Tap at Hopman. Very nice. Nice Belgian yeastiness, biscuity but some fruitiness too. Light spice. Not really IPA like, but I like it. Something almost a little sweet at the end

Tap at Taiyo Sakaba. Nice classic daisen g yeast forward nose. Some light lemon and custard notes along with yeasty spice. Sweet on the palate but very Belgian, similar to Chimay white somehow. Finish is sweet with a touch of peppery yeast spice. More of a Belgian ale than an IPA I guess, but well done regardless of the name.

Completely different color than the old one, obviously a new recipe. Tap at Takumiya. Bright, deep gold, cloudy, lace. Bisctuiy malt flavor, spicy, citrus, yeasty. Sweet and estery flavor, biscuity malt. Rather thick, with not a lot of hops, as usual for Daisen.

Draught at Q-Brick. Deep orange with no head. Yeasty, estery nose with citrus, stewed peaches, spice. Sweet flavor with big peach, spice. Fruity, sweet, and spicy, with a decent bitter, hoppy finish. A nicely hopped Belgian amber, but nothing at all like an IPA.
