Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand posts 7-beer tap list for Aug. 1, with Potechi Dog pop-up
Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand in Hon-Komagome, Tokyo, posted its August 1 service update. The day's Today's on Tap lineup includes seven beers, from Sauvin Belgo to Black Tobi #4, plus a guest-chef Potechi Dog pop-up.
Hop BroToday's story is that Hinomoto Brewing posted its August 1 hours, 5 to 11 p.m., along with a seven-tap lineup.
MugiWait, seven taps? That lineup is basically saying, "whatever mood you're in, I got you!"
Hop BroThat reaction is fair. Belgo to stout is a big spread: Sauvin Belgo is an American Belgo-style ale, Mashup IPA Ekuanot is a Belgian IPA, and Kurotobi #4 is a Belgian stout.
MugiWhat even is Belgo style? Is that a beer where five bells start ringing or something?
Hop BroClose, but no marching band. Belgian yeast character is the point here, and Sauvin Belgo is a 6% ale built around that fruity, spicy vibe.
MugiOoh, okay. Then for a first glass, Ryusui Soso #2 sounds like the easy starter?
Hop BroVery solid call. Italian Pilsner means crisp lager energy with dry-hop aroma on top, and if you want more hop punch, Rolling Lolly and Mashup IPA Ekuanot are right there.
MugiHold on, Pineapple Gose already sounds like a beach vacation. Is that one dangerously easy to drink?
Hop BroDangerous maybe, but mostly irresistible. Soft tartness with a little salinity is the gose move, and if you want something calmer, Komagome Best Bitter at 4.5% is also on deck.
MugiAnd there's a Potato Chip Dog pop-up too? Add food to seven beers and my sense of when to leave just disappears.
Hop BroNanami-chan is bringing three versions, standard, ume, and chirimen sansho, and the whole night just begs for a Kurotobi #4 finish with that roasty close.
MugiThat's it, I need a drink in Komagome now. I'll start with Ryusui Soso #2, you grab Rolling Lolly, and we're ordering every Potato Chip Dog.
The Komagome brewpub Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand posted its August 1 service update. Hours are 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. A guest-chef Potechi Dog pop-up by Nanami is also scheduled, adding a food option alongside the beer.
The day's `Today's on Tap` lineup covers Belgian-inspired ales, pilsner, IPA, gose, bitter, and stout.
- `Sauvin Belgo` / American Belgo Style Ale, 6%
- `流水草々 #2` / Italian Pilsner, 5.5%
- `Mashup IPA Ekuanot` / Belgian IPA, 6.5%
- `Rolling Lolly` / American IPA, 7.5%
- `パイナップルゴーぜ` / Gose Style with pineapple, 5%
- `駒込Best Bitter` / English Best Bitter, 4.5%
- `黒鳶 #4` / Belgian Stout, 7%
For hop-forward drinking, `Rolling Lolly` and `Mashup IPA Ekuanot` are the obvious picks. If you want something lighter, `流水草々 #2` fits the bill, while `パイナップルゴーぜ` adds a fruit-driven sour note and `黒鳶 #4` closes things out with a Belgian stout profile.
The Potechi Dog pop-up was listed in three versions - standard, ume plum, and chirimen sansho - with potato and edamame pickles on the side. It is a well-rounded tap list for anyone wanting to see what this local brewpub is pouring at the start of August.
