umbrella RiB Opens at 3 p.m. on May 9, with 12 Beers Including Minami Shinshu Beer
The beer pub umbrella RiB in Utaganocho, Osaka, opened on May 9 with hours from 3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. The shortened service was due to the staff heading to the 15th anniversary party of the basement bar umbrella, and in addition to 12 draft beers, three BREWMIN’ canned beers and a limited-quantity burger were also announced.
Hop BroThe fact that Osaka's Utaganocho umbrella RiB opened on May 9 from 3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. is pretty exciting. The clean decision to close at 11 p.m. because they were heading to the 15th anniversary party of the basement bar umbrella, and to make May 10 a day off, too.
MugiWait, it closes at 11 p.m.? But that means if you go early, you can drink at a relaxed pace, right?
Hop BroExactly. And the main attraction that day is the lineup of 12 draft beers. From Minami Shinshu Beer's Spring Session to RaR × Bullhos' Personal Plug, it's quite an aggressive selection.
MugiWhat is that? Does session mean light? The names sound strong, but are they easy to drink?
Hop BroThat's the interesting part: session-style beers are light and easy to drink, while still having aroma and character. For example, Minoh Beer's Session Black IPA adds the depth of dark malt, and Snow Monkey IPA brings out the hop aroma.
MugiWhoa! So if there's something like Yuzu Tripel, is it sweet? Or does the citrus make it crisp?
Hop BroTripels tend to have a higher alcohol presence in the Belgian style, but when yuzu is added, the aroma opens up and feels bright. And there are collaborations like Nara Brewing × VERTERE's Tifina mixed in too, so the tasting lineup gets busy.
MugiToo busy! And there are even three BREWMIN’ cans? Asking me to look at the can designs too, that's absolutely targeting my urge to buy things!
Hop BroExactly, and they even have a limited-quantity burger, so if you go on an empty stomach, you'll lose. The shop is on the first floor of Juraku Building, 9-23 Toganocho, Kita Ward, Osaka, and with more than 60 kinds of bottles and cans, you can attack the taps and take cans home in a two-pronged approach.
MugiIf you can get this much in Umeda, you can call it a tasting paradise. From Session Ale to Hazy IPA, West Coast IPA, and Keller Pils, one drink today definitely won't be enough!

Burgers are also available in limited quantities. The interior has the honest, beer-pub feel suited to people who want to compare multiple styles in the Higashi-Umeda area.
