Bottle shared at a tasting at Max's place. Thanks mom for this bottle! Yellow-golden. Floral and citric hops, a bit zesty, grains, a bit of minerals, quite dry, bitter finish, medium-bodied. Pretty nice.

Bottle shared at a tasting at Max's place. Thanks mom for this bottle! Cloudy amber-brown. Aroma is overripe fruits, yeast, caramel, smokiness. Sweetish flavor with toast, caramel, some nuts, nice smokiness. Medium-bodied. Decent.

Not bad, but a little something's missing. Nice and roasty, though.

Whew, I picked right. This Hiroshima beer has not a single Roman letter on the label and they all look the same except the style in Japanese

Hmm, good one! My 2nd barley wine. This Japanese one is almost good as the Rogue.

Keg at Ant ’n Bee - Tokyo. Pours clear ruby with a creamy, khaki head. Moderate smoke in the nose, some ripening apples, toasted wholegrain bread. Medium sweet flavour with notes of candied ham, mild campfire, brown bread, low bitterness. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Decent balance to the finish, with restrained smokiness, sturdy malty sweetness, more bread, light caramel, a little alcohol. Very nice overall.

Tap at Takumiya. Piny, lemony nose, oranges, grapefruit, light caramel and bready malts. Glowing orange-amber, hazy. Lovely grains, great hops, chewy malts, a bit of chocolate. Crisp, bitter and excellent. Good hoppy amber. Kure’s IPAs are finally catching up with their lagers in quality.

Tap at Takumi. Deep brown with red and orange tints, hazy, with a low thick head. PRetty. Rich smoky nose, bacon, some caramel and chocolate. Rich bacon flavor, very smoky, caramel, grains. It is a somewhat ale-like fruity tartness and acidity that is not terrible but isn’t welcome in a lager. Some cherry and apple. Medium body, soft carbonation. Good but could be improved.

Tap at Takumiya. Shiny black with a low, thick fine head. Lovely chocolate and citrus nose, oranges, lemon, some coffee. Light and crisp with nice hops. Malt is light, dry, woody and roasty. Good citrus hops. A session beer, probably better for summer, nice nice and easy drinking.
