One's Brewery

Well-thought-out decor with unique lighting and nice view of the city. Only a couple of their beers (brewed off-premises), but decent ones. Others on taps were from reliable Japanese craft brewers like Swan Lake or Ise Kadoya. They use their own glassware, 500ml for 980, 300ml for 680, decent pours. Only open a year, hope they do well.

A stylish brewpub on the 8th floor, overlooking the river. Plenty of wood, concrete and brick in addition to the shiny brewery equipment. Sadly there was just one of their own beers and six guests. I’m guessing that the lovely looking brewing equipment is rarely used. Shame. Awesome view. No English spoken here, but the staff did their best. Working Wi-Fi. Would not be somewhere I would come back to for the beer, but you can’t deny that the view is awesome.

Place very close to the canal. I went to the 9th floor. One of their brew and 6 guests. ONLY ONE OF THEIR BREW. For a brewpub that's the minimum... and a bit of a deception. A Kölsh. Good one though. Good list of food, looks good, I just took pickles. The view is great by day or night. No flights but they have 150ml tastings (380-480¥) so that's ok. The decor is between the fancy and the faux-old school, all is wood and steel. I liked it. Not enough beer diversity but interesting enough to stop by, have a round or two with some appetizers.

Kind of a snazzy, somewhat flashy, place in the rapidly developing Kitahama section of Osaka.Visited during their opening week. The congratulatory large gift flower arrangements all over. Sort of an upscale Disney-fied faux steampunk decor, with pipes and tubes and industrial valves (especially in the 9th-floor restaurant) lining the wall..The place has a mildly corporate feel. The parent company is some sort of manufacturer of valves. Quite overstaffed. In fact, the servers were often in the way, when we tried to move around, and often in each other's way, too. Six taps in the brewpub area, and 15 taps in the small 9th-floor area (probably should be the reverse). The pub area has long, high tables, with seating for maybe 30 people or so, and the bar can handle maybe eight people. Only one of their beers, a kolsch, available at this point, and five guest taps. Prices: 120ml taster for Y380 / 300ml for 880 / 500ml for 1,180. I might be back.

Provisional rating, as it has only been open a week. Smooth industrial design with great views out over the river. 8th floor is pub, 9th is a higher-end restaurant with 1 set meal (¥3800) and better views. They had 6 beers on but capacity for 10 downstairs, 15 upstairs. They are brewing their single beer elsewhere until they get the license. Worth a stop when you are in the neighborhood, especially once they get more of their beers on. ¥980 / pint for their beer, a bit more for guests. Sausages and ham plates were quite good.
