MIHAMA BASE in Inagekaigan taps FARMENTRY Powder Juice and WCB Harmonic Dreams
WORLD BEER&DINING MIHAMA BASE in Inagekaigan added two new drafts: FARMENTRY's Powder Juice, a Northern IPA brewed with MAHOWBREW, and West Coast Brewing's Harmonic Dreams, a West Coast Double IPA now in its 10th release. The bar is pouring nine beers in total and also offers bottle and can takeout.
Hop BroToday's topic is two fresh taps at MIHAMA BASE. Inagekaigan just got FARMENTRY's 'Powder Juice' and WCB's 'Harmonic Dreams' on at the same time.
MugiWait, two new kegs at once!? Those names already sound intense. Which one are we supposed to start with?
Hop BroFirst up is FARMENTRY's Powder Juice. It's the second collab with Okinawa's MAHOWBREW, and the style is a Northern IPA.
MugiOooh, but Northern IPA? What is that? A beer that tastes better if you face north?
Hop BroNot a compass beer. The key is juicy aroma, dry finish. You get citrus, apricot, and peach vibes, but the bitterness stays soft, so it goes down dangerously easily.
MugiThat sounds risky in the best way. So what about WCB's Harmonic Dreams?
Hop BroThat one is a West Coast Double IPA, the 10th release in the series, and it clocks in at 8.0% ABV. Grapefruit and orange pop first, then you get dank, woody, grassy layers.
MugiHold on, dank and grassy? Why does that sound like a forest started a tasting panel? What does that actually mean?
Hop BroBasically, it's deep hop aroma with herbal and tree-like notes, then a crisp finish instead of syrupy sweetness. And MIHAMA BASE has nine draft options total, plus bottles and cans to go.
MugiThat's perfect. I want to try both there and then take home some cans. Start smooth with Powder Juice, then get dreamy with Harmonic Dreams.
Hop BroThat's the move. They're open from 5:00 PM to 1:00 AM, so tonight's two-beer plan is officially on: easygoing first, big finish after.
