Belching Beaver and West Coast Brewing Newly Tapped at MIHAMA BASE in Inage-kaigan
At WORLD BEER&DINING MIHAMA BASE (Mihama Base) in Inage-kaigan on April 1, 2026, two new kegs were tapped after the regular closing day ended with rain. A Belching Beaver IPA and a West Coast Brewing West Coast IPA are now on tap, offering a wide-ranging tap lineup to enjoy.
Hop BroMIHAMA BASE in Inage-kaigan has two new kegs tapped. Even though it was raining on April 1 after the regular closing day, the lineup instantly lifts the mood.
MugiWhoa! Beer news on a rainy day is the kind that makes you want to drink even more! New arrivals after the day off feels like a reward the moment you clock in!
Hop BroFirst up is Belching Beaver Phantom Bride IPA. It is a collaboration with Deftones, and the hop design using Amarillo, Citra, Simcoe, and Mosaic is pretty sharp.
MugiWait, there are so many hop names it sounds like a spell! What does hop design even mean? My head already has guitar sounds playing in it!
Hop BroBasically, it's the recipe for which hops are used to create the aroma and bitterness. Phantom Bride has a smooth medium body, and the bitterness and malt sweetness really mesh well, finishing dry at the end.
MugiOh, I get it! So it has plenty of presence without being too heavy. A finish that is hard to tire of makes me want to reach for the next glass!
Hop BroThe other keg is West Coast Brewing Westie Bois. It's a collaboration with Future Brewing, and what I like is the crisp West Coast IPA shape with a dank edge coming through up front.
MugiDank means something like a dense forest aroma, right? And there’s cucumber-like freshness plus grapefruit, which is a lot to take in!
Hop BroExactly, and tropical layers build on top of that, so it expands into passion fruit and pineapple-like notes too. There is bitterness, but it comes together in a smooth, clean way, which feels very West Coast Brewing.
MugiAnd you can get bottles and cans too, not just drinks inside the shop! Wouldn't it be great to take some home on a rainy day and compare them there?
Hop BroYeah, and the taps are packed with everything from IPAs to classics, so GUINNESS and Hoegaarden White are there too. Having options depending on your mood is a strong point.
MugiAll right, today is for taking our time and comparing beers in Inage-kaigan! From Phantom Bride to Westie Bois, it feels like even the rain sounds would taste good while drinking!
On Wednesday, April 1, Inage-kaigan started off rainy after the regular closing day, but two new kegs were tapped at WORLD BEER&DINING MIHAMA BASE (Mihama Base). The shop holds a general liquor retail license, so it supports not only drinks in the store, but also takeout in bottles and cans.
The first beer drawing attention is Belching Beaver Phantom Bride IPA. Brewed in collaboration with Deftones, this American IPA features a hop bill built around Amarillo, Citra, Simcoe, and Mosaic. It has a medium body with a mellow, smooth mouthfeel. The hop bitterness and malt sweetness fit together well, and it finishes dry, making it an easy beer to keep drinking.
The other keg is West Coast Brewing Westie Bois. This West Coast IPA, made in collaboration with Future Brewing, brings a dank aroma to the forefront, layered with refreshing cucumber-like notes, citrusy grapefruit character, and tropical nuances of passion fruit and pineapple. The flavor follows the aroma with a smooth, clean bitterness, and the overall balance is excellent.
That day's tap lineup also includes GUINNESS, KIRIN HEARTLAND, Hoegaarden White, Los Angels Ale Works Full Thrust Double IPA, STONE Hazy IPA, Deschutes Hop Krush Hazy IPA, and Sierra Nevada Springfest IPA, offering a broad range from classics to hop-forward IPAs. It is a lineup well suited to a day when you want to take your time and compare beers in Inage-kaigan.
