Bottle from Kansai Station. Pours a deep, hazy, glowing orange. Pretty. Not at all the color I expected but I guess they are using some darker malts. Nose is citrus, lemony, green tea, light biscuity malts. Delicate. Flavor is more caramel malt and fruity, herbal green tea. Rich, lovely malt flavor that I am not sure is the best to show off the tea, but tastes great. Seems like Munich and some carapils. Light hops, tea comes though but does not dominate. A really well balanced beer that is tasty and anything but gimmicky in flavor.
