Tap at Ushi Tora. Usual hideji stuff, floury and wheaty, decent fruitiness, sweet citrus, orange. Lightly tropical. Initially seems thin but crisp, but has quite full aftertaste.

Bottle from Tanakaya. Dark chocolate brown colour, small gold head. Aroma is sweet and chocolatey, bit of caramel, roasty malt. Taste is sweet and rich and also a bit fruity, maybe berries of some sort. Finish is caramel and like Tim said like Rolos. Very smooth and very nice.

Tap at iBrew. Pale blonde, bit hazy, small white bubbly head. Aroma is light citrus. Lemon and bit of orange. Taste is nice, subtle citrus, orange and lemon, slight sourness, bit floury but just a hint. Nice and crisp. Bitter citrus finish. Very easy drinking. Maybe a touch thin, but definitely a thirst quencher.

Tap at Dry Dock. Dark brown colour, small golden head. Aroma is coffee roasty, not much else. Taste is similar, coffee, with a bit of beer. Lighter than most coffee beers, so nice drinkability, naturally less full bodied than a coffee stout. It's alright, but maybe not so exciting. Coffee IPAs and stouts seem to make more sense to me than coffee lagers.

Apparently my 1,000th distinct Japanese beer. WTF! Good one to celebrate. This is one of Japan's finest beers. Tasted even better than usual
