Tap at Server Land. Lemon, wheat. Nice bitterness. Alright. Refreshing. Not much else for me to say. Rerate at Keyaki. Interesting. Lemon, sour cream, sorachi ace? Pleasantly crisp and easy drinking, very herbal, bit funky.

Draft at Sapporo Craft Beer Forrest. Pale straw color with a nice white head. Big aromas of lemongrass, wheat and bread. Taste is lemongrass and some citrus as well as biscuit. Crisp, dry and refreshing. --- Beer merged from original tick of Lemongrass Hopper on 14 Jul 2015 at 09:40 - Score: 6

Tap at 1020. Clear, bright golden color. Low and fine head. Nose of lemon grass, a bit of lemon balm, biscuit malts. Clean lemony herb flavor, citrus hops, it seems, too. Nice herbal character that doesn’t go overboard at all. Refreshing and summery. Wrong season, but a good beer.

5%, 20 IBUs, on tap at Mokichi Craft beer in Fujisawa. A clear straw gold with a filmy head. The nose is lemon, they nailed that lemongrass scent. The taste is lemon but kind of too lemony - it gives me a lemon dish soap or cleaner vibe. Nice medium to full body, a little bit of a biscuity/graham quality in the finish. Pretty good but I’d like more malts to cut back that lemon taste a smidge so as to prevent people from thinking of Pledge. Good though.
