Tap at Nakameguro Taproom. Clear, full amber brown with a one-finger fluffy white head that lingers throughout. Light melon and papaya on the nose with some grass and bark undertones. Taste is bitter with earthy, nature-like bitterness...more sticks and bark and grass. Bitter finish that has a lingering dryness. --- Beer merged from original tick of Shonan IPA HBC 342 on 12 Dec 2015 at 18:38 - Score: 7
