Tap at CBM Awajicho. Pale blond cloudy, small whittle fluffy head. Aroma is classic weizen, banana, clove, slight funkiness. Taste is good, nice and creamy, banana, bit of citrus, bit of bubblegum. Quite spritzy. Pretty nice.

Tap at Beerfes Kamikochi 2015. Pours nice hazy golden, persistent and foamy head. Aroma is thick, I am getting some koshihikari rice that feels actually alright (usually I don’t like that). No idea if they used it or not. Anyhow, also one of the strongest banana aromas that I have ever had in a weizen. Taste is also full on, thick with banana, candy, cloves and some herbal character. Good stuff!

Hidetakayama Weizen 5% a souvenir from Mickey Blue Eyes. It ours a lovely cloudy straw gold with a fizzy white head that leaves a slapdash soapy lacing. A wheaty chewy light malt nose, ok clove spiciness but with an unfortunate buttery off-flavor lurking in the background. The taste is crackery wheat light malts, buttery popcorn diacetyl but mild & some light spices. Overall ok but could be better.

On tap at Popeye, August 2013. Hazy golden/yellow with a medium white head. Aroma and taste of banana, wheat, some coriander and yeast. Fairly light body with not that much carbonation. An ok beer.

Bottle. Light clove aroma cloudy yellow, lowish head. Flavorwise it hits a Hefeweizen from Oberbayern perfectly: Sweet wheat, vanilla, clove and plenty of bananas. Kind of fitting I should try this in the Japanese alps. If I have to critisize, then the body could be a bit fuller and chewier, but that doesnt detract from the enjoyment,

Draught at Popeye, Tokyo. Cloudy golden, minimal head. Fresh aroma ofripe banana. Mid-sweet and fairlylight bodied with very soft mouthfeel. Mild malt but intense esters. Excellent weizen.

On tap at Popeye’s. Rich, thick wheat malt flavor. On the sweet side, but has a good bitter finish. Not sour at all. Crisp, but rich, with medium plus carbonation. Very nice, with lots of spice and banana. A top Japanese wheat beer.

This light brown brew has a light brown thin head with apples, spice and wheat in the nose. The body has some good apple pie character with a good amount of sweet and sour attributes, while the finish is once again sour. A well balance beer that is very interesting.
