dull dirty brown amber color that isn’t that appealing. Slightly sweet, slightly sour nose with fresh wort and muesli. Rye spiciness with lactose and vanilla and cereal notes. Low carbonation smooth but this is all over the place. Too many things going on. Medium full bodied. No balanced. I really didn’t like this

Lovely stuff. Great vanilla, bit fruity. Nice bitterness too. Hoppy. Very interesting!

Tap at Komachi. Requisite juuicy nose, pineapple, orange, mango, wheat, spices. Dry flavor, lots of tropical fruit, grapefruit zest and even pith, papaya, 7-Up. Hay golden orange. A bit of strange astringency takes it down.
