Welcome to “Nishikon,” the corner where readers share their experiences of “things I did in Nishinomiya!” (Despite the name, this has absolutely nothing to do with matchmaking or marriage hunting)
Brought to you by Shukugawa Marron.
This time, Shukugawa Marron @ Nishitsuu Reader brings us♪ the craft beer from “Heal Soul Brewery ＆ Tap Bar(ヒールソウル ブリュワリー＆タップバー)” in Honmachi along Route 43!
Here it is on the map ↓
The address is 5-9 Honmachi, Nishinomiya, Hyogo Prefecture.
Craft Beer at “Heal Soul”
They have 6 types of beer in total! I’m such a beer lover that I tried them all 🤣
Numbers 1 through 3 are limited-edition beers for the 1st anniversary! ✨
Fantastic Wave – PILSNER – Small ¥600(tax included)
A clean, refreshing taste with no strong flavor quirks. A great starter for anyone new to beer 🍺
What a beautiful golden yellow! ♡
夕焼けIPA (Sunset IPA) – RED IPA – Medium ¥700(tax included)
“What exactly is IPA(India Pale Ale)?”
IPA originated from beers brewed with large amounts of hops as a preservative and higher alcohol content to survive long ocean voyages. It’s recommended for those who want to savor the aroma and bitterness of beer.
Yellow Submarine – Hazy IPA – Small ¥800(tax included)
Among IPAs, compared to the “夕焼けIPA (Sunset IPA)” above, this one has a fruity flavor and was easier to drink.
RED SHARK – DRY AMBER – Small ¥600(tax included)
It has a distinctive character, and apparently women tend to love this flavor profile.
Seems like it has a lot of secret fans! ✨
COFFEE RUMBA Coffee Rumba ♪ – COFFEE STOUT – They forgot to take a photo of this one~ 🙏
The coffee flavor really comes through, and even though it’s beer, it’s the kind you could enjoy with sweets! ♡
It’s a collaboration beer with neighboring COFFEE HOUSE FIELD! ✨ Even when blended into beer, it still goes great with sweets! ♪
COFFEE SAMBA Coffee Samba ♬ – COFFEE CREAM ALE – They forgot to take a photo of this one too~ 🙏
The color is lighter than the “Coffee Rumba” above, but the coffee flavor is still bold. In fact, this one actually uses more coffee beans. It’s also clean and refreshing as a beer!
I’ve seen carbonated coffee drinks before, but now I’m curious about coffee beer too!
“Heal Soul” Menu
They have hamburgers too! Those would go perfectly with beer! ♡
Heal Soul is a craft beer brewery born in Nishinomiya that opened last year.
They pop up at all sorts of events around Nishinomiya too! ♪
