12oz can at Kushi DC. Pours a clear, honey gold with some thin, white head. Nose is floral, sweet, honey, light citrus, yuzu. Flavor is the same, sweet, honey, lychee fruit, orange zest, honey, flower pollen. Nice enough, but a bit too much sweetness.

Can bought in a tourist shop in Nasu, Tochigi, Japan. I consumed a few of these with my wifes delightful friends at a resort in the mountains in Nasu. An amber coloured pour with a small white head on top. Hoppy, citrus fruit aroma. Tastes hoppy, citrus/tropical fruit, malty and bitter. Nice IPA.

Pours amber with a small, fading head.Nose shows sweet caramel and soft pine. Somewhat faint.Restrained flavours, with a bit of grapefruit hops and some sweet bready malt followed by an assertive bitterness.Could use more carbonation.Not overly complex but enjoyable nonetheless.

Can. Slightly hazy gold with a loosish white head. Mild aroma is fruity and dusty, with apricots, peaches, pears and oranges. Not a lot of hops in the aroma but there’s plenty of bitterness under the fairly sweet fruit. The fruit is almost syrupy. Spices and some citrus at the intensely bitter finish. What came before doesn’t really support the finish.

Can. Pours a clear orange gold with an off-white head that dissipates slowly to the edges. Aroma has a good amount of grassy hops with a hint of citrus and a pretty strong sweet grain and cookie backbone. Flavor has light citrus and a hint of flora and grass with a good amount of sweet grain in the finish.

Boks 0,35l. Spandert av larsga & Naito-san da de besøkte oss 11 Jun 12. Delt med Rune under ratesammenkomst hos ham 21 Jun. Gyldenbrun med et høyt luftig skum som klamrer seg til glasset. En forsiktig fruktig aroma. Myk munnfølelse. Sammensatt smak: Appelsin, ananas, mandler. Blir bitrere etter hvert. Tørr avslutning.

350ml can, many thanks to Naito-san and larsga. Next to clear amber body. Frothy white head, solid lacing. Moderate aroma of dried fruits. Spiced hoppy flavour, notes of plums as well. Dry, hopped ending. Hints of alcohol. Gives a rather repressed impression, a bit heavy to drink, otherwise quite alright. Shared with Finn at a tasting session in Tromsø, 21.06.2012).
