The beer pub CRAFT Rainbow in Nodaya-cho, Kita Ward, Okayama City, updated its post on May 18 and revealed the tap list for the day. In addition to craft beers from UBP, nomcraft, and Ise Kadoya Beer, Suntory draft beer is also featured.
Hop BroCRAFT Rainbow in Nodaya-cho, Kita Ward, Okayama City, updated its tap status on May 18. Today's "what's on tap" lineup is pretty fun.
MugiWhoa, a tap status update for today? That feels like peeking into the shop's fridge, and it's kind of exciting!
Hop BroIn that day's "Today's on taps," Orangeale, Paleale, IPA, and Pilsner were lined up. Just from the style lineup, it's nice how you can imagine everything from light and easy to crisp.
MugiBut Paleale and IPA, I've heard the names, but what's the difference? It suddenly feels like a beer exam started in katakana!
Hop BroRoughly speaking, Pale Ale is about aroma and drinkability, IPA leans heavily into hop character, and Pilsner is crisp and clean. Orangeale, just from the name, makes you imagine citrus, and it's a lineup where tasting side by side should make each beer's personality stand out.
MugiI see! Then the lower "Today's lineup" sounds interesting too! When so many are lined up in one shop, it's the kind of thing that's fun even before you choose, but also kind of overwhelming!
Hop BroThey had UBP Asakano Kisaki Ale, nomcraft TenguGroove, Ise Kadoya Beer Nikukyu IPA, and even Suntory draft beer. By pairing craft beers with a standard draft beer, it's set up so a wide range of people can enjoy it.
MugiOh, I like that craft and standard drinks coexist! If you go with friends, the picky ones and the comfort-seekers don't have to fight!
Hop BroWhat's more, the shop is introduced as a "non smoking shop," but it also has a smoking area, and it gives off a solo-drinking, solo-outing vibe too. I think it's pretty easy to use for anyone who wants to drink quietly and slowly.
MugiHuh, a place suited to drinking alone sounds nice. I like the idea of being able to really catch the aroma of the glass without anyone rushing me.
Hop BroBusiness hours are Friday through Monday, opening at 3:00 p.m., and Tuesday through Thursday, opening at 5:00 p.m. On holidays, Tuesday through Thursday are also announced as opening around 5:00 p.m. And it's closed from June 9 to June 17, so checking the schedule before you go is a must.
MugiAlright, let's check the business days before we go! I can already see the future where I end up debating IPA versus Pilsner, but in the end I'd want to drink them all!
