadoya Beer's IPA and West Coast Pilsner, Baeren's stout, and even Pilsner Urquell are on tap.
MugiHold on, American-style IPA and West Coast Pilsner? The names alone are enough to get me tipsy on beer!
Hop BroBasically, IPA is all about hop aroma and bitterness, while West Coast Pilsner gives you pilsner drinkability with a hop-forward edge. In other words, it's a lineup you can enjoy for the showdown between bitterness and aroma.
MugiI see! So Baeren's Chocolate Stout is sweet? The kind you can drink like dessert?
Hop BroDon't be fooled by the name there. Chocolate stout doesn't actually have chocolate in it; it's the toasty depth of roasted malt that gives that impression, and it's irresistible for black-beer fans.
MugiWow! And if they even have Pilsner Urquell, then they've got a proper easy-drinking classic too.
Hop BroExactly. And they also have SAPPORO BEER's SORACHI 1984, so you can enjoy the refreshing Sapporo character and the aroma from Sorachi Ace. Plus, the next-candidate lineup even includes Sencha Hazy IPA, which makes the rotation interesting.
MugiWhat, just hearing Sencha Hazy IPA makes me feel like Japanese tea and hops are going to fight, but instead they get along?
Hop BroThat's the fun of a tap-led place. Hazy IPA's appeal is its haze and juiciness, so when sencha aroma is added, it could spread out like a playful mix of Japanese and hop aromas.
MugiAnd the food includes ragout spaghetti, venison, smoked items, zangi, and even meat-loaded pizza!? The range of bar snacks is so broad my stomach is already starting a meeting!
Hop BroBeing able to drink slowly with music and move from IPA to pilsner to stout is what makes Reizundo special. This is going to be a night where one glass won't be enough.
