Monkish DDH Double IPA and WCB Amber IPA Tap at MIHAMA BASE
At Inage-Kaigan's WORLD BEER&DINING MIHAMA BASE on April 23, 2026, two new kegs were tapped. A Monkish DDH Double IPA and West Coast Brewing's Amber IPA arrived, bringing the draft lineup to nine beers, including the regulars.
Hop BroToday we're talking about two new kegs opening at MIHAMA BASE in Inage-Kaigan. When Monkish and West Coast Brewing show up at the same time, your feet almost start heading there on their own after work.
MugiWhoa, two at once! Nine drafts on tap sounds like one of those days where just choosing is fun. And Monkish sounds strong just from the name!
Hop BroFirst up is Monkish Los Angeles' DDH Double IPA, officially called Monkish of Anaheim. It uses Galaxy, Citra, Enigma, Cashmere, and Krush, and the ABV is 8.5%.
MugiDDH? What's that supposed to mean? Double dry hopping or something? It sounds like they've packed in as much hop as possible, which is a little scary but definitely intriguing!
Hop BroExactly. Roughly speaking, it's a brewing method that doubles down on hop aroma. The layers of aroma increase, so tropical and citrus notes really come forward.
MugiI see! So Monkish's one is all about enjoying the layered hops. Just the name alone makes it sound like it's bursting with aroma!
Hop BroThe other one is West Coast Brewing's Blazing Buds 2026. It's a tribute to Modern Times Beer's Blazing World, and as an Amber IPA, the malt depth takes center stage.
MugiSo Amber IPA is the world of caramel and toffee? And then it brings melon, grape, and orange too? I can't keep up with whether it's sweet or refreshing!
Hop BroThat's the fun part: malt character and fruitiness coexist, with grassy and resinous notes layered on top. At 7.0% ABV, it's the kind of beer you can savor gradually and deeply.
MugiAnd MIHAMA BASE supports takeout too, which is such a help! Drink inside, then take home the ones you liked most on the way out - that's the best.
Hop BroEven on a rainy Thursday, a station-close place where you can choose by mood is strong. Today I'd get hit with hops from Monkish, then settle in with Blazing Buds for a quiet, reflective drink at the end.
MugiI'm totally hungry and thirsty now! I want to compare them right away, so let's head straight to MIHAMA BASE after work!
