Nice. Sweet. Aroma bit chemically. Taste is good though. Wheaty, creamy.

Fujizakura 20th Anniversary Spring Ale Tap at Bungalow awhile ago. This 6.5% beer looks like a hazy IPA but is listed as an India Pale Weizen (wait what is that?). Cloudy honey gold, eggshell white head and an eggy wheat aroma. The beer has a light body is fairly carbonic but crisp and clean. The taste is eggy wheat, spice and citrus. A good beer for a sunny day.

Tap at the Shinshu Craft Beer Matsuri, 2018. Pretty hazy gold with a thick head. Citrus hop nose, weizen yeast, cloves, esters. Light and citrusy, wheat comes though. Rather bitter. Not so fascinating but decent. Had this again on tap at Kyoto Ji-Biiru Matsuri 2018. Much richer hop flavor and nose and less bitterness, raised to 3.7 from 3.5.
