MIHAMA BASE in Inagekaigan taps Oni Densetsu Pale Ale and Union Jack
On a cloudy early-summer Thursday in Inagekaigan, WORLD BEER&DINING MIHAMA BASE added two new beers on tap: Oni Densetsu Kin-oni Pale Ale Luminosa Single Ver. and Firestone Walker Union Jack. The lineup blends Japanese craft, imports, and everyday favorites.
Hop BroMIHAMA BASE in Inagekaigan just tapped two fresh kegs today. Oni Densetsu's Kin-Oni Pale Ale Luminosa Single Ver. and Firestone Walker's Union Jack went on at the same time.
MugiWhat! A double headliner? A first-pint beer and a big punchy one together? I'd be mentally toasting before I even order.
Hop BroFirst up, the key with Kin-Oni is Luminosa Single Ver. It's a pale ale at ABV 5.5% and IBU 40, with lemony and tropical fruit character up front plus just enough bitterness to make it great as your first glass.
MugiHold on, Single Ver. sounds like a limited-edition game release. What is that? And Luminosa sounds like a special move.
Hop BroThat part matters. Single-hop setup means the beer is built around one featured hop. So Luminosa's citrusy, tropical character comes through clearly instead of getting lost.
MugiOhhh, so perfect first pour means light and easy, but still bright and fruity. That could blow the rainy-season gloom right out of my brain!
Hop BroThen Union Jack is classic West Coast IPA territory. It's ABV 7.0%, IBU 60, and packed with grapefruit, pineapple, tangerine, apricot, and citrus hop aroma.
MugiThat aroma list is full produce aisle levels of fruit! And with IBU 60, how is it still supposed to drink smooth? That's suspiciously impressive!
Hop BroBecause the pale malt backbone holds it together. It doesn't just hit bitter and stop; the finish has a neat acidity and clean carbonation, so it stays sharp without getting tiring.
MugiOkay, so smooth by design means it isn't just bitter for the sake of it! That's annoyingly cool in the best possible way.
Hop BroAnd the tap list has serious range too. Guinness, KIRIN HEARTLAND, Hoegaarden White, plus NEKOBEER, West Coast Brewing, and Pure Project. Honestly, I'm already itching to start with Union Jack and keep going.
MugiNo saving me now, I want a pint! I'll start with Kin-Oni, you grab Union Jack, and then we can immediately begin the "let me try yours" battle.
On a damp, cloud-covered Thursday in Inagekaigan, WORLD BEER&DINING MIHAMA BASE added two fresh taps to its lineup. The shop is a craft-beer-focused bar in the Mihama area, and it also holds a retail license for takeout sales of bottled and canned beer.
The first highlight is Oni Densetsu Kin-oni Pale Ale Luminosa Single Ver. from Hokkaido’s Oni Densetsu. It comes in at 5.5% ABV and 40 IBU, with a profile centered on lemony notes, tropical fruit, and a clean, moderate bitterness. According to the original post, it is especially fitting as a first pint, and it should work well on warmer days as well.
The second new tap is Firestone Walker Union Jack, a West Coast IPA at 7.0% ABV and 60 IBU. The beer is described as hop-forward yet balanced, with grapefruit, pineapple, tangerine, apricot, and citrus layered over pale malt sweetness. A gentle acidic finish and crisp carbonation keep it dry, bright, and easy to keep drinking.
Beyond the two featured taps, the day’s lineup also included Guinness, KIRIN HEARTLAND, Hoegaarden White, NEKOBEER Gigimosa, West Coast Brewing Analog Glow, Smog City Back to Sea, and Pure Project Diamond Dust. That mix of stout, pilsner, white ale, pale ale, hazy IPA, and West Coast IPA gives the bar a broad range of styles in one stop.
MIHAMA BASE stays open until 1:00 a.m. and accepts reservations, making it a practical stop for a post-work pint or a longer tasting session. With these two new additions, the tap list in Inagekaigan looks even more worth checking out.
