RAKU BEER lines up 15 taps of Japanese craft in a 17-seat Mikawa-cho room, pulling kegs from small breweries nationwide, English menu on the counter.
Tip: Take one of the five counter seats facing the taps; weekend pours start at 13:00 and the room goes dark on Tuesdays.
Hiroshima Neighborly Brewing brews a short walk from Peace Memorial Park and pours the results across the bar at its own charcoal-grill brewpub in Otemachi.
Tip: The brewpub sits alongside the tanks, so you can see the kit from the table while the charcoal grill runs.
Sessions Brewery brews in 100 to 150 litre batches at Tokaichimachi and serves them in its own Hiroshima beer hall with house tacos and smoked snacks.
Tip: The brewery leans on local flavours with the Oyster City Stout and the Hiroshima Lemon Ale, both worth asking after by name.
KeMBY's is Hiroshima Micro Brewing Company's American-style pub in Otemachi, pouring the house range and guest taps beside burgers and smoked meats.
Tip: Doors open at 17:00 daily and the room sits a few blocks from Peace Memorial Park, so it works as the post-museum stop.
