Very nice. But dangerous. Lots of sweetness, candy. Rich and good.

Keyaki. Huge surprise! Very nice. Creamy, light berries. Very Belgian. Pretty great strawberries and cream. Good stuff. Loads of taste for the ABV. A total hit!

Keyaki. Taste is alright, lots of bitterness but not much else. Touch sharp. Aroma is wheaty with touch of hoppiness, grassy. Not for me.

Japan Brewers Cup. Nice aroma of dark fruit, caramel and touch of smoke. Bit of spice. Taste is good, with all the above, but lacking something.

Japan Brewers Cup. Saison yeasty aroma, very pleasant. But taste is weird. Bit sweet, but actually not a huge amount of taste. Bit disappointing.

Keyaki. Light hop aroma, grassy, lemon. Taste is decent, bit of biscuit, nice. Solid like most Kamiya beers.

Tap at JBC. Strange name. Black cherry fruitiness, but very red in colour. Some marzipan. Taste is fruity, soft drink like almost. It's nice enough, but maybe not for me.

Tap at the Brewery. Light golden colour, thick creamy white head. Aroma is quite grainy, little bit of hops, something plastic-like. Taste is nice. Grainy, bit of sweetness, some lingering fruitiness. It's ok, but not really very exciting. Second time it felt more hoppy, lemon and dry. Slight bump in the score.
