12oz bottle. Well it says German style but this was pure hitachino, tasted like a slightly darker version of the white ale. Poured fizzy and very clear for a hefe, a lot more of that lemony zip you get from the white ale. Clean finish. If they just called this a witte I’d be happier with it.

Аромат весьма пряный, много специй как у витбира, ощущаются дрожжи. По всей видимости в пиве много белка так как пенка отличная, хотя цвет средний. Вкус странный для пшенички. Похоже на водянистый бельгийский блонд и витбир. Много специй, дрожей, сама пшеничка хорошо ощущается. Послевкусие с легкой хмелевой горчинкой и кислинкой при глотке. Немного алкоголя, когда пиво постоит. В целом нормас.

Bottle from the Low Cost Beer online shop. Pours hazy orange with a short-lived thin white head. Aromas of light banana sweets and dough. Taste adds some light spice. Sweet finish.

24/10/2024. Draft at Hitachino Brewing Marunouchi, Tokyo Station. Pours cloudy pale orange gold with a small frothy white head. Aroma is sweet, wheaty, orange, coriander, citrus, banana hints. Quite sweet with mild bitterness and slight tartness. Moderate body, smooth, low carbonation. Nice.

Bottle from Drinkmonger. Hazy golden body with a white head that slowly fades. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of coriander, dried orange peel and wheat. Flavour of white pepper, rice and dried apricot. Medium body with a smooth mouthfeel. Soft fizz. Crisp and refreshing.
