Twilight Knight

Tap @ Y Market Brewery Kitchen, Nagoya. Pours creamy copper, decent thick foam top covering the beer. Malty nose, caramel, light sweetness and hint of roast bitterness. Tastes full bodied, nutty caramel and a bit of roast, roast caramel malt giving body and leaving a nice grainy linger. Quite dry for the style, drinks quite nicely.

Tap at Craft Heads. Nutty aroma with some caramel and grass on the nose. Medium body with softish carbonation. Lots of malt character on the palate with a hint of mineral on the finish. I’m not a fan of alts but this wasn’t that bad. Could be a little old I’m assuming as well. --- Beer merged from original tick of Twilight Knight on 07 May 2016 at 17:05 - Score: 7.

On tap at Bungalow. An opaque Amber brown with a thin creamy off-white head. The nose is herbal almost medicinal with pine accents. Prickly carbonation on a thin body, a little too light perhaps? The taste is herbal hops, a bit of sweet fruitiness and an off-putting cocoa that doesn’t seem to belong with the other flavors. I guess I would classify this as an American Brown Ale? Once it warmed up the flavors started to come together with fruity herbal hops & a more complex maltiness. Alright.

Tap at Komachi. Very cloudy orange-brown color with a fine, thick head. Nose of caramel, grass, minerals, nice malt but dryish. Rich, bready malt flavor, some caramel, not too sweet, with good bitterness. Rather authentic alt, on the full side. Good.
