Osaka’s CRAFT BEER BASE BUD Updates Its 4/13 Tap List with 10 Beers
CRAFT BEER BASE BUD (Umeda, Osaka) has released its tap list for April 13. The lineup includes 10 beers such as CRAFT BEER BASE × Matt Brynildson's "Gentle Lion," Firestone Walker's "UNION JACK," and Baeren Brewery's "Mai Bock."
Hop BroCRAFT BEER BASE BUD’s 4/13 tap update in Osaka’s Umeda is doing something pretty interesting again. Gentle Lion, UNION JACK, even Mai Bock are all lined up, so the range is pretty wide.
MugiWhoa, they updated it to 10 beers!? Being able to follow that many different beers at one place is a little too much information, my brain is turning into foam!
Hop BroThe venue is on B2F of Osaka Ekimae No. 1 Building, open from 16:00 to 22:30, with beer last order at 22:00. It is easy to stop by after work, and starting with a standout like Gentle Lion feels like the right move.
MugiGentle Lion sounds strong, but what does it taste like? When I hear lion, I just imagine something super bitter going roar!
Hop BroThat is the interesting part. It is centered on IPA styles, but it also includes Hazy TIPA, Brett IPA, and barrel-aged stout. In other words, it is a traffic jam of styles, where you can travel in one night from flashy aromatics to deep richness.
MugiWow, that sounds like the fun kind of chaos! And UNION JACK is back, so it feels like the fans were waiting for it. Just the name makes it sound like the hops hit hard!
Hop BroExactly. Firestone Walker's UNION JACK is one of the hop-forward beers they specifically call out in the description. With something as crisp as One Louder in the mix too, you can build a flow that does not wear you out.
MugiWait, wait, what even is merlot pomace!? My brain is having a meeting about whether this is wine or beer!
Hop BroIt is a type of grape pomace, and when used in a mixed-culture table beer like Live By The Sun & Moon, it adds a gentle acidity and fruitiness. In other words, it is a beer at the crossroads of beer and wine, and that makes it especially distinctive and interesting.
MugiI see, so BUD is not just a place to drink, but a place you want to follow in order. If you feel the malt depth with Mai Bock and then finish with something hop-forward, you might not want to leave!
Hop BroExactly. Tonight in Umeda's underground, it feels like the kind of night where you will want to compare hop character side by side, flowing from Gentle Lion to UNION JACK and ending with Mai Bock.
MugiYeah, I cannot hold back anymore! I want to try a beer right now, one tap at a time at BUD!
