Osaka's umbrella RiB Announces Four Fermentary Bottles and 12 Draft Beers
At beer pub umbrella RiB in Toganocho, Osaka, for its Sunday, March 29, 15:00-24:00 service, four bottles from Fermentary in Kashihara, Nara, were announced. Twelve draft beers were on tap, with options for both drinking in and takeaway.
Hop BroToday's news is a restock alert from umbrella RiB in Toganocho, Osaka. For its March 29 service, four bottle releases arrived from Fermentary in Nara, and there are 12 draft beers on tap.
MugiWhoa! Just four bottle releases is exciting enough, but 12 drafts sounds like too many, doesn't it? I don't even know where to start!
Hop BroThe first beers to watch are Fermentary's Kisaragi IPA and Yayoi IPA. The former is a West Coast IPA, while the latter is a juicy IPA, so even though both are IPAs, their directions are completely different.
MugiWhat? West Coast and juicy? Isn't that just a matter of mood? I only picture IPAs as being all about big hop punch!
Hop BroRoughly speaking, West Coast means crisp bitterness, while juicy means fruit-juice-like aroma. So Kisaragi comes across as snappy, while Yayoi leans plush and tropical.
MugiOhhh! Then I'm curious about NICO and DAWN too! A milky ale and a dry-hopped farmhouse ale already sound ridiculously stylish!
Hop BroThat's the fun part. NICO has a soft, smooth mouthfeel, and DAWN is in the aromatic farmhouse style. Farmhouse ales trace back to rural farm breweries that used seasonal ingredients and expressive yeast character, so they're rustic but layered.
MugiWhoa, it suddenly turned into a history lesson! But the draft list is all over the place too, with things like smoked Helles and sour ale. My stomach can't keep up!
Hop BroThat range is exactly umbrella RiB's strength. It's not just IPAs; they have everything from easy-drinking pours to beers that show off malt character, so a side-by-side tasting really reveals how well the lineup is put together.
MugiAnd takeaway bottles are allowed too, which is the best! I'll drink drafts at the shop and, if I like something, take a bottle home with me!
Hop BroExactly. It's also convenient for Umeda, with hours from 5:00 p.m. Monday to Friday and 3:00 p.m. on weekends and holidays until midnight. Today's lineup is the kind that makes you want one drink, then maybe two, or honestly three.
MugiI can't handle this, I just read the article and my throat already wants a beer! Four Fermentary bottles and 12 drafts means the only thing left is to actually go there and raise a glass!
