Tap at the Romantic Village. Light amber, creamy off-white head. Aroma is very doughy, bit sweet, something fruity and malty. Taste is interesting, bit of sweetness, something spicy, malty. Maybe falling between two stools. Alright again, but not so exciting (again).

Medium amber color. Incredible display of carbonation. Frothy white head. Very clean minernally nose. I drank this fresh at the brewery and I can’t say it had fantastic depth, but it was malt focused, clean, showed some orange and bread notes. Although 6.5% it was too light body. Easy drinking and focused on the masses. Not bad

Bottle from the Supermarket at Utsunomiya Station. Drank on the Shinkansen after an earthquake, while we waited for 2 1/2 hours to get going again. They make this beer to go with their Chinese dumplings, though I cannot see how that is. Tastes more like a brown ale or a dunkler bock to me than a marzen. Big malt aroma of caramel, nuts, chocolate. Swee,t rich malt flavor, chocolate and caramel. Sweet and tasty, bock-like, with some dark fruits. A bit too sweet, but not that bad overall. Nice enough malt character.
