On tap at Popeye, pours a cloudy bright golden with a small white head. Nose is full of clove and banana, with some light bubblegum esters. Flavour is estery, with bubblegum, banana, and light clove. Estery finish, more or less in keeping with the style. Okay.

Keg at Popeye - Tokyo. Pours hazy yellow with a creamy topping. Moderate yeast in the nose, doughy wheat, lemon zest. Medium sweet flavour with more wheat bread, dough. Light bodied with massaging carbonation. Sweet finish, wheat flakes, biscuits. Not bad.

Tap at Waseda Oktoberfest. Pours light straw, bit of white foam. Aroma has some yeast, cloves and a sour banana. Drinks smooth, quit yeasty, light and full of flavours while not heavy. Well, while pretty watery. Sweet and some astringency in the finish. Dry and slightly bitter aftertaste. Ok, weizen but not too great.

Keyaki fall 2016. Bubblegum and banana nose. Sweet but with some light lemon, lime citrus notes in the background. Thin-bodied and sweet finish. Meh. --- Beer merged from original tick of Weizen on 18 Sep 2016 at 14:35 - Score: 6

Yamaguchi Weizen another bottle from Kyoto Isetan. A shorter review on this one as I am off to the airport! It pours a very light straw gold with a thick creamy eggshell white head. It has a nice spicy weizen aroma of cloves & wheat. The body is on the thin side. The flavor is so so, kind of weak with nice spice notes, light wheat. Overall it is OK but a little too weak and somewhat watery. That pale ale was the winner of the two.

Bottle via mail order from Yamaguchi, as Chuya Beer. Slightly tangy aroma, clove, citrus, warm malts, yeasty. Very cloudy orange-deep gold. Light, soapy, oily, strange bitterness, medicinal flavor. Bad.
