Tap at JBC. Starts off grainy but graduates towards light citrus. Some creamy sweetness at the end. Bitter too though and feels quite boozy. Grassy aroma, dry.

Bottle shared at a tasting at Max's place. Thanks mom for this bottle! Yellow-golden. Floral and citric hops, a bit zesty, grains, a bit of minerals, quite dry, bitter finish, medium-bodied. Pretty nice.

Tap at C&R. Almost nothing on the nose, maybe some light biscuity malts. Sweet on the palate with an overly bitter finish. Dry and yeasty. Why even make this? --- Beer merged from original tick of Kaigun-san no Bakushu Shimanowa Beer on 22 Apr 2016 at 20:56 - Score: 5. Original review text: Sweet on the palate with an overly bitter finish. I hate blondes.

On tap at Ibaraki Bakuon. Shimanowa Beer 5% made with oranges by Kure Beer down in Hiroshima, it pours a dense cloudy gold with a filmy cotton white head of foam. The aroma is orange and hops - pretty nice. A zesty bright carbonation on a light body compliments the aroma with a crisply bitter hoppiness with orange zest notes. Quite a fun summery beer.

Tap at BBS 2015. Lemon, orange, peach in the nose, clean pilsner malt. A bit tropical. Great fruity hop flavor, clean, crisp and crackery. Very good and easy drinking. [br]10/9/2017: Tap at Takumiya. Pretty cloudy orange with a thick head. Nose is mikan, citrus hops, crackery malt. Awesome malt flavor, crackers, bread, citrus, very light zest of mandarin oranges. Very nice, I don't need the zest, but it isn't overdone.
