MIHAMA BASE in Inagekaigan taps Unsung, West Coast Brewing and Isekadoya
WORLD BEER&DINING MIHAMA BASE in Mihama Ward, Chiba, added three new kegs on Saturday: Unsung, West Coast Brewing and Isekadoya Beer. The bar also keeps bottle and can takeaway available, while the tap list reaches nine beers in total.
Hop BroToday's headline is new taps at MIHAMA BASE. WORLD BEER&DINING MIHAMA BASE in Inagekaigan just opened three fresh kegs from Unsung, West Coast Brewing, and Isekadoya Beer.
MugiWhat! Three kegs at once sounds like a full-on festival! And nine beers on tap total? I'd get excited just reading the board!
Hop BroThe first one to watch is Unsung's Carina DDH Hazy DIPA. It's MIHAMA BASE's first time pouring this California beer, an 8.5% hazy double IPA built with loads of hops but without making the alcohol feel too heavy.
MugiHold on, DDH Hazy DIPA sounds like a cheat code. Why does that name feel like the final boss of the beer menu?
Hop BroYeah, the abbreviations stack up fast. Think of it as an extra-hoppy cloudy IPA with a soft mouthfeel and a huge aroma, so it's bold but still really easy to drink.
MugiNo way, 8.5% and still smooth is dangerous. That's the kind of beer that turns one glass into an accidental life choice!
Hop BroThen there's West Coast Brewing's Wandering Boi. It brings muscat and grape-like aroma, layers in melon, pine, and woody notes, then finishes with sharp bitterness and a dry snap as a West Coast double IPA.
MugiPine and woody? So this is drinking a forest now? If a little bird lands on my glass, I'm blaming you.
Hop BroNo birds, just that fresh piney lift and wood-like aroma. And Isekadoya Beer's Lush Hop IPA rounds things out with grapefruit and orange notes, bright citrus, moderate bitterness, and a dry finish from this revived American IPA.
MugiOkay, I need that lineup. With nine taps in the house plus bottle and can takeout, this place is basically a choose-your-own-beer-adventure.
Hop BroExactly, and with Guinness, Heartland, Hoegaarden White, Smog City, Firestone Walker, and Pure Project also on, the style range is huge. You can go stout to lager to hazy to West Coast without leaving your seat.
MugiI'm sold. I'd start with Lush Hop IPA for the citrus, float into Carina, then finish crisp with Wandering Boi. I want a pint right now and maybe a backup pint too!
