Taru Taru in Takamatsu taps Mutsushima Hama Brewery's rauchbier 'Drum Can Meeting'
Beer pub Taru Taru in Kawaramachi, Takamatsu, Kagawa, has featured 'Drum Can Meeting' from Mutsushima Hama Brewery as a guest beer. The 5% rauchbier uses German malt, hops, and hijiki seaweed from Mushima in Kasaoka, delivering a smoked profile with savory depth.
Hop BroToday’s topic is Mutsushimahama Brewery’s Drum Can Meeting on tap at Taru Taru in Kawaramachi, Takamatsu. For a guest beer, it has serious main-character energy.
MugiWait, Drum Can Meeting already sounds chaotic in the best way! It feels like a meeting that starts with a toast instead of an agenda.
Hop BroThe style is a Bamberg-style rauchbier, so you get that classic German smoked-malt character right up front.
MugiWhat is that! Wizard-level vocabulary just appeared. Am I supposed to drink actual smoke?
Hop BroBasically, it’s a beer with smoky aroma, but this one is only 5% ABV and stays light enough to drink easily.
MugiAnd it also uses hijiki from Mutsushima? So now the ocean has joined the recipe too?
Hop BroThat’s the fun part. With German malt and hops, the savory hijiki note comes in underneath the smoke and adds depth.
MugiNo way, and it still has a clean finish? That flavor combo sounds like my brain needs subtitles.
Hop BroThe wild move is that it’s not treated like a novelty side project. It’s positioned as a flagship rauchbier, which is bold.
MugiSo instead of hiding the weirdness, they went with sell the personality? I respect that strategy.
Hop BroExactly. With island ingredients behind it, there’s a whole story in the glass, and Taru Taru sounds like the right place to savor it slowly.
MugiThat settles it. Straight to Taru Taru for smoky aroma, hijiki umami, and a very serious personal tasting meeting.
