CRAFT Rainbow in Okayama posts a tap update with Mountain River's Pineapple beer and four more
CRAFT Rainbow, a beer pub in Nodayacho, Okayama City, shared its opening notice and tap lineup in an August 23 post. The list includes Mountain River's "鳳梨睥酒," Oni Densetsu's "金鬼ペールエール," and Sapporo Classic, alongside other craft options.
Hop BroThe tap list at CRAFT Rainbow in Okayama is strong. Their August 23 post lined up Mountain River's '鳳梨睥酒,' Oni Densetsu's 'Kin Oni Pale Ale,' five craft taps total, plus Sapporo Classic.
MugiWait, five taps plus Classic? That's not a lineup, that's my throat filing an emergency request.
Hop BroThe eye-catcher is 鳳梨睥酒. The name suggests pineapple, and the article frames it as a fruity pour that feels easy to start with.
MugiWhoa, but fruity kind of pour means what exactly? Beer with fruit vibes, or a tropical vacation wearing a beer costume?
Hop BroThis is where pale ale comes in. It's a style that balances malt depth and hop aroma, so 'Kin Oni Pale Ale' is a good 'real beer, but approachable' kind of glass.
MugiWhat is that, a beer style? I still sort drinks into only two categories: tasty and dangerously tasty!
Hop BroA style is basically beer's category label. Like salt, miso, or tonkotsu in ramen. Y.Market's 'PurpleJetSky' and Hoppokotan Brewery's 'inversion' get more fun when you compare their personalities.
MugiOkay, so an easy tasting entry means I can jump from fruity stuff to pale ale to pilsner-ish beers without my brain rage-quitting.
Hop BroAnd there's happy hour till 7 on weekdays. They're open 3 p.m. to midnight Friday through Monday, 5 p.m. to midnight Tuesday through Thursday, with a non-smoking room and separate smoking space.
MugiPlus Fagiano Okayama match screenings? an Okayama regular sounds exactly right. I can already see myself starting with '鳳梨睥酒' and landing on Sapporo Classic.
Hop BroThat's why one casual drink can easily turn into a proper session there. They also stock sake and shochu, but honestly, that five-tap craft lineup is calling my name.
MugiThen it's settled, I want a toast now. I'll take the fruity opener, and you can do your dramatic aroma-analysis face while we drink.
