West Coast Brewing’s 7th Anniversary Beers Arrive at BEER OLYN
Tokyo beer pub BEER OLYN highlighted two West Coast Brewing 7th Anniversary beers on Instagram: the hazy triple IPA Haze Alliance and the West Coast IPA Firelight. The post also shared the venue’s current tap lineup in Kagurazaka.
Hop BroSomething fun just landed in Kagurazaka: BEER OLYN is pouring two 7th anniversary beers from West Coast Brewing.
MugiWait, 7th anniversary beers already sound like a party. What are they pouring?
Hop BroFirst up is the Hazy TIPA Haze Alliance. It’s a 2× Mash TDH Hazy Triple IPA at 9.0% ABV, built around Riwaka and other NZ hops with huge mango and papaya vibes.
MugiHold on, 2× Mash TDH sounds like a wizard spell. Do I need extra mana before ordering it?
Hop BroYeah, that’s a lot of shorthand. Think of it as a massive hop load that stacks aroma in layers, making it dense, juicy, and super hazy.
MugiOhhh, I get it now. Mango and melon bursting out of the glass sounds like a tropical vacation.
Hop BroThe other one is Firelight, a DDH West Coast IPA at 6.0% ABV. It brings citrus, tropical fruit, grassy, piney, floral, and herbal notes, but still drinks nice and light.
MugiThat is a lot happening. What does piney mean here? Are they dropping a whole tree into the keg?
Hop BroNo trees involved. It means a pine-like aroma, and Firelight really shows that sharp, clear hop profile West Coast Brewing is known for.
MugiOkay, that sounds dangerously good. And BEER OLYN’s current tap list is stacked too, right?
Hop BroExactly. They’ve also got URBaN Boyz 〜60BPM〜, BARRICADE, LONGJING SAISON, Brain Glow, and RED on, so it’s basically a tasting paradise. The pub’s on the 3rd floor of DEAR Kagurazaka, and Fridays run 5 to 10 p.m.
MugiThat settles it, I want to head there after work and start with the anniversary pair. Right now I can only think about a beer in Kagurazaka!
BEER OLYN, the beer pub in Kagurazaka, Tokyo, posted two West Coast Brewing 7th Anniversary beers on Instagram. The first is Haze Alliance, a 2× Mash TDH Hazy Triple IPA at 9.0% ABV. Built around Riwaka and other New Zealand hops, it is described as a rich beer with tropical aromas reminiscent of mango and papaya, plus citrus, melon, and stone-fruit layers.
The second beer is Firelight, a DDH West Coast IPA at 6.0% ABV. Its profile leans into bright citrus and tropical notes, with grassy, piney, floral, and herbal nuances adding complexity. It is presented as a lighter, highly aromatic West Coast IPA that still carries the punch expected from a commemorative release.
BEER OLYN is located on the 3rd floor of DEAR Kagurazaka in Shinjuku, Tokyo. The post also listed the current tap lineup: BEER AGAIN / URBaN Boyz 〜60BPM〜, RIKRI / BARRICADE, FARMENTRY / LONGJING SAISON, RUSE Brewing / Brain Glow, and FARM&CIDERY KANESHIGE / RED. The selection spans a Chillwave Pale Ale, a DDH Hazy IPA, a Tea Spice Saison, a Hazy IPA, and a cider with sour cherry, making the bar a strong stop for drinkers who want range and contrast in one visit.
The post notes Friday hours from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m., making it an easy after-work stop or a place to settle in for a longer tasting session. For drinkers tracking West Coast Brewing’s anniversary releases alongside a varied guest-beer board, this is a lineup worth noting.
