Tap at Bungalow. This is a fresh hop golden ale, I was torn between ordering this and the fresh hop ESB from Iwate Kura (though that Ise Kadoya Comfortable APA also looked good). Clear brassy gold with a dense white head and a mild herbal hop aroma. Light crackery malts with herbal fruity flavor but a dry finish that features soda bread. A good golden ale but it doesn’t really feature fresh hop that much and so slightly let me down. 3.6
