Three Kegs Tapped at MIHAMA BASE in Inage Kaigan: LA Ale Works, STONE, Sierra Nevada
At WORLD BEER&DINING MIHAMA BASE (Mihama Base), three new kegs were tapped on March 29 in Inage Kaigan. An IPA-focused lineup from Los Angels Ale Works, STONE, and Sierra Nevada was added to match a sunny Sunday.
Hop BroToday we're talking about the simultaneous tapping of three kegs at MIHAMA BASE in Inage Kaigan. Los Angels Ale Works, STONE, and Sierra Nevada all showed up with IPA-style beers, making it the perfect addition for a beer-worthy Sunday.
MugiWait, three kegs at once!? If that many options appear all at the same time, my brain would freeze trying to decide where to start!
Hop BroThe first highlight is Full Thrust Double IPA. It's a beer from Los Angels Ale Works, and as a double IPA it has a strong, satisfying body, but what's interesting is the refreshing dank character from Mosaic hops.
MugiMosaic hops and that dank character? What even is refreshing dankness!? Is it a nice smell, or a damp forest? This is getting overloaded with information!
Hop BroSimply put, it has a green, piney aroma and resinous notes, but with a nuance that still feels crisp rather than heavy. Because that sits on top of the boldness of a double IPA, you get both drinkability and aroma.
MugiOhhh! So STONE's Hazy IPA is the cloudy one, just like the name says? It already looks delicious, which feels unfair!
Hop BroExactly, but the point in this article is that it's kept from getting too murky and stays easy to drink. Even though it's hazy, it's not too heavy, and the soft mouthfeel lets it go down smoothly, so it's easy for IPA beginners to get into.
MugiThat's amazing! So Sierra Nevada's Springfest IPA is the spring representative, right? I want to take it straight to a cherry blossom picnic!
Hop BroThat's right. It's an IPA with a vivid brightness that feels like celebrating the arrival of spring. MIHAMA BASE did a great job with these three by lining up boldness, drinkability, and seasonality so neatly.
MugiAnd they even have GUINNESS, KIRIN HEARTLAND, and Hoegaarden White too. Isn't that an insanely wide tap selection!? If you come with friends today, everyone could end up happy!
Hop BroExactly. If you're having a drink in Inage Kaigan, this is a very reliable place. The 5:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. hours after work are a big plus too, so this is definitely the kind of place that makes you want to go check out what's on draft tonight.
MugiWhoa, now I really want to go! I'll start with the Springfest IPA, and hop-bro will go for the double IPA, right? Then let's get ready to toast!
