330ml bottle from Family Mart in Nikko. Pours dirty orange, bit cloudy and honestly not that good-looking. Nose however strikes fruits lots of fresh fruitiness, sticky tropical overripe fruits. Taste has more of that fruity character, hoppy with medium and sharp bitterness. Floral. Quite good dry-hopping, decent brew, just looking a bit off.

Medium light amber color. Beautiful (dry hopped?!) nose of apricot, apples and pears. However beautiful the nose is the mouth didn’t deliver. Low bitterness, marmalade, over ripe peaches. The beer was a bit all over the place. It could be I didn’t groove on the hops. Very light and easy to drink though. Over ripe apricots linger in the finish
