Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand posts June 18 tap list with nine house beers
Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand in Komagome, Tokyo, shared its June 18 (Thu.) tap list. The lineup centers on nine house beers, ranging from Belgian-leaning styles and IPA to pilsner, bitter, brown saison, and stout.
Hop BroKomagome is looking dangerous today because Hinomoto Brewing just dropped its June 18 tap list, and nine house-made beers is enough to start a serious plan.
MugiWait, nine house beers in one place? That's not a tap list, that's a side quest!
Hop BroAnd the range is huge too. Sauvin Belgo is an American Belgo Style Ale at 6%, so you get expressive yeast character and hop aroma in the same glass.
MugiHold on, Belgian-leaning? You can't just toss that out like everyone studied beer wizardry!
Hop BroFair point. It basically means yeast-driven aroma with fruity and spicy notes. If I say esters and phenols, just translate that as 'smells fun' and we're good.
MugiOoh, then Yunosu Saison being a yuzu sour saison means that's the bright, refreshing slot, right?
Hop BroExactly. And Ryusui Soso #2 is the new Italian Pilsner at 5.5%, with clean lager snap and a little extra hop lift.
MugiWhat is that even! Italian but pilsner sounds like the name itself showed up carrying two passports!
Hop BroThat confusion is part of the charm. Think of it as a pils that's easy-drinking but aromatic. Then Seiten Raimei #2 covers the West Coast IPA lane at 7.5% with firm bitterness.
MugiSo it can go bright, bitter, and cozy in one run? Kurotobi #4 as a Belgian stout for the finale sounds ridiculously good.
Hop BroAnd it's a brewpub near Komagome Station where you can talk to the people making the beer. I'm also stuck on the peach-pineapple batch they're brewing with salt and coriander for next month.
MugiThat's it, we're going. From 5 to 11 p.m., one Komagome session starting with Yunosu Saison and ending with Kurotobi #4 sounds exactly right!
Tap list for June 18
Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand is open from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. on Thursday, June 18. The venue keeps its Wednesday closure and continues to serve a brewer-driven, house-brewed lineup in its Komagome taproom.
On tap
- Sauvin Belgo / American Belgo Style Ale, 6%
- ぺーぺーぺー / Norwegian Pale Ale, 5.5%
- 晴天雷鳴 #2 / West coast IPA, 7.5%
- (NEW) 流水草々 #2 / Italian Pilsner, 5.5%
- Yunosu Saison / Yuzu Sour Saison, 6%
- 駒込Brown / Brown Saison, 6%
- 駒込Best Bitter / English Best Bitter, 4.5%
- EL BAMP HAZY / Hazy IPA, 7%
- 黒鳶 #4 / Belgian Stout, 7%
This is a wide-ranging lineup: Belgian-leaning beers sit alongside a West Coast IPA, an Italian pilsner, a bitter, a brown saison, a hazy IPA, and a Belgian stout. That makes it a strong stop for drinkers who want to compare styles side by side.
The bar sits on the first floor of a building in Honkomagome, Bunkyo, within walking distance of Komagome Station. As a brewpub, it offers the kind of close-up taproom experience where the people behind the beer are part of the visit. The post also mentions a peach pineapple batch from Okinawa with salt and coriander, now being prepared for a release planned for early next month.
