Draft at Devil Craft during RBJG2. Hazy golden yellow color, medium white head. Smells and tastes exactly as you might expect.

On tap at Lezzet and part of my 1000 yen tasting set. It said it was a honey ale but I didn’t pick up on honey at all. It had a malty bitter taste with very little carbonation and a thin mouthfeel. Disappointing. I guess this beer has changed since KyotoLefty reviewed it.

Draught at Eni-bru. 3 months aged after a brett-only fermentation, I gathered. Nose of citrus, light funk, earl grey in the end. Pale gold color, clear, no head. Interesting. Light body, clean, citrus flavor with light funk and Alka Seltzer. Nice enough dryness, though a bit too metallic and medicinal. Decent, though it could be more sour and dry. Could use more aging, I think. Not a bad beer, though, considering the strange concept.

Draught at the Great Japan Beer Festival, Osaka, 2011. Kind of interesting pinkish-white color. Aroma of lychee. Tastes mainly like lychee fruits but still manages to taste like beer. Tangy, fruity, clean. It works.

Draught at the Eni-Bru 4th Anniversary Celebration. Bright pink ranging towards pastel red color with a think, fine head and seeds. Looks silly. Belgian yeast aroma, dry, with citrus and tomato. Sweet, tangy, fruity flavor, a bit saison-like, with a cocktail quality as well. Nice sour edge. Drinkable and just saison-like enough.

Draught at the Eni-Bru 4th Anniversary Bash. Dark dark color with lace. Big fruity aroma, tangy, a bit of funky yeast. Cherries predominate in the mouth, sour edge is nice, a bit funky in a Belgian sort of way. Nice fruit quality, not so beery. Ok.
