Hop BroToday, YELLOW APE CRAFT in Osaka's Imabashi is on fire - their March 14 post announced four kegs tapped at once!
MugiWhoa! Four at once is seriously luxurious. What’s the lineup for the four beers newly tapped this time?
Hop BroThe main star is Shiga Kogen’s 1t IPA Real Ale Ver, plus Belching Beaver’s Peanut Butter Milk Stout, nomodachi’s Aka Uzume, and Minoh Beer’s SEYA!.
MugiWhat! Just the name Real Ale Ver sounds intense, but how is it different from a regular IPA?
Hop BroThis is the key point: real ale has a softer carbonation, which lets the hop aroma bloom more easily. It’s less flashy and more quietly delicious.
MugiOhhh! So the Peanut Butter Milk Stout is kind of like a dessert? Just the name makes me hungry!
Hop BroExactly. It’s a style that brings out roasty notes and sweet nuances, and compared with an IPA, the difference in body really stands out. It’s perfect for side-by-side tasting.
MugiAnd this place usually has around 20 taps, plus a Today's Tap List link, right? Being able to check before going is so helpful!
Hop BroThe compact interior makes it easy for conversations to happen, and they’ve already announced a hanami event planned for April 5. If you’re looking in Imabashi, this is the place.
MugiDecided! I want to start with the 1t IPA Real Ale and finish with the stout! Let's go drink now!
