Oyama G Beer "Marihana Yasato" Goes on Tap Tonight at Enibrew in Nakamozu
At the beer pub Enibrew in Nakamozu, Osaka, Oyama G Beer’s "Marihana Yasato" was announced as tonight’s new tap. It’s the annual special edition of the DH sake rice ale, layering the rice umami from Yamada Nishiki with citrus and white-wine-like aromas from New Zealand hops.
Hop BroTonight at Enibrew, Marihana Yasato is going on tap. It’s Oyama G Beer’s once-a-year special edition, and it’s the kind of news that really hits home for sake-rice-ale fans.
MugiWhat! A special version of a sake rice ale? It already sounds delicious from the name alone! What kind of beer is Marihana Yasato?
Hop BroThe style is DH Sake Rice Ale, with the rice umami from Yamada Nishiki at its core. On top of that, it layers hop aroma through dry hopping, which keeps it from just being another “Japanese-style beer.”
MugiWhat is DH even? Dry hopping? Like hops that are dried out? These beer terms are turning into a puzzle game!
Hop BroIt’s not about drying them; it’s a method of adding aroma after fermentation. Compared with adding a stronger bitterness through heating, it brings the aroma forward more easily, and this time the point is the citrus and white-wine-like character from New Zealand hops.
MugiWow! Citrus and white-wine notes sound so elegant! But if it also has rice sweetness, it sounds gentle and easy to drink.
Hop BroExactly, the appeal is the balance of rice umami and aroma. Plus, Oyama G Beer uses contract-grown Yamada Nishiki from the local Yasato area, which means even the backstory is delicious.
MugiWhat, and there’s even a food pairing! Mita pork fillet cutlet sounds like it was made to go with beer!
Hop BroThat pairing works really well. The richness from being pan-fried in butter, plus the saltiness of the prosciutto and grated cheese, nicely supports Marihana Yasato’s gentle sweetness and hop aroma.
MugiAnd Enibrew can also be used as a bottle shop from 2 p.m., right? Buying it ahead of time and drinking it at night is a solid plan, and if there’s room at the tables, I’d want a drink on the spot!
Hop BroIf it’s going on tap tonight in Nakamozu and there’s food to choose from, there’s really no reason not to go. I can already see the future where you say, "just one drink tonight," and then end up ordering a second one.
MugiExactly! Once you toast with Marihana Yasato, it’s definitely the kind of beer that makes you say, “One more?” I want to enjoy both the beer and the meal all together today!
Tonight’s New Tap
From the beer pub Enibrew in Nakamozu-cho, Sakai City, Osaka, Oyama G Beer "Marihana Yasato" has been announced as tonight’s new tap. The post introduces it as the annual special edition of Oyama G Beer in Tottori, calling their sake rice ale something of a secret specialty. Its style is DH Sake Rice Ale. Starting from a base brewed with contract-grown Yamada Nishiki from the local Yasato area, this version adds IPA-like dry hopping, with New Zealand hops bringing in citrus and white-wine-like aromas.
Food Pairing
Enibrew is a beer pub on the basement level, a 2-minute walk from Nakamozu Station. The post also recommended Mita pork fillet cutlet as tonight’s food pairing. It’s a dish of thinly pounded fillet, pan-fried in butter schnitzel-style and paired with prosciutto and grated cheese, and it sounds like it would go well with the beer’s gentle rice sweetness and hop aroma.
How to Use the Place
The shop is presented not only as a place to drink inside, but also as a bottle shop available from 2 p.m. The stock can be taken home and enjoyed as house drinks or outdoors, which is one of its charms, and the post also noted that there was still some room in the seating area tonight. Since reservations are accepted by phone, it should be reassuring to secure a table before visiting. The post conveyed both the calm, dining-friendly practicality of Enibrew and the fun of choosing craft beer.
