Six beers, including Nara Brewing's "LOCOMOTION," are tapped at Beer Space On Tap
The Motomachi, Kobe beer pub "Beer Space On Tap" updated its tap list on Instagram. Featuring Nara Brewing's "LOCOMOTION," the lineup also includes labels from Uchoten Brewing, T.Y HARBOR BREWERY, and Y.MARKET BREWING, with a relaxed Sunday service starting at 3 p.m.
Hop BroThe tap update at Beer Space On Tap, underground in Motomachi, Kobe, is really solid this time.
MugiWhoa! An underground beer pub feels like a secret base! A compact space with 11 seats sounds like the perfect place to relax.
Hop BroExactly. And the star this time is Nara Brewing LOCOMOTION. It's an AMERICAN IPA with 6.5% ABV and 25 IBU.
MugiJust hearing AMERICAN IPA sounds intense! Does IBU 25 mean the higher the number, the more bitter it is?
Hop BroPretty much, yes. But this one doesn't let the bitterness run wild. It's the kind that slips down smoothly with a clean finish.
MugiOh wow! Grapefruit-like citrus and pineapple aroma too? I'd want a second pour just from the aroma alone!
Hop BroThe lineup is interesting too, with Uchoten Brewing's Jazz NITRO ver., T.Y HARBOR BREWERY's wheat ale, and two beers from Y.MARKET BREWING as well.
MugiWhat a lineup! Having two hop-forward beers too makes me feel like Hop Bro is getting so excited his eyes are turning into hops!
Hop BroNITRO is poured with nitrogen, so the mouthfeel gets smoother. The soft, fluffy foam that rises and spreads gently, like jazz, is what makes it nice.
MugiAnd Sunday opens at 3 p.m.? That is the best for daytime drinking... I want to really take my time in Motomachi's quiet underground space!
Hop BroThen let's start with something light for the first glass and move on to a hop-forward pour next. At this point, I can't wait to go.
MugiYeah! Drinking in the daytime in Kobe and working through LOCOMOTION one beer at a time is absolutely a win!
