Tap at Komachi. Salmon or watermelon pink color with a low, fine head. Nose is berries, strawberry, raspberry, lemon, yogurt, cream. Nice lactic acid. Sweet and sour, vanilla stands out big in the aftertaste, nice strawberry, nicely tart. A bit too sweet for me, added lactose really is unnecessary, and the vanilla ruins it for me. Well done, though. I hope this milkshake craze ends soon so I can get a good fruit sour without lactose and vanilla.

330ml bottle, mail order from the brewery. Pours pink, hazy and pink with some lightly pink foam. Oh boy, here we go.. Nose is tart, light tartness, fruity and lacto. Not sweet, not bitter, not too acidic. Easygoing. Tastes actually quite balanced. Loads of lacto there - but strawberries are actually also there, mixed with sugar and milk. Memories from childhood surface, and I have a next sip. Light vanilla, light bitterness in the finish. Pretty good, nicely balanced and super easily drinkable. Much better than I thought at first.
