Keyaki. Light caramel, little hoppiness but more sweet. Something a little fruity. Bit boring in my opinion.

On tap at the brewpub. Clear amber with a dense, off-white head. Malty and caramelly aroma with some slightly spicy and hoppy notes. Medium sweet with low flavour intensity, but a certain bitterness. Fairly boring, but drinkable enough.

Tap at Keyaki, Spring 2015. Nose of caramel, toffee. Sweet toffee flavor, sryupy, sugary, rough, poorly-made stuff. --- Beer merged from original tick of Brewing Bay Amber on 21 Dec 2022 at 04:18 - Score: Appearance - 10 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7. Original review text: Confusing that someone retired the old brewery and added the new one with a different name. This is a polotmavy lager, not the old amber ale that went by the same name. Tap at the pub. Pretty, deep amber with a tall head. Toasty, light caramel, lightly tannic nose. Tannins in the flavor too, very toasty, lightly nutty, caramel, grassy hops. Would prefer a bit more residual sweetness personally, but this is well done.
