Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand in Honkomagome posted its operating hours for Monday, Aug. 31, from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. The Today’s on Tap list shows eight beers across lager, session, hazy, IPA, gose, bitter, and stout styles.
Hop BroI want to talk about Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand in Hon-Komagome today. They're open on August 31 from 5 to 11 p.m., and the Today’s on Tap list shows eight house beers, which is a seriously good spread.
MugiWhat! Eight beers out of ten taps is almost the full cast! Lager to stout in one go? I am dramatically unprepared for this.
Hop BroThe smart way in is Amber Lager, a Dry Hopped Amber Lager at 5.5%, and Little Thing, a Dry Hopped Session Ale at 4.5%. It gives you an easy opening run, you know?
MugiHold on, What is dry hopping? Is this where someone sprinkles dry hops on top like beer furikake?
Hop BroClose, but not quite. It means adding hops after fermentation to lift aroma without pushing bitterness too hard. Basically, it's an aroma boost move.
MugiOhh, so Saburo Hazy, the 7% Hazy IPA, and Rolling Lolly, the 7.5% American IPA, are basically the hop-festival zone, right?
Hop BroThat is pretty much it. And Mashup IPA Ekuanot is a 6.5% Belgian IPA, so the yeast character and hop profile overlap into a twisty pint.
MugiWhat even is that! Belgian IPA is already too much information for one name, and then there's Pineapple Gose too? My brain is ordering a second notebook.
Hop BroA Belgian IPA mixes spicy, expressive Belgian-yeast character with IPA-style hoppiness. Add Pineapple Gose at 5%, Komagome Best Bitter at 4.5%, and Kurotobi #4 Belgian Stout at 7%, and the drinking order practically writes itself.
MugiStarting with Amber Lager, cruising through Saburo Hazy, and finishing on Kurotobi #4 sounds like a whole trip in one pub! I would absolutely fail at stopping after one glass.
Hop BroFor a brewpub in a residential part of Bunkyo, having lager, gose, bitter, IPA, and stout all lined up like this is strong. It really makes you want to line up the glasses.
MugiThen it's settled! I want to hit it on August 31 and work from the lighter pours to the darker ones. This article totally made me want everything.
The Komagome brewpub Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand announced regular service for Monday, Aug. 31, from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. In its Today’s on Tap lineup, 8 of 10 taps were shown, giving beer fans a broad range to choose from, from lighter session beers to hop-forward IPAs, a fruit-accented gose, a best bitter, and a Belgian stout.
The listed beers were:
- Amber Lager / Dry Hopped Amber Lager, 5.5%
- Little Thing / Dry Hopped Session Ale, 4.5%
- 三郎 Hazy / Hazy IPA, 7%
- Mashup IPA Ekuanot / Belgian IPA, 6.5%
- Rolling Lolly / American IPA, 7.5%
- パイナップルゴーぜ / Gose Style with pineapple, 5%
- 駒込Best Bitter / English Best Bitter, 4.5%
- 黒鳶 #4 / Belgian Stout, 7%
Located in a residential area of Bunkyo-ku, Honkomagome, the brewpub is centered on Hinomoto Brewing’s own beers. This lineup makes it easy to start light with Amber Lager or Little Thing, move into the hazy and IPA section with 三郎 Hazy and Rolling Lolly, and finish on something deeper like 黒鳶 #4. It is the kind of tap list that works both for a single drop-in pint and for a tasting run across styles.
