Tap at Popeye. Golden amber colour, not much head. Aroma is lightly fruity, berries, solid sweet maltiness. Taste is grainy, some citrus hops, biscuity malt, quite fruity, quite dry. Solid if unexciting.

Draught at Popeye, Tokyo. Lightly hazy deep golden, small head. Aroma of tangerine and winegum. Fairly sweet with rounded mouthfeel. Light to medium bodied with caramelly malt and a bit of peach. Rather low bitterness.

Clear copper with a wimpy head. Light malts and then nothing in the aroma. Flavor is sadly the same as the aroma. Not bad, just boring as it gets. I actually forgot I drank this until I went through my notes- and I only had three pints that night.

On tap at Popeye. Light, very hoppy aroma. Light copper color. Very light malt flavor, hops predominate. Fragrant, fruity, bitter hops. Clean and crisp, but not enough malt for me. Great hops though.

Apparently Preston is a brewpub in a mall in Tochigi prefecture Japan. Very small outfit with a funny name. The beer itself was a golden amber color and had a soft hoppy nose of apples and oranges. Soft hoppy body of orange and apples and just a touch of lime. Mildly bitter hoppy finish. Pleasent.
