On tap at the GJBF Osaka. Maybe served too cold, a vegetable aroma. A slightly cloudy gold pour. The flavor is more peppery than I remember from the brewpub with less of the goya bitterness. A decent take on a lager & definitely something to try when you’re in Okinawa.

noble hops, Goya in nose. Moderately bitter dry finish. Basically a decent lager with a touch of goya.

Tap at the tap room in Naha: light, crisp lager with decent malts and good bitterness. Goya flavor comes in more at the and, a spicy, lightly vegetal bitterness. Still don’t really dig it, but much better than before. Draught at the Craft Beer Festival in Ichinoseki, Iwate. 5/3/3/3/7 Very pale yellow with a low, rocky head. Faint, dry, slightly fruity aroma, bitterness easy to predict. Bitter, dry, astringent flavor with cayenne pepper. Extremely unpleasant to me, with a taste resembling Chinese herbal medicine and a very long bitter finish. Yuck!

Bottle pours out a clear gold topped with a small white head. A odd spice and fruit aroma along with the tast. this brew reminds me of a jalapano beer. Pretty cool. thanks BückDich
