Bottle I got at Chabara in the Aki-Oka complex in Tokyo. A light gold with a soapy looking head of white foam. The aroma on this is harsh: butterscotch diacetyl, ultra-mild camomile and some odd metallic notes. The taste is sweet at first almost like they added artificial sugars, that gross metallic solvent like character, maybe - very very tentative here you get some camomile. Ok, I almost never say this but this sucks. It’s off from start to finish and having had several of Kibifote’s beer in the last year I’ve gotta say one of my least favorite Brewers in Japan. Ugh.
