Tap at CBM Jinbocho. Light golden colour with off white creamy head. Aroma is malty slightly fruity, bit tropical, but musty. Taste is more interesting, touch of fruit, wheaty maltiness, little bit of weirdness. Quite full bodied with little bit of sweetness. Maybe just a hint of something sake-like towards the end. Nice.

Hazy golden color, fairly yeasty with some tropical fruit notes. Clean simple, with only modest sake character.

Draught at CBB. Bright shiny gold. Nice hoppy nose, light clean malts, citrus fruits. Malty but clean flavor, good hop presence, nice bitterness and balance. I couldn’t find much influence from the sakekasu. Maybe a bit of pepper and umami compared to the regular version. Nice enough.
