Bottle from Foodshow. A little old at this point I guess. Light honeydew melon and sweety fruit nose with some sugar and maybe sudachi? Body is very soda-like with a slight syrupiness. Cloying and sweet, but the fruit is there. Alcopop but like some of the johana’s not entirely awful. To be clear though, not a beer, fruit beer, but more of a soda fruit beer.

From tap at Beerfes Tokyo. Pours hazy pale, thin layer of foam. Aroma is somewhat fresh but not in the usual way. Green fruits, a berry with some resins. Tastes sweet. At first it’s just sweet, then hops disappear and what’s left is skunky sweetness. Some fruits add on later which makes it more tolerable. Well, quite exciting though, not really sure if I’d want to have it again.

On tap at the Kyoto Beer Fest 2014. Brewmaster was bafflingly popular at the event. A nice honey gold pour with a beige head that lingers and appetizing cabos fruit spritzy aroma. Medium bodied the taste is a bit cloying or medicinal fruitiness. Think some kind of citrusy sweet soda. Not really beer like & kind of cloying...

Bottle at the brewery. Very sweet honey and citrus balance. Very extreme flavors of the additives cover up what seems to be very mediocre beer. Bitter-sour finish is pretty nice. Sweet, fruity, rather pleasant drink, but not very beer-like.

Cloudy orange color. Tart. Very, very citrusy, but the honey strangely balances things out. Sweet honey in orange sode. Too sweet, but interesting and at least now I feel healthier.
