Document doc = new Document.

if (bitsfromdb & 2) {
   doc.add("music", "y");
}

Beware that if there are a large number of bits, this is going to impact memory usage due to there being more fields.

Perhaps a better way would be to use a single "bits" field and store the words "sport", "music", ... in that field.
