Crisp and slightly hazy golden coloured body with a straw golden glow and a touch of white head, barely a centimetre tall on top. Aroma of honey, wheat, grass, hay, light coriander seed, a dash of bananas and some yeast at the tail end. Light-bodied; Extremely fresh and very subdued wheat flavour at first with a touch of coriander seed, a light dose of honey and caster sugar and very little else - perhaps a bit of curacao, but that might be pushing it. Aftertaste is clean and subdued, while being very easy to drink and incredibly wheatie, showing the caster sugar, light yeast, a dose of coriander seed and a touch of very mild nutmeg. Overall, a relatively uninspired beer, while remaining very easy-to-drink and crisp, this is not a bad wheat beer that borders on being a belgian white in terms of flavour, this is simply too mild and wheatie to have any of the real yeast strain flavours of the Belgian varietal. I sampled this 350 mL can purchased from World Liqour Mart in Daimon, Tokyo, Japan on 04-August-2019 for 268JPY sampled in my hotel room here in Tokyo, Japan a day later on 05-August-2019.
