%N a(n) = 24*(3*n + 1)!/(n!*((n + 2)!)^2).

%C According to A. Adolphson and S. Sperber (see Links), see page 14, second equation after Eq.(7.4): for any two integers K, L, the ratios (3*K+1)!*(3*L+1)!/(K!*L!*((K+L+1)!)^2) are proven to be integers. Here a(n) results from K = 1 and L = n, n >= 0.

%F G.f.: -(hypergeometric2F1([-4/3, -2/3], [1], 27*z) - 1)/(3*z^2) + 8/z.

%F a(n) = Integral_{x=0..27} x^n*W(x) dx, n >= 0, where

%F W(x) = (243*2^(2/3)*Gamma(5/6)*Gamma(2/3)*hypergeometric2F1([-4/3, -4/3], [1/3], x/27)) / (16*Pi^(5/2)*x^(1/3)) - (3*sqrt(3)*2^(1/3)*x^(1/3)* hypergeometric2F1([-2/3, -2/3], [5/3], x/27))/(2*sqrt(Pi)*Gamma(5/6)* Gamma(2/3)).

%F W(x) is a positive function in the interval [0, 27], is singular at x = 0 with the singularity x^(-1/3), and monotonically decreases to zero at x = 27, with W'(x) tending to zero at x = 27. This integral representation as the n-th power moment of the positive function W(x) in the interval [0, 27] is unique, as W(x) is the solution of the Hausdorff moment problem.
