Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand releases its June 13 tap list with 9 house beers
Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand in Komagome, Tokyo, has published its tap list for Saturday, June 13. The lineup spans nine house beers, including Sauvin Belgo, Seitan Raimei #2, Ryūsui Sōsō #2, and EL BAMP HAZY.
Hop BroHinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand just dropped its June 13 tap list, and it's a strong one. In Komagome, they're pouring nine house-brewed beers, so this is not an easy day to skip.
MugiWhat, nine house brews? My brain would start foaming before I even picked a glass!
Hop BroAnd the lineup has range. Sauvin Belgo is an American Belgo Style Ale, Seiten Raimei #2 is a West Coast IPA, Ryusui Soso #2 is an Italian Pilsner, and EL BAMP HAZY is in there too.
MugiHold on, Italian Pilsner? What is that? A pilsner that fermented next to pasta?
Hop BroNo pasta in the tank. Think a hop-lifted lager: crisp like a pilsner, but with brighter floral hop aroma layered on top.
MugiOhhh! Then what about West Coast IPA? The name Seiten Raimei #2 already sounds like it might strike my tongue with lightning.
Hop BroThat one is about clean, firm bitterness and a dry finish. Then Yunosu Saison swings the other way as a Yuzu Sour Saison, and Komagome Best Bitter plus EL BAMP HAZY make the whole list feel huge.
MugiWhoa, Komagome Brown and Kurotobi #4 too? From Belgian-ish stuff to hazy, bitter, and stout, this tap list is less a menu and more a tiny beer expo!
Hop BroAnd the brewpub itself is a beer-first kind of place. They focus on Japanese craft beer, and even the snacks like kaki-pea and dagashi keep the spotlight on what's in the glass.
MugiThat is unfair, because now I want to go to Komagome immediately! I'll start with Ryusui Soso #2, you grab Seiten Raimei #2, and we're absolutely drinking.
June 13 tap list
Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand in Komagome ran normal service on Saturday, June 13. In the caption, the brewery noted that it would also be out pouring at the Tsukishinobashi night market "Chitoyo" the same day, and that it would join the 8th anniversary beer picnic at Crank Beer on Sunday, June 14.
The day’s `Today’s on Tap` leaned heavily on house beers. `Sauvin Belgo` was listed as an American Belgo Style Ale, `Pēpēpē` as a Norwegian Pale Ale, `Seitan Raimei #2` as a West Coast IPA, `Ryūsui Sōsō #2` as an Italian Pilsner, and `Yunosu Saison` as a Yuzu Sour Saison. The lower half of the board added `Komagome Brown`, `Komagome Best Bitter`, `EL BAMP HAZY`, and `Kurotobi #4`, giving the tap room a wide spread from Belgian-influenced beers to bitter, hazy, and stout.
The venue is a brewpub in Bunkyo, Tokyo, with hours set at 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. on weekdays and 3 p.m. to 10 p.m. on weekends and holidays, closed on Wednesdays. It is a straightforward beer-first space: house craft beer, a compact tap room, and snack-style food that keeps the focus on the glass.
