hangout pours TAROS BREWING’s new CLOSE TO ME#2 with eight taps
Hiroshima beer pub hangout opened from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. on August 13. Its Instagram post highlighted TAROS BREWING’s new can release, CLOSE TO ME#2, alongside an eight-beer tap lineup including ONENESS-DOLCITA-.
Hop BroToday, Hiroshima's hangout is looking stacked, with new can CLOSE TO ME#2 and a full eight taps for August 13.
MugiWhat! Eight taps at once means I'm about to have a very happy decision crisis!
Hop BroAnd hangout is a pub attached to TAROS BREWING, so the lineup swings from hazy to sour to lager to stout.
MugiWhoa! But DDH on TOPOLOGY#11 and TDH on ONENESS-DOLCITA-... that's a lot of alphabet energy for one menu!
Hop BroEasy fix, it basically means extra dry hopping. They add hops after fermentation for aroma, and DDH is double while TDH is triple.
MugiNo way, that's like three levels of hop homework, except this class sounds delicious!
Hop BroOn draft, ONENESS-DOLCITA- is down to the last keg, and once it's gone they switch to the next beer, which is very taproom drama.
MugiLast keg? Panic! And with DUMPWEED#3 as a West Coast IPA plus HAKUNA MATATA as a West Coast Pilsner, the crisp side of the lineup is strong too!
Hop BroThen WAVE FLOWER#3 as a Coconut Vanilla IPL and MORNING DELIGHT2026 bring the White Stout twist, so you get sweet aromatics and that roasty kind of satisfaction too.
MugiA stout that's not dark? My brain is buffering, but my thirst is already fully updated!
MugiIf they're open 5 to 10 p.m., and might close early after 9 with no guests, then I want to run to hangout now! I need the can and the draft.
Hop BroExactly, I want the new can and last keg before they're gone, then I can chase the hop depth, roast notes, and coconut character in one round.
hangout on August 13
The Hiroshima brewpub hangout was open from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. on August 13. In its Instagram update, the venue introduced TAROS BREWING’s new can release, CLOSE TO ME#2, and noted that the keg of ONENESS-DOLCITA- was down to its last one keg before moving on to the next beer.
hangout opened in 2014 as a beer-focused shop, and TAROS BREWING’s brewery was completed there in January 2023. As a brewery-adjacent pub, the appeal here is the range: hazy IPA, sour, lager, and stout all share the same board.
