Full on coriander initially. Aroma of soda stream cola! Taste has the orange, a bit of dark maltiness with a touch of caramel sweetness. Not so much coriander in the taste. Very original.

Tap at CBM Sendai. Nice. Like a light hoppy pale ale. Little bit of citrus but malt shines through. Crackers, light bitterness. Quite dry. Very easy drinking. First beer of the session and it really hit the spot.
