YELLOW APE CRAFT, a beer pub in Osaka's Kitahama area, said it has installed a new air conditioner inside the shop. The team joked that recent visitors may have felt as if it was "raining" indoors, so the upgrade should make the room much more comfortable for drinking craft beer.

Today's pour
- Morning Summer / RISE & WIN Brewing

Only one keg was tapped for the day, and the name suggests an easygoing beer that fits the warmer season.

June 20 event
The pub is also planning a double tap takeover on Saturday, June 20, with Daisen G Beer and Kamado Brewery. The event will feature collaboration beer, special food, and a rock-paper-scissors contest with prizes, and both brewers will be on site. For beer fans, it is the kind of setup that makes a neighborhood beer pub feel especially close to the makers.

YELLOW APE CRAFT usually keeps around 20 draft beers on rotation and also runs a bottle shop. It is the kind of place where you can drop in casually, but still follow the changing tap list with interest. The post also mentions drink-all-you-can courses: one for all beers on tap at 6,000 yen, and another for 10 beers at 5,000 yen. Both require reservations for groups of four or more by the day before, making it an easy option for anyone who wants to spend a longer evening with craft beer in Kitahama.
