Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand in Honkomagome, Tokyo, will open from 3 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturday, October 17, 2026. The tap list features 10 beers spanning dry-hopped lagers, hazy and black IPAs, sour ale, gose, bitter, and stout.
Hop BroKomagome’s Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand will be open from 3 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturday, October 17. Ten taps are on—choosing will be half the fun!
MugiWhat?! Ten distinctive beers? My decision-making skills may evaporate before I even see the menu!
Hop BroStart with the 5.5% Amber Lager. It’s dry-hopped, so a crisp lager base gets an extra layer of hop aroma.
MugiWhat is dry hopping, exactly? Do they dry the hops first and toss them in like beer-world beanbags?
Hop BroClose enough—the tossing spirit counts! Hops are added after fermentation to draw out vivid aroma without making the beer overwhelmingly bitter.
MugiWow! So is the 7% Saburo Hazy a deliberately cloudy beer? What if my eyesight gets hazy too?
Hop Bro“Hazy” means cloudy in a Hazy IPA. That haze can bring a soft texture and juicy hop character; compare it with Yoi Yoi IPA or the Black IPA for a hop tour.
MugiA hop tour wasn’t enough, and now there’s Pineapple Gose too?! I’m picturing a pineapple cannonballing into a pint!
Hop BroAt 5%, the Gose brings tanginess and a light salinity that works beautifully with pineapple. There’s also the adventurous Unknown Sour Ale, with berries, rosemary, and Ghanaian cacao husks.
MugiI want the tart ones, the malty 4.5% Best Bitter, and the 7% Belgian stout Kurodori #4! Let’s arrive early for the low-stock pours and toast with a savory cake!
A wide-ranging tap list in Komagome
Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand, a brewpub in Honkomagome, Bunkyo, Tokyo, will be open from 3 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturday, October 17. The bar’s planned lineup covers a broad range of craft beer styles, centered on beers from Hinomoto Brewing.

Also pouring are the 6.5% Mashup IPA Ekuanot, brewed in a Belgian IPA style, the 6% Shinmei Pils West Coast Pilsner, and the 5% Pineapple Gose. For a more malt-forward option, the 4.5% Best bitter presents an English best bitter profile.
The more adventurous choices include the 5.5% Unknown Sour Ale, made with raspberry, blackberry, rosemary, and cacao husk from Ghana, and the 7% Belgian stout Kurodori #4. Some beers are marked as nearly sold out, so guests may want to start with their priority pours.
