Hop BroNice catch. Basically, it's an event where one brewery takes over the draft lineup at the pub. This time it's Mame Mame Beer, a small-batch brewery that puts Shodoshima's local ingredients front and center.
MugiOhhh! So the island ingredients are the main feature of the flavor, right? Lemon, citrus, and just the aroma alone already makes me hungry!
Hop BroThe lineup is full of distinctive beers too. Shiro Mame Mame is a white ale with lemon and herbs layered together, and Aka Mame Mame is a red ale with island citrus aroma.
MugiWhat is that! Midori Mame Mame sounds energetic just from the name, and an IPA with vanilla beans is basically a dessert beer!
Hop BroExactly. UMESUMOMO is a sour saison with plum and Japanese plum tartness, and Makkuro Mame Mame is an imperial stout made with soy sauce mash, so the range is nicely balanced from light to rich.
MugiWow, that's perfect for a pre-summer tasting comparison. And the brewer will be there too, so hearing that there's no cover charge makes me feel like I have to go!

A tap takeover welcoming the Shodoshima brewery Mame Mame Beer has been announced at the beer pub Taru Taru in Kawaramachi, Takamatsu City. In an Instagram post, the venue teased, "This Friday!" and announced a lineup that lets guests enjoy five beers at once.
Mame Mame Beer is a small-batch brewery that incorporates fruit and local specialties from Shodoshima.

- Aka Mame Mame: A red ale scented with island citrus
- Midori Mame Mame (yellow-green): A juicy IPA with bright hop aromas. Finished rich with vanilla beans
- UMESUMOMO: A sour saison with a refreshing tartness made with plum and Japanese plum, a double-plum beer from Shodoshima
- Makkuro Mame Mame: An imperial stout made with long-aged soy sauce mash
Timed for the approach of summer, the lineup ranges widely from light beers to dark styles. The post also says the brewer will be there, and the event will be held with no cover charge. It looks like a good chance to taste Shodoshima-born craft beer all in one place in the Kawaramachi area.
