Tap at Bungalow. Black with a low head. Big umami in this one, chocolate, citrus, pine, light roast, katsubushi. Lots more katsu in the flavor, citrus and pine, light caramel, chocolate, soy sauce and lots of umami--almost too much. A bit too meaty.

dark brown color. Floral nose with lots of coffee, roasted malt and an underlying headiness. Very interesting. Medium full body, tons of roasted malt, very dry. Modestly bitter. Good cappuccino, dark fruit character. Not overly aggressive bitter much more focused on malt character. Interesting mole finish. Good but I would prefer more hop character

Tap @ iBREW Shimbashi. Pours darker brown, some beige or pretty much white foam on the top. Light malty roast in the nose, something tart too. Tastes roasty, some light tart roasted malt, not dry but more like BlackBerry character. Malty and swedish, covered with some bitterness and a touch of roast. Hoppy Swartz, maybe that's what they went for with this one? Not completely convinced.
