On tap at CBM Koenji. Cloudy gold color with a medium sized white head. Big aromas of earl grey, lemon and sugar on the nose. Taste is more of the same with the sugar really standing out as it warms up. The lemon as well starts to take over and it becomes a bit like a sugared up lemonade. Not much of beer quality. Sticky mouthfeel and soft carbonation. Too cloying for me. Not my cup of...tea. --- Beer merged from original tick of Earl Grey on 05 Jun 2015 at 23:12 - Score: 5

On tap at the Craft Beer Picnic in Osaka. Earl Grey 5.5%- it pours a cloudy straw gold with a foamy white fluffy head. The aroma is a floral Earl Grey, a bit gimmicky but nice. The taste is sweet, earl grey, a bit malty, a touch of sugar & a hint of lemon. Really well done, you’d honestly thick taste-aroma wise this was a cup of iced earl grey with a wedge of lemon and a bit of sugar syrup. The sweetness does get a bit cloying after awhile...

Draft - Earl grey tea with sugar. Hazy gold with a thin head. Peach tea and a a bit astringent. Refreshing and a nice tea beer.

Draught at 2010 Best Beer Selection, Osaka. Light gold color with lace. Big Earl Gray and lemon aroma with honey. Super sweet flavor, with honey, tea, lemon. Cloying and sweet, though a bit fun as a dessert beer. Little beer taste, though.
