Bottled at 2012 GJBF Osaka. Cloudy, pastel gold, fine head. Nice apple nose, cider-like, not so complex but pleasant. Flavor is sweet, slightly buttery, apple, bready. Too much diacetyl.

Wheat Lager from Gotemba Kogen

6.5/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6
Draught at 1020. Pretty cloudy, weizen-like appearance. Grainy, wheat nose. Sweet wheat flavor, with nice grainy malt and very light hopping. Nice malts but too sweet: needs more bitterness. Nice enough nose, though but nothing much is happening hop-wise.

6.8/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7
Cask at JCBF 2012. Medium to dark brown with a tall, fine, pillowy head. Nose of caramel and chocolate. Simple, malty, sweet flavor, fruity, rich cocoa and malts. Tasty, though not very roasty or hoppy. But still rather dry. Smooth, full palate. Ok stuff.

Bridal Ale from Gotemba Kogen
15 years ago
5.8/10 — Appearance 4 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6
Draught at the Great Japan Beer Festival, Osaka, 2011. Not really sure about the style. Could be a wheat ale. Pale, cloudy yellow color. A bit of hops noticeable in the flowery nose. Sweet taste, pilsner malts with a bit of fruit, not much hops. Drinkable but light and non-descript. Sweet, flowery, and cute like a new bride.

Dunkel from Gotemba Kogen
16 years ago
4.8/10 — Appearance 4 Aroma 5 Flavor 5 Texture 4 Overall 5
Bottle from Yamaya in Kanazawa. Light brown-amber color with orange and a low, quickly disappearing head. Fruity, vinous aroma with caramel and some roast. Light caramel flavor. Slightly roasting, fruity and a bit tart. Not at all dunkel-like. Has a decent dry finish, though. Too watery and thin. Their worst beer by far.
