Kinshachi platinum On tap at GJBF 2016. A cloudy light gold with a somewhat tangy Weizen like aroma leaves me confused as I thought it was a Pilsner. Full wheaty body with good clove notes tells me this must be a Weizen and a decent one at that. They need to change the name on this and it’d sell better.

Tap at Beer Fes Osaka 2015. Nose of lemon candy. Tart lemony flavor. Tasty but nothing like beer.

Bottle at a standing bar in Tokyo station. Clear golden straw color with a small white head. Slight aromas of earthy hops and a bit of fruit as it warms up. Sweet on the palate with the malts pushing to the front. Slightly bitter finish. Just OK.

330ml bottle pours out a copper color topped with a tan sand head. Nose is old cereal malts and and a touch of grassy hop. Taste is pretty much all malts and a tad of hoppy bitterness on the end.

Tap at Komachi. Cloudy, deep golden color. Full clove and banana nose. Very spicy, great cloves, some nutmeg and cinnamon, peach and banana. A bit too sweet, but full bodied and good. Best of the beers under this label.

330ml bottle from a friend. Poured into a shaker pint. Golden orange color with a slight bit of haze and a fairly nice soapy head. Slight toasted malt aroma with a smidgen of citrus. Soft, slightly creamy mouthfeel with a bready quality. Dry crisp finish. Not all that interesting.

Kinshachi IPA on tap at Craft Beer Man - I was sure I’d rated it before. A clear ruddy red pour with a thick beige head and a woodsy one bark like aroma. Medium-light bodied with an earthy pine bark bite and some residual sweetness in the finish. Quite nice.

On tap at the GJBF in Osaka 2014. A slightly opaque gold, thin filmy head. Rich bready malt nose. Soft mouthfeel, the flavor is kind of average but satisfying.
