Can from Shinshuu Osake Mura. Pours a fairly clear brown with a finger of foam that lingers. Toasted nuts, caramel and faint cocoa powder on the nose. Taste is pretty much the same but with a tea-like body. Very light and easy drinking. Would like a tad more hoppy bite, but still enjoyable. --- Beer merged from original tick of Karuizawa Kogen Seasonal 2016 Fall: Alt (軽井沢高原ビール 2016年 秋限定) on 18 Oct 2016 at 22:15 - Score: 6. Original review text: Nothing wrong with this alt. Lots of chocolate but maybe missing a bit of hop character. Lovely tea-like body. Easy drinking.
