330ml bottle at my daughters in Laguna Hills on 23rd January 2022. Misty mahogany brown body, light beige head. Malty front with a caramel and toffee like aroma, the taste also has a malty molasses feel to it. Cherry hints in there too.

Bottle at home. Amber coloured with cream coloured fluffy head. Aroma is golden ale like, some fruitiness, lightly hoppy, slightly perfumey, malty. Taste is nice. Nothing shocking, light fruitiness, berries, light caramel maltiness, little bit of citrus in there. Pretty easy to drink.

Curry-ya, NYC bottle: pours bronze with an off white head. Aroma is caramel, earthy. Taste is kind of bland. Not too seeet or very bitter. Mild aftertaste. Not bad.

From tap at Setagaya Summer Festival 2015. Poured into a paper cup - with a massive head that just refuses to settle down. Finally I get through the foam and see some hazy amber colour. Aroma is mostly soap water, also some malts but not much else. Taste is bitterish, bit of fruits, somewhat messy but still drinkable. I guess this is your average Japanese ji-biiru nothing more, nothing less.

Japanese Brewery 148. Bottle from World Beer Market as Kawaba Red Ale served in a pint glass. It pours a nice amber brown with a light beige head. My first whiff gave me fruity notes while a deeper inhalation brought forth caramel and figs. Med-thin bodied with a tongue scraping mouthfeel. The taste is caramel & candied figs but it finishes on a harsh medicinal bitterness. Shame as the nose was quite promising.

Bottle. Pours slightly hazy dark amber with small foamy off-white head, faint caramel aroma, high carbonation, thin body, watery caramel taste, abrupt finish. Feels quite weak.
