MugiWhat! They’ve got 10 different beers on tap on a weekday?! That feels like an amazing pre-party before their Wednesday closing day!
Hop BroThe lineup is really broad, with everything from NZ-style beers like Kohatu Pale Ale to the Italian Pilsner called "Ryusososo," plus a Black IPA collaboration with Sanriku Beer.
MugiWhat is this! Names like DH Red Ale and Belgo Brut are lined up there like magic spells!
Hop BroDH stands for Dry Hopped, which means they add hops after fermentation to boost the aroma. Belgo Brut is a saison-style beer, and it’s the type you enjoy for its sharp, bone-dry finish.

Hop BroGood choice! If you like bitterness, the West Coast IPA "Seiten Raimei" at 7.5% will hit hard too. It comes in with straight-up bitterness and aroma.
MugiAnd "White Sheep" and "Black Sheep" together? That sheep siblings collaboration is too cute!
Hop BroThat’s the fun part. White Sheep is a Belgian Hazy IPA with lively yeast character, while Kurotobi #4 is a Belgian Stout with full-on roasted aroma and richness.
MugiI’ve decided! I’m going for a tasting challenge on Tuesday night before closing day, and I’ll start with the yuzu sour saison!
Hop BroNice, start with small glasses and finish with a pint of your favorite. Now I’m itching to head straight to Hongomagome!
