Taru Taru to Celebrate Third Anniversary with Shirosuzume Weizen on November 8
Taru Taru, a beer pub in Takamatsu, Kagawa, will hold a third-anniversary event on November 8. The pub has commissioned Shirosuzume to brew a celebratory Weizen inspired by classic German examples, with dumplings, fish shumai, sausages, and fish and chips planned for the food menu.
Hop BroTaru Taru, a beer pub in Kawaramachi, Takamatsu, is holding its third-anniversary event on November 8. It runs from 3 to 10 p.m., with no cover charge!
MugiWhat?! Seven hours with no cover? I need to write that into my calendar in beer foam!
Hop BroThe star is an anniversary beer brewed by Hakujaku: a classic German-style Weizen. It draws inspiration from Hakujaku's signature "Kamitemari," but leans even more German.
MugiWait, what is a Weizen beer exactly? It sounds like the name of a powerful finishing move!
Hop BroWeizen is a German wheat beer, known for its soft, smooth mouthfeel. It often has banana- and clove-like notes, with restrained bitterness.
MugiWhoa, banana-like beer aromas without adding fruit? The yeast is basically a wizard!
Hop BroThose aromas come mainly from fermentation; beer geeks call them esters and phenols. During the brew visit, the owner was surrounded by a sweet malt-candy aroma.
MugiA brewery wrapped in malt-candy fragrance... I might toast with the aroma alone. Though I may start fermenting before the beer does!
Hop BroThe food lineup is serious too: Yorozutsumiya Umezu's Gyoza Bancho project is planning fish shumai for the beer, plus unusual sausages and possibly fish and chips.
MugiGyoza, shumai, sausages, and maybe fried fish? Add wheat beer and fried food, and my stomach will throw its own anniversary party!
Hop BroA fragrant, gentle Weizen should pair beautifully with all that savory food and stay easy to drink. A Takamatsu autumn toast sounds pretty perfect.
MugiAbsolutely! On November 8, I want to enjoy Hakujaku's anniversary Weizen at Taru Taru with all that delicious food!
A third-anniversary celebration in Takamatsu
Taru Taru, a craft beer pub located in Kawaramachi, Takamatsu, will celebrate its third anniversary with an event on Sunday, November 8. Although the pub’s actual anniversary is November 11, the celebration will run from 3:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Entry is planned to be free of charge.
The featured beer will be an anniversary brew commissioned from Shirosuzume. The owner visited the brewery during the brewing process and described being surrounded by a gentle, malt-candy-like aroma as the beer came together.
For the style, Taru Taru chose a Weizen, a style the pub says is relatively uncommon among Japanese breweries. The beer was developed to be closer to a classical German Weizen than Shirosuzume’s well-known “Kamite Mari,” while still being easy to drink over several glasses. A tasting reportedly revealed an especially aromatic beer, making it a fitting choice for the cooler, crisp atmosphere of autumn.
Food designed for the beer
The event will also feature a special dumpling project by Yorozu Tsumiya Umetsu. Fish shumai is being developed to pair with the beer, while sausages in a different style from the pub’s usual menu are also planned. Fish and chips are another candidate, selected for their expected compatibility with the Weizen.
With its relaxed beer-pub setting in Takamatsu’s Kawaramachi district, Taru Taru will offer an opportunity to enjoy a new Shirosuzume anniversary beer alongside food created specifically for the occasion.
