Bottle. Haus der 131 Biere. Clear, golden beer with an off-white head. Malty, beefstock-like nose with dark sugar and a little spiced touch. The flavor has a spiced touch to a slightly bready, sugary maltyness, finishing with a pleasant bitterness. Medium to full body, quite dry. A bit strange maybe, but a decent beer. 090822

Draught at the Craft Beer Festival in Ichinoseki, Iwate. Pale yellow and glowing. Fruity, citrus, biscuity malt aroma.. Light, fruity, citrus flavor with bubblegum and ok hops. Slightly hoppy finish. Not much going on here. Ok but rather flavorless and unexciting.
