DD4D keg tapped at Beer Stand Amberlond, Be Easy Brewing 10th anniversary event on 5/9
Beer Stand Amberlond in Honcho, Sendai, will be open from 4:00 p.m. on Friday, 5/8. On draft, it will tap DD4D's "Buddha Hands Citrus Hazy IPA," and a Be Easy Brewing 10th anniversary event is also planned for Saturday, 5/9.
Hop BroMugi-chan, the Honcho, Sendai beer pub Beer Stand Amberlond is really heating up. On 5/8, it opens at 4:00 p.m. and keeps rolling through the draft taps all day.
MugiWhoa! And opening at 4:00 p.m. means I can go with full after-school energy. That’s the kind of thing my post-work brain loves!
Hop BroThe star is DD4D's Buddha Hands Citrus Hazy IPA. A Hazy IPA is a style of IPA with a cloudy appearance that brings hop aroma to the forefront while keeping the mouthfeel soft.
MugiHuh! But why are Hazy IPAs so, well, hazy? Are they deliberately making them cloudy?
Hop BroExactly. It comes from the wort components and the way the hops are used. Here they also have DD4D's Buddha Hands Buddha's Hand Hazy IPA, so the fun part is comparing the citrus and Buddha's hand aromas side by side.
MugiThat sounds amazing! And the range for tasting comparisons is so big it feels like I could travel the world in one bar!
Hop BroThe lineup is strong too. From Kirin's Ichiban Shibori Premium to Black Tide's saison, West Coast Brewing's HAZY D-IPA, and Weihenstephaner's weizenbock, they're cycling through 8 to 10 draft beers that change daily.
MugiWait, a saison and a weizenbock too!? It’s like a beer textbook on the shelf. I feel tipsy just from the names!
Hop BroAnd then on 5/9, they’re hosting the Be Easy Brewing 10th anniversary event. It runs from 3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., and with DD4D, West Coast Brewing, and AQ Bevolution all showing up, the place should be packed both inside and out.
MugiIf there’s Towada bara-yaki and igamentchi too, that’s basically the perfect set of beer-stealing snacks. I have no choice but to drink, or rather, our night is about to begin!
Draft lineup for 5/8
Beer Stand Amberlond is a beer pub in Honcho, Sendai. With about 18 seats, the small interior includes a counter, a terrace, and standing-room elements, and its signature is serving 8 to 10 draft beers that change daily.
In this day’s post, the shop announced that on Friday, 5/8, it will open at 4:00 p.m., with availability from 4:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. The highlight is the tapping of DD4D's "Buddha Hands Citrus Hazy IPA," and DD4D's "Buddha Hands Buddha's Hand Hazy IPA" is also being added to the taps. Other beers on the list include Kirin's "Ichiban Shibori Premium," Ishinomaki H&W T.Y. Harbor's "Chili Break Water IPL," Black Tide's "Tsutsuji Saison," Be Easy Brewing's "Freestyle Fest 2026 IPA," West Coast Brewing's "Full Hop Alchemist r8 HAZY D-IPA," Pizza Port's "Swami's IPA," 8BIT & BRUJOS' "Ludus Occulta WC-IPA," Trillium's "Fort Point IPA," and Weihenstephaner's "Fitus Weizenbock."
The selection spans IPA, saison, and weizenbock, making it easy to set up a wide range of tasting comparisons at a single spot. The shop also says it regularly rotates imported European beers and seasonal brews, and the lineup reflects the thoughtful approach of a beer pub that also pays attention to glassware.
The post also announced a Be Easy Brewing 10th anniversary event from 3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. on the following day, Saturday, 5/9. Visitors from Ehime's DD4D, Shizuoka's West Coast Brewing, and AQ Bevolution are also scheduled to stop by, so in addition to the draft lineup, the day should be a lively one using both the indoor space and the outdoor seating. Food will include Towada bara-yaki and igamentchi, making it a chance to enjoy beer-friendly snacks as well.
