Tap at JBC. Aroma, is boozy bit of fruit, grassy. Taste is good, bit of hoppiness, sharp. Biscuity in the background. Nice if a little vague. I was leathered at this stage.

Backlog from 2014. Draft at GJBF. Fruit forward nose with some light grass and caramel malt. Some light piney bitterness on the palate with more sweetness. Some orange zest. Sweetish finish with a hint of bitterness. Not that great.

Hell würziger Antrunk mit blumigen Hopfennoten. Wenig bitter und ebenfalls nur leicht herb, hopfig bleibend, rund und süffig. Gut! 9/10/10/10/7/11

7% brewed at Gotemba Kogen, bottle. Bought at a fancy looking new supermarket Yaoichi near Sanjo. Served in a plastic cup & drunk at Shinpuhkan. A fruity light pine hop aroma with a touch of grainy malts. Very fruity, kind of grape like nose. Lots of carbonation but a relatively soft mouthfeel & a palate cleansing finish. The taste isn’t as fruity as the nose, mostly bitter pine, a dash of fruit and then some earthiness. Average but alright.

Draft to a plastic cup @ Nippon Craft Beer Festival 2014. Nice white top, looks hazy copper, quite light. Aroma has some nice flowery hops, fruits and melon. Like a dessert. Taste is nicely hoppy - but soon a bit disturbing grass flavour emerges. Otherwise it has a strong malt base, balancing bitterness nicely. Bitterness itself feels maybe a bit stale but not too bad. Beer itself is good, a bit sweet. Aftertaste is fruity, sweet and.. dry.

Bottled. Not sure if this is the same as Toshi’s IPA or meant to be different. Tropical fruit nose, mango, durian. Sweet malt but no caramel, biscuits, peach, orange, mango, tropical fruits. Sofy, silky body. Slight tropical stink. Interesting.
