MIHAMA BASE in Inage-Kaigan taps WCB's Full Hop Alchemist r1 -2026- and Faction's Terpsman IPA
WORLD BEER&DINING MIHAMA BASE in Inage-Kaigan has tapped two new beers: West Coast Brewing's Hazy Double IPA Full Hop Alchemist r1 -2026- and Faction's Terpsman IPA. The tap list now includes nine beers, and bottles and cans are also available for takeaway.
Hop BroBig news from Inagekaigan: two fresh taps just landed at Mihama Base. They are pouring WCB's Full Hop Alchemist r1 -2026- and Faction's Terpsman IPA.
MugiWait, those names are intense! They are both IPAs, so what makes them different?
Hop BroThe WCB one is a hazy double IPA at 8.5% ABV. Expect bright tropical sweetness, berry and stone-fruit aromas, and a rich full-bodied mouthfeel.
MugiHuh? What does hazy mean? It sounds like the beer forgot its glasses!
Hop BroFair question. A cloudy-style IPA usually looks a little misty, keeps the bitterness softer, and leans juicy and smooth when you drink it.
MugiOkay, I am listening. And 2026 harvest hops sounds super fresh. Is that a big deal?
Hop BroIt is. They recreated the 2025 r1 recipe using freshly air-shipped 2026 freestyle hops, so the aroma should really pop. Total tropical fruit blast energy.
MugiThen what about Terpsman IPA? The phrase terpene aroma compounds makes it sound like beer from a science lab!
Hop BroThat is the fun part. It is a West Coast IPA with Centennial, Comet, and Mosaic, plus terpenes from Abstrax. In plain terms, terpenes are plant aroma compounds that make the hop character feel sharper and louder.
MugiSo it is basically a flavor outline pen for hops? Also, nine draft beers from Guinness to Isekadoya sounds like a trap for my self-control.
Hop BroAnd Mihama Base is takeout-friendly too. They have a retail license, so you can drink on site and still grab bottles or cans to go.
MugiThen I am sold. I want a flight right now: start juicy with Full Hop Alchemist, finish sharp with Terpsman IPA, and bring home a can for later.
