330ml can from School of Animals, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a murky golden orange colour with a lasting frothy white head and some debris from the can. The flavour is dry yeasty herbal, with a light banana, light spicy clove, bready, yeast, perfume, floral palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Rather plain and the flavours that did come through were not entirely pleasant.

On tap at Hobgloblin Roppongi. A bit hazy dark golden/amber with a small white head. Light with some spices, wheat, hints of citrus and bread. A boring one to be honest.

I wanted their Prison Stout, but this was a lot cheaper. Probably better, too, I'm assuming. Downed it walking thru Osaka Station.

Fresh can from my local Natural Lawson. Slightly cloudy golden, white foam. Aroma has a hint of coriander, some yeast spices and sweet banana. Taste brings out more of that coriander, some light lemon peel citrus and a touch of herbal bitterness. Feels quite smooth and actually even nicely balanced. Dry herbal finish. Not exciting in any way but actually nice light drinkable summer brew.

Crisp golden coloured body with a small white head, just two centimetres tall. Aroma of crisp wheat, some light grasses, a hint of yeast and some very light coriander seed freshness. Light-bodied; Stronger coriander seed flavours at first with more of a hay and curacao sweetness and only a touch of the wheat and grasses behind, with more cardboard and funky flavours than anything else. Aftertaste shows some subdued grasses, a touch of coriander seed freshness and some more robust yeastie flavours than noticeable before. Overall, a relatively good, light-drinking beer that shows some decent witbier qualities without showing too much off-flavours or pungency. I sampled this 35 cL can purchased from CityβSuper in One IFC, Central, Hong Kong on 29-July-2017 for HK$22,00 sampled on the streets of a very hot Hong Kong on 30-July-2017.

Can. Creamy wheat nose, orange, coriander. Muddy orange-brown color with a high, fluffy head. Sweet, creamy flavor, lots of coriander and some orange. Sweet and silky. Not horrible.
