Taru Taru in Takamatsu restocks four VERTERE collaboration beers
Taru Taru, a beer pub in Kawaramachi, Takamatsu, has restocked four VERTERE collaboration beers. The lineup spans a boysenberry sour, a modern pilsner, a mango sour, and a hazy DIPA. The bar also says June is an event-free month, leaving more room for relaxed conversation and drinking.
Hop BroTaru Taru in Takamatsu just got four VERTERE collabs back in, and the IPA series showed up too. They’re also keeping June event-free so people can hang out and actually talk over a beer.
MugiWait, that means sour, lager, and hazy stuff all in one lineup? That range is wild!
Hop BroFirst up is Viburnum, the third collab with Inkhorn Brewing. It’s a Boysenberry Sour w/White Chocolate, 6.5%, with bright acidity and a soft creamy finish, basically a berry-sour twist.
MugiWhite chocolate in a sour? My brain just hit traffic jam mode. Is that beer or dessert?
Hop BroThat’s the fun part. It’s not sugary so much as smoothing the edges of the acidity into a creamy finish. Liquid parfait? Officially, probably not.
MugiOkay, then what’s the lighter one? Typhina says Modern Pilsner and I need a translator.
Hop BroTyphina is the first collab with Nara Brewing, 5.5%, inspired by one of their XPAs. Think pilsner drinkability with citrus, white grape, and herbal notes from a hop-forward lager.
MugiYou dropped XPA like it was normal conversation! So basically it’s got first-beer energy?
Hop BroExactly. It keeps the snap of a lager but adds the aroma fun of a pale ale, so in Kawaramachi it feels like a smooth opening pour.
MugiThen Vespa must be the chaos pick, right? Magpie Brewing Co., mango, pineapple, and chili sounds like a tropical party alarm.
Hop BroYep. Vespa is an 8.0% Mango Sour where the chili gives the fruit a sharper outline. Then Collectiophobia, the third collab with Totopia, is an 8.5% Hazy DIPA built around Luminosa hop power.
MugiOkay but then I see IBU 13 and suddenly it feels like homework. Is IBU a scorecard or what?
Hop BroIBU is a bitterness marker, and 13 is pretty gentle. Collectiophobia leans more into orange and pineapple aroma with a silky mouthfeel, so a VERTERE flight at Taru Taru sounds like tonight’s plan.
MugiI’m fully in. Start with Viburnum, reset with Typhina, then go bold with Vespa and Collectiophobia... that drinking order is set.
