Nomimonoya in Kagawa adds six Himitsu Beer releases ahead of SBM
Nomimonoya, a beer pub in Busshozan, Takamatsu, has announced a new arrival from Himitsu Beer. The lineup spans a juicy New England IPA, fruit-driven wheat beers, a summer mandarin pale ale, a collaboration ice cream beer, and a yuzu-hinoki blonde.
Hop BroKagawa just got a fresh lineup at Nomimono-ya, and it's six Himitsu Beer pours that feel made for SBM prep.
MugiWhat, a preview flight for SBM? And it jumps from New England IPA to ice cream beer? That range is wild!
Hop BroSECRET HOUSE is a collab with Sam from Little House Brewing, a New England IPA packed with Citra, Simcoe, and Motueka cryo hops.
MugiWait, cryo hops? Are those frozen power-up hops or something? That sounds like a final-boss ingredient!
Hop BroBasically it's super concentrated hop aroma, and they also add oat powder to the kettle, so even at 7% it still feels silky and juicy.
MugiWhoa, then what does Wani Stachio even taste like? The name sounds like a pistachio shop run by crocodiles!
Hop BroIt's a pistachio weizen, with banana-and-clove yeast character, nutty aroma, and a surprisingly dry, crisp finish.
MugiNo way, and there's Banature too? Banana plus vanilla in secondary fermentation is basically drinkable banana cake!
Hop BroThat's classic Himitsu Beer energy, and ORCA and GATE8. round it out perfectly. One is a food-friendly natsumikan pale ale, the other a light blonde with yuzu and hinoki.
MugiAnd Himitsu no Melon is a 3% ice cream beer, right? That's not prep anymore, that's a field trip!
Hop BroExactly, the range across all six is the whole appeal. IPA fans, fruit-beer drinkers, and low-ABV people all get something fun.
MugiThen it's settled: I want a Kagawa beer crawl and I need to start with SECRET HOUSE before finishing on Himitsu no Melon!
New arrivals at Nomimonoya
Nomimonoya, a beer pub in Busshozan, Takamatsu, has received a fresh batch from Himitsu Beer. The post frames the release as an "SBM preview" and introduces six beers with very different personalities.
The lineup
- SECRET HOUSE
A New England-style IPA brewed with Sam from Little House Brewing in Connecticut. Built with Citra, Simcoe, and Motueka cryo hops plus oat powder added directly to the kettle, it is designed to be silky, juicy, and intensely aromatic, with notes of mango, orange, and ripe peach.
- ワニスタチオ / Pistachio Weizen 5.5%
A wheat beer that blends classic banana and clove-like yeast character with pistachio. The result is nutty, aromatic, and dry on the finish.
- バナチュール / Banana Vanilla Weizen 5.5%
A banana-and-vanilla wheat beer made through secondary fermentation. It leans into banana bread and banana-cake aromatics while staying relatively dry and easy to drink.
- ORCA / Natsumikan Pale Ale 5%
A seasonal pale ale made with fully ripe home-grown summer mandarins. The base beer stays clean and crisp, while citrus aroma and gentle bitterness add freshness and balance.
- ひみつのメロン / Ice cream beer 3%
A collaboration with Imuraya inspired by the classic melon ball candy treat. Light at 3%, it turns a familiar melon flavor into a playful beer format.
- GATE8. / Yuzu Hinoki Blonde 5%
Part of the GATE series, brewed each year for the anniversary of Mon Sakaba in Ise. Bright yuzu aroma and hinoki wood notes shape a light, approachable blonde ale.
Nomimonoya is known as a craft beer pub in the Busshozan area of Takamatsu, and this release range shows why that format works so well: IPA, wheat beer, fruit beer, and low-ABV options all sit side by side. It is a lineup that invites side-by-side tasting, whether the goal is SBM preparation or simply a meal with well-matched beers.
