Hangout opens at noon on August 8 with eight TAROS Brewing taps
Hangout in Hiroshima’s Shintenchi district is open from noon to 10 p.m. on Saturday, August 8. The tap list features eight beers from TAROS Brewing, spanning a DH Sour IPA, West Coast Pilsner, hazy IPAs, a White Stout, and more.
Hop BroToday's lunchtime at hangout looks strong: on August 8 they're open from 12 to 22, and you can dive into TAROS BREWING from noon.
MugiWait, eight beers from noon? That's basically a delicious trap right at the start of the holiday break!
Hop BroAnd the range is huge, from TEMPTATION2026, a DH Sour IPA, all the way to MORNING DELIGHT2026, a White Stout. It's a seriously broad lineup.
MugiWhat is that, DH and TDH? Those sound like cheat codes, not something I should say at a bar!
Hop BroThink of it as extra dry hopping. They add hops later to boost aroma, and TDH is the powered-up version, so the fragrance comes charging forward.
MugiOhhh! So the Hazy IPA crew like ACRUX#2 and ONENESS-DOLCITA- are the juicy, fluffy, aroma-bomb side?
Hop BroExactly. Meanwhile the West Coast side like HAKUNA MATATA and DUMPWEED#3 is sharper, crisper, and more bitter, so the contrast is half the fun.
MugiBut hold on, a white stout? How can it be stout when my eyes are telling me otherwise?
Hop BroThat's the trick. It's a sneaky stout style that can look pale but still give roasted or sweet dessert-like impressions, and MORNING DELIGHT2026 is made for that surprise.
MugiAnd then you've got ARTEMIS as an Imperial Red Ale plus WAVE FLOWER#3 as a Coconut Vanilla IPL, so the tasting flight plan is writing itself!
Hop Brohangout started as a beer specialty shop in 2014, and the TAROS BREWING facility was completed in January 2023, so you really feel the maker-to-tap closeness there. That alone makes me want a pint at noon.
MugiI'm done thinking. It's cheers at noon for me, and then I get to panic over whether to start sour or flip my brain with the White Stout!
