Nice. Big tropical fruitiness, sticky and lovely. Good bitterness. Like House IPA at its best. Good stuff

They had a side by side tasting set at Real Ale Yell Gifu for 1100 yen for 2 x 150ml pours. The Oni Densetsu version is crisp clear and cleaner but lacking the juice and depth of the Y Market one. Side by side the difference is obvious as Y Market’s has the true cloudy honey NE color you’d expect from the style. A good IPA but the NE part has been stripped out of it.

Tap at Komachi. Bright, glowing orange-gold with a low head. Nose of pine, grapefruit, wheat, tropical fruit. Great hop flavor, dank, fruity, mango, orange, some pine. Bready malts. Not too sweet, with soft, light carbonation. Good.
