Asahi Dry Premium Houjou World Hop Seletion Motueka 6% Deep gold with a foamy fast dissipating head. Grainy malts and lightly fruity hops. The beer has a medium bodied and semi-dry finish. The taste is grainy with that self-same herbal fruity hop finish and a grainy honey malt character. I also get some tutti frutti type notes. Not terrible but as usual the flavor/aroma peeks at alright while the body is too gassy. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Can. Ok nose, Motueka is there, but not strong. Better than usual though. Deep gold color, clear, with a high, airy head. Decent enough hop flavor, sweet and fruity, a bit pissy, but a rather lame malt / grain character, as in all these beers, with all the crappy adjuncts in them. A bit heavy and gets tiring. Not terrible, but this is a waste of these rare (in Japan) hops.
