Yokai is a delightfully balanced blend of bright Yuzu citrus, umami from the seaweed and gentle spice from Sichuan peppercorns. It takes inspiration from Yadokai, our infamous sake-inspired 13% beer.

03.02.2018, tap @ Bergen International Whisky & Beer Festival:
Nice fizzy-creamy mediumlasting head. Aroma is slightly dry sour-ish grainy, leafs, hay, minerals, grain, citrus, yeast, oak, moss, paper, wash cloth. Taste is slightly dry grassy, hay, grain, minerals, paper, leafs, moss, wash cloth, yeast, citrus. Little bitterness, watery and slightly harsh grainy. So boring.

Vom Fass im Muted Horn Berlin 2018-01 getrunken. Dieses mit Yuzu, Pfeffer und Seegras gebraute Bier ist wieder so ein Wild Beer was so gar nicht auf meiner Wellenlänge liegt. Die Aromen sind irgendwie nicht deutlich erkennbar und nur eine sanfte Säure ist da. Und das ist mir deutlich zu wenig und somit ist das ein Bier was ich gar nicht brauche. Total belanglos!

330ml can. Clear, pale gold with a thin white head. Aroma is strange, citrus and something herbal, tea maybe. Flavour is lemon, soap and more of that herby flavour, which I assume is the seaweed. Interesting but not really my cup of tea

Can. Beer Central, Sheffield. Pale straw colour. Soft haze. Film and ring of white head. Nose has plenty of the yuzu citrus. A little briny. Some clean, dry grain. Taste has some sweet and sour character. Hint of salinity. Mouthfeel is light and refreshing, with a little spicy bite from the pepper. Finishes up fruity and lightly dry. Nice one.

Can from Westhill Service Station. It pours clear pale yellow - gold with a small white head. The aroma is savoury, umami, green, earthy, green vegetables, seaweed, fennel, sweet citrus, lemonade and toasty grain. The taste is crisp, dry, more sweet that sour, straw, loads of umami, green veg, musty, touch lemony, lactic, dry funk and soda water with a dry, green veg finish. Light - medium body and moderate, prickly carbonation. Far too much seaweed / green vegetables and far too little tartness or yuzu. Not great.

On tap at Wild Beer at Jessop House. Pours pale. Lemon, soap, slight lager acidity, nice salinity, weird umami quality. Interesting.
