HOP MAN, a beer pub in Chigasaki, Kanagawa, has announced a new tap for Kyoto Brewing’s "Tentaikanbo." The beer is a collaboration with West Coast Brewing and is listed in English as Stargazor. It is a Hazy Double IPA with 8.0% ABV and 40 IBU.
The brewery’s description frames the beer around a "dank & diesel" concept, aiming for both intensity and easy drinkability. Aromas lean toward bright citrus and tropical fruit, with a subtle dank note layered in. The result is described as juicy and full-flavored, yet also silky and soft on the palate.
The name draws on a night under a meteor shower, giving the beer a story that matches its cosmic title. At HOP MAN, a second-floor beer pub in central Chigasaki, this kind of guest beer fits the room well: a place to slow down, order a fresh tap, and follow the details of a carefully built collaboration beer.
