On tap at Beer Rize in Okinawa. Pours clear golden with a small off-white head, good lacing. Tropical, citrus, bready, herbal and pine. Very good. Better than many IPAs in America.

Golden amber color. Pineapples and apricots in the nose. Fairly yeasty. Super clean hoppy with biscuity backbone and tons of pine and citrus notes. Super fresh, super well put together. This is fantastic. I think the condition has a lot to do with it.

Clear amber with little white head. Aroma is resin, honey, peach. Taste is resin bitterness, fruity sweetness and some sourness that is mostly citrussy. A little smoke as well. Full body, quite oily mouthfeel. Long bitter finish. Nice.

Tap at CBM Kichijoji. Lightly hazy copper with a fluffy off-white head. Light grapefruit aroma with some orange zest and pine. Starts off fairly well-balanced then has a spiky bitter finish at the end. Not bad though.
