Initial ginger. Soft pale ale, malty, quite nice.

Tasting set @ Furusato matsuri. Poured darker godlen or orange, somewhat hazy (or a bit muddy). Still looking more or less presentable. Nose is sweetish, some residue sugars and some fruity notes. Tastes relatively fresh, a bit too sweet as hops are not really balancing this out - but still relatively pleasant to drink. I guess this must be quite freshly brewed, different infections this brewery clearly struggles with have not yet had time to kick in.

Bottle. The second of 5 different beers in a 6 pack. Hope it is better than the first. Similar kind of infection in the nose-mineral, dusty, dirty, with some citrus. Some wild bacteria is eating away at this. Hazy orange-amber with a tall, airy, infected-looking head. Flavor is dry, detergent, minerals, light malt and citrus hops. Not as repugnant as the 5 Daughters but still infected and far from good. Not sure if it's the bottling system, as TimE found the beers good enough at the brewery.

frothy white head. Very hazy medium amber color. Very dry modestly hoppy nose that seems a bit over attenuated. Good mouth feel. Lots of citrus and apple notes. Good malty backbone. Hops don’t shine as much as I would like, but decent
