7/10
Osaka Beer Holiday festival 9/10. A bit too sweet for me, but good on this hot day and an easy break from heavier brews.

Bad color. Messed up sour malty with chocolate and celery. The remake was worse than the original

Slightly hazy, light wheat nose. The meeting mouth is a bit heavier with some dicyatle. Rice makes the beer smoother. Not as good as the regular but not bad

On tap at Raku. Pours a clear yellow amber color with a medium white head. A nice earthy sweet nose. Really reminds me of corn, very sweet, toast, light citrus. Solid.

Tap at Gifu Beer Matsuri 2017. Not a true gose, but a saison base with citrus fruit and salt added. Cloudy gold with lace. Pretty. Crackery malt nose, citrus, wheat, biscuit. Sweet and fruity, crackers and biscuits on the malt side, citrus, salt. No lactic acid. Spicy yeast. Decent. 6/4/7/3/14

Yeasty medium brown. Thick head. Fairly toasty, touch of fruity hop, touch of diacetyl. Toasty, bit of chocolatey sweetness...again finding a touch of diacetyl under there but barely perceptible. Good but the clumsy elements are disappointing.

Dark brown color. Lots of chocolate cake, fudge with citrus notes in the nose. Excellent fudge character with roasted malts in the mouth but modest hoppiness. Dry, really well balanced and sessionalble session black IPA

big coriander and oranges in the nose. Mouth is not as smooth as expected and rather simple. Overall just so-so.

Tap at Jibiruba. Pretty, cloudy white. Nose of yuzu, wheat, coriander. Crisp yuzu flavor, nicely done what, coriander comes out. Good, with a prickly, peppery finish and nicely dry.
