Can from Daiei. Drank straight from the can. Aromas of cucumber, apple, fructose and alcohol. Taste is similar with cardboad and wet hay coming out as well. Active carbonation with weird dry and sweet quality. Becomes like a chuhai on the finish. Nasty stuff. --- Beer merged from original tick of Goya Dry on 29 May 2015 at 19:30 - Score: 4

Can from Daiei. Drank straight form the can. Nice shikwasa nose with some metallic and bread-like notes present. Taste is like sugar syrup in a chuhai. The flavors separate into something not good. Metal, plastic, corn syrup and sweet citrus all present. Body is ultra thin and sugary with a slightly chalky mouthfeel. No body to speak of. --- Beer merged from original tick of Sheequarsar White Ale on 15 May 2015 at 20:14 - Score: 4

Pours dirty pale, hazy and not very nice colour actually. Foam is also not like weizen’s at all, I wonder if this can could have been an odd one. Aroma is wheaty, sweet bananas and a bit of cloves. Bit too sweet and bubblegummy for me. Taste feels carbonated, has some banana and fruitiness but in general is does not leave very fresh impression. Hmmm... When I had this beer maybe 2 years ago, I remember I actually liked it. This time, not really.

Draught at the brewpub. Nose of bready malt, biscuits, some corn. Golden color. Sweet and biscuity, with some DMS. Ok hops in the finish: peppery with some lemon. Sweet, though decent I guess but the DMS is very disappointing.

Can from Le Collier. Citrus and wheat nose, not as sour as lemon. Bread, sugar. Ok nose, but I see that this has a lot of adjuncts, and it comes through. Sweet and fruity, citrus, bread, and again something quite candy-like. Rather full, creamy body. Fruit flavors are decent, but they need to take the malt bill more seriously. They are getting away with the lowest Happoshu category tax on this, and we are paying beer prices, so it makes good profit, but they are cheating on the malt. No wheat used, it seems. A nice idea, could be much better.

Can, a slightly cloudy pour with a thick fluffy eggshell white head, the nose is fruity mostly some kind of citrus/orange type aroma. The body is smooth and quite full, the taste is decent more fruity than weizen like, a good wheat profile, no hops really and mostly classic orange sheequarser fruit notes. Ok.
