Johana Ore no Saison Masaru IPS 4.5% On tap at Craft Beer Holiday.
A nice orange gold with an off-white head. Big peppery and spicy aroma with a solid saison aroma. Bready, tart, lemon and wheat flavor. A crisp clean saison with lots of lemon. A cut above their regular releases and a top quality saison.

licking vanilla chocolate cake drenched in bourbon. I just canβt believe there is no nose. Super smooth mouth. Light body. Just a bourbon lovers heaven. Omg. This is not about balance depth etc this is just about bourbon barrel imperial Porter. Fucking awesome

dark brown color. Dark plums and chocolates nose. The mouth is rich, chocolately, slightly boozy, medium body, slight whiskey notes. Great depth. Great mouth feel but a bit boozy rich. Big rich plum and chocolate finish.

Tap at Toranomon. Very pale gold-pink color, clear, looks like colored water. Low head. Nose is rosewater, gummi bears, some cherry, lemonade. Sweet, disgustingly sweet, cherry gummi bears and over-sweet lemonade. Thin and sugary. This is gross. Nothing about this is beer.

Tap at CBM Jimbocho. Caramel and toffee nose with some apricot and stone fruit as it warms. Malty, British-style IPA without much going on. Easy drinking and better than Johanaβs fruit forays. Meh simple enough.

Soft darjeeling aromas with some light jasmine notes as well with a hint of honey. Sweet tea like body on the palate but easily quaffable. Not really beer like but OK for what Johana wants to do.

Tap at CBM Koenji. Ruby red grapefruit, pink lemonade nose with some light bubblegum. Very alcopop-like more so than beer. Sweet on the palate, but the carbonation is refreshing. Itβs not beer, but fun I guess.

Tap at Craft Heads. Clear deep gold with a finger of white foam that lingers thoughout. Light wheat notes with grassy hops and hints of orange and pine. Medium body with average carbonation. A little boozy when it warms, but still a very good beer from Johana. Fairly well-balanced and bitter finish.
