Grassy hop aroma with a touch of lemon. Taste is crackery, lemonade, high on bitterness. Leaves a bit of a weird taste in the mouth, caramel too. Got that session IPA thinness. The 5 star ratings on Untappd are unsurprisingly ridiculous. Last third of the bottle was a bit gross. Loads of bitterness without taste.

Draught @ Tokyo Edo Week at Ueno Park. Pours orange with a small head. Aroma of fruits, pine, grass and herbal notes. Taste is crisp, hoppy and grassy with some pine, citrus and resin. Finish is crisp, herbal hoppy and grassy with some pine and resin. Pretty nicely hopped.

Tap at Osaka Beer Fes 2017. Deep hazy golden color. Nose is tropical fruit, quite nice, creamy, nicely malty flavor, a bit light overall. Lovely tropical fruit flavor from the hops. Good stuff. I think this is still made OEM. 7/4/7/4/15

Tap at the Gifu Fest where I was hoping to try Tapecut IIPA but found this instead. A collaboration with Transporter on tap at the Gifu Fest, apparently dry-hopped with Mosaic. A clear amber-orange in color with a big malty sweet and dank resinous piney hop taste, I didn’t get much of anything mosaic like about it. I rated it higher when I didn’t know it was supposed to have mosaic - they probably added a minute amount for marketing purposes... ...still a good beer though.
