Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand in Honkomagome pours nine house beers on June 6
Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand in Honkomagome, Tokyo, is open on Saturday, June 6, from 3 p.m. to 10 p.m. The tap list features nine house beers, and a pop-up by nearby self-roasting siphon coffee shop Coffee Folk will serve a European-style beef curry from 3 p.m.
Hop BroToday’s topic is Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand. They’re opening at 3 PM on June 6 with nine beers on tap and even a curry pop-up.
MugiWhat! Nine beers on tap means my whole afternoon would vanish in a tasting spiral. And there’s curry too?
Hop BroThe best part is the really wide range. You’ve got the Belgian-leaning Sauvin Belgo, the West Coast IPA Seiten Raimei #2, and the Italian Pilsner Ryusui Soso #2.
MugiWhoa, but Italian Pilsner? What is that supposed to be? It sounds like beer that arrives with pasta.
Hop BroThink of it like an extra hop lift. You keep the crisp snap of a pilsner, then add bright aroma and a firmer, tidier bitterness.
MugiOkay, that helps! But Yunosu Saison and Komagome Best Bitter already have dangerously tempting names.
Hop BroYunosu Saison is a yuzu-accented sour saison, and Komagome Brown plus Komagome Best Bitter bring serious local character to the lineup.
MugiHold on, what does brewpub actually mean? It sounds powerful, but I’m guessing it’s not a special attack move.
Hop BroNot a special move. It means the place brews beer and serves it right there, so you get that fresh-on-site magic in every pour.
MugiAnd then from 3 PM, Coffee Folk shows up with European-style beef curry? My stomach is not prepared for this level of planning.
Hop BroAnd it’s a small snack-style portion with baguette, so between Kurotobi #4 Belgian Stout and EL BAMP HAZY, it’s perfect for a quick bite.
MugiThat settles it. First glass: Seiten Raimei #2, then curry in the middle, and I want to end up gloriously happy. Hop Bro, you’re coming too!
