Keg at Kanazawa. Deep brown, medium head. Piny, citrus nose with caramel and chocolate notes. Quite hoppy, somewhat resiny, citrus, caramel malt. Well balanced and good drinking.

A roughly 500¥ beer from Shiga Kogen? Yes please! Shiga Kogen Hoppy Brown Goes Up 6% Deep brown verging on black with a thick creamy looking beige head of foam. This beer has a big piney sweet aroma that is slightly dank but extremely inviting. Medium bodied, silky smooth with a well balanced hop forward flavor that then gives you some subtle roasty cocoa maltiness. Good stuff, wish I’d gotten more.
