Bottle at the Romantic Village. Amber coloured, small off-white head. Aroma is fruity, slightly floral, sweet, bit of plastic but not too off-putting. Taste is good, sweet, bit of booze, solid malty sweetness. Maybe the best of the day but not much competition.

At a tasting thanks, small bubbly head, hazy orange color, spicey ginger aroma with hints of tropical fruits, spicey ginger flavor with some bread and a lemony sourness, light bitterness, light bodied. Infected, not good.

Bottle shared at a tasting at troubles’s place. Thanks mom for this bottle! Hazy deep golden with a white head. Sourish aroma, kinda lemony, with some pickled vegetables and fruity notes. Sweetish-sourish flavor with malt, a bit of graininess, a bit of fruitiness, caramel, a bitterish note, and an alcoholic note. Infected, but could be worse. --- Beer merged from original tick of Romantic Village Nikko Iroha Birthday Special Beer on 04 Nov 2015 at 05:16 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 4 | Flavor - 5 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 4.5. Original review text: Bottle shared at a tasting at troubles’s place. Thanks mom for this bottle! Slightly hazy deep golden-copper. Aroma of cardboard, malt, a bit of caramel, a faint toasty hint. Sweetish flavor with malt, some caramel, a bit of cardboard, and a bitterish finish with slightly stale hops. Medium-bodied. Feels like it used to be a decent beer, but it seems too old now.
