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.

On tap at Okinawa fest in Yoyogi park. Hazy light yellow color. The nose is fairly tart with pungent Shiquasa notes. The mouth is light, tart and highly refreshing. On the verge of tasting like a soda pop, though not too sweet. Great summer beer.

Can from Mick, 5%, served in a snifter and drunk on the train home. A dark black, pretty much black pour with alight beige fizzy head. The aroma is sweet candy roasted chocolate sweetness. The taste is roasty chocolate & sweet fruity dark malts. A solid though unexciting dark beer.
