Tap at Boku to Inu's Beer Zen launch Event. A fairly clear and deep shiny gold with a fruity (stone fruit) hop bouquet. Fullish bodied, nice balanced stuff that went down smooth.

Tap at Bakujun. Decent enough citrus nose. Served at the right temperature for sure but rather flat. Would like more carbonation to bring out the hops better. A rather boring one for this series, lemony, orange hops.

Tap at Takumi. Clear golden orange with a low, thick head. Orange, pine, biscuit, white grape and nectarine nose. Great fruity flavor, light resin, rich malt. Soft and full with light carbonations. Old school, but not really. Great.

Dark brown with squint beige foam, still leaving nice brownish lacings. Nose lightly lactic, still some roast there, black berries and milk chocolate. Tastes more substantial than its low abv would suggest, roast and some dry bitter chocolate. Overall, quite drinkable, not sure how much I like that lactic character but overall definitely on the satisfying beers side.

Tap at CBM Sendai. Deep amber-orange with a light haze and a low, lacy head. Nice juicy hop nose, funky, citrus, more Mosaic than Nelson. Funky Mosaic comes out first in the flavor, then grapefruit, orange, tropical fruit and a touch of grapes. Nice.

Tap at Takumi. Deep orange, hazy. Sweaty grapefruit nose, crisp malt. Simcoe all the way. Crackery, dry flavor, grapefruit, sweaty minerals. good use of the hop.
