ベルギー発祥のセゾン酵母に、アメリカンIPAによく使われるホップをかけ合わせたホッピーなセゾンは『アメリカン・ベルゴスタイル・エール』と分類されています(米国Brewers AssociationのBeer Style Guidelinesより)。奈良醸造ではこのスタイルの定番商品として「FUNCTION」がありますが、今回はその新作。 主役のホップはHüll MelonとMosaic。グラスを傾けると、まずはHüll Melon由来の熟したメロンのような香りが感じられ、次に口に含めば、Mosaic由来の様々な果実感が口中に溢れ、セゾン酵母由来の清涼感が喉を通り抜けていき、果実感を伴った爽やかな苦味が余韻として残ります。ドライな仕上がりに、わずかな酸味が相まって、ホップの香りを楽しみつつもドリンカブルな一杯です。
This time of release is American-Belgo-Style Ale brewed with Saison yeast, which originated in Belgium, combined with hops used in current American IPAs. The main hops are Hüll Melon and Mosaic. It has complex aroma, like ripe melon by using Hüll Melon hop, and also like berry and tropical fruits by using Mosaic hop. The top aroma is good combination of hops and ether from Belgian yeast and have an elegant bitterness for aftertaste, but the finish is slightly dry.

medium body. Slight tart and funky. Big yeasty character. Modestly hoppy. A bit simple and light but not bad.

Can from ISetan. Nose is stone fruit, oranges, peaches, grapefruit, spicy yeast, bready malt. Melon. Slightly hazy pale gold with a huge, fine head. Low sweetness, bready malt, big fruit, spicy yeast, solid bitterness. Dry finish. Well done but not very surprising.

no notes at all. If I remember rightly, was kind of IPA saison hybrid and was nice, but not mind-blowing.
