6th August 2008. On tap at GBBF. Sweetish IPA - not much bitterness. Slightly dissapointed there was not more to this after the lovely Tokyo Black earlier in the year but decent nontheless.

Canned. Clear pale amber, small head. Interesting floral, minty lychee/tangerine aroma. Dryish and crisp, freshly hoppy and fairly light bodied with good late bitterness.

Can version. ****One thing that should be said, though it might not matter much to all you cats drinking this overseas, but this beer in the can is the best value in Japan. It costs pennies more than standard p*ss in a land where micros cost huge bucks, and really kicks it in. If you see it here, but and drink lots of it**** Big cascade hops, very, very fruity, good caramel malt. Exquisite balance. Good from start to finish. Also I must add that it is better from the cask, especially the oak cask if you are lucky enough to get it. Hold on for those ratings down the road.

Cask@GBBF2007. Deep orange colour, with mediumsized white head. Aroma is quite fruity and malty, with some slight spicyness notes. Flavour is what I would call tropical juice mixed in with some slight caramel malts and also some hints of grass and more bittering hops. A pleasant thing.
