CraftBeerSpot Hathor in Kyobashi pours Shatterspike and a wide draft lineup on 8/30
CraftBeerSpot Hathor in Osaka's Kyobashi district shared its draft lineup for 8/30. The featured new tap is Shatterspike from Unsung, a West Coast IPA, alongside a broad mix of lagers, sours, pale ales, and IPAs across 16 taps.
Hop BroToday, Craft Beer Spot Hathor in Kyobashi, Osaka dropped a seriously good August 30 tap list. The featured fresh pour is Shatter Spike from Unsung, and that is a main event beer right away.
MugiWait, sixteen taps total? Lager to sour to IPA in one shop? That is not a bar, that is a flavor amusement park!
Hop BroAnd Hathor has been around since 2015, with house-smoked food too. It is the kind of place where you want to slow down and compare pours.
MugiOkay, but Shatter Spike is a West Coast IPA, right? And what is double dry hopping, some kind of advanced hop gymnastics?
Hop BroNot gymnastics, just extra aroma. Double dry hopping means layering hop aroma after fermentation, and here Citra and Mosaic push out peach, magnolia, and citrus notes.
MugiWhat is that, a bonus hop round? Also, Arrogant Bastard Ale sounds like it would judge me before I order it.
Hop BroIt kind of would. It is an American strong ale from Arrogant Consortia, part of the Stone lineage, with firm malt and a punchy bitterness.
MugiWow, that sounds like a beer that stands with its arms crossed. Then the 37th Anniversary Golden Ale from Karl Strauss is the classy one?
Hop BroExactly, and it is bourbon barrel aged. You get layers that hint at coffee, oak, and whiskey on the finish, so it drinks with real depth.
MugiThen you have Yorimichi no Lager, Kin Oni Pale Ale, Strawberry Sour Ale, Weiss IPA... the bench is too deep! I would need a strategy board just to order round one.
Hop BroThat is why pacing matters. The best drinking order plan is to start with an easy lager or sour, then move into Shatter Spike and Arrogant Bastard later.
MugiAnd with smoked food on the side, this is a full Kyobashi emergency! I want to start gentle and finish with a full hop standing ovation.
Hop BroThat is the move. A slow compare-each-pour night at Hathor, smoked bites in between, and Shatter Spike near the finish sounds perfect.
MugiNope, I am done pretending to be calm, I want a pint now! Shatter Spike and Arrogant Bastard both need to happen today.
CraftBeerSpot Hathor in Kyobashi, Osaka, continues to offer a beer-focused lineup that suits slow tasting sessions. The pub opened in 2015, runs 16 draft lines, and also serves house-smoked food, making it a comfortable spot for pairing beer with food.
