Bottle from Tanakaya, bottled less than 2 months ago. Pours with a massive frothy, big/bubbled foam head. Does not come down that fast, need to wait for a while before I can actually add a bit more and then take a sip. Nose has some light caramel, then some clothes-soaking water thing and super light nutty roast. Tastes salty, weird caramel salt, some bitter notes in the background. Yes, this is quite weird, not sure if the miso should be used in a beer this way. Some peppery spice notes come out in the end, body is messy, water does not feel clean. Then I start eating my spicy chicken stew - and wow, salty umami is neutralised by the heat and this beer just feels like toasty-nutty brown ale, nice one at that. So drink this with food and it works, drink it as it is and... meh, its vile.

Sprinig Keyaki 2016. Murky clay color with a half a finger of head. Red miso nose with some roasted malt. Way too salty on the palate with a heavy mud-like feeling on the palate. Finish is salty with heavy grain. Maybe I should have paired it with rice? Why even make this beer? Seriously. One of the worst at Keyaki Spring. --- Beer merged from original tick of Miso Korny on 15 May 2016 at 15:32 - Score: 3
