On tap at Ibaraki Bakuon. A cloudy honey gold with an aroma that evokes bitter canteen coffee. The taste is like a milk coffee with sugar, good enough but zero hops. It nails making a gold coffee beer and that’s fun but why bother to include IPA in the name when it has zero hop character?

Tap at Bakuon 16. Huge coffee nose. Just coffee, really. I might get a touch of citrus hops, but not sure. Orange color with lace. Flavor also big coffee, but a bit more citrus coming though and a touch of malt. Tastes nice enough, as the coffee is not sour or astringent, but it really overwhelms everything else. I would use about 1/3 as much coffee.
