Tap at Takanoya. Opaque orange, this single hop beer has a strange aroma with pluot/waxy plum and floral notes, it's almost sour seeming, one of the weirdest hop bouquets I've encountered. The taste is bitter tree bark and resinous. This is an odd one and not for me.

Tap at Takanoya. Not sure if this is fresh hop or not. Big resin and grass in the nose, pine, some peaches, wax. Cloudy orange with lace. Rough and astringent, harsh weedy and resin. These hops are horrible. Hard to drink.
