Can. Lemony citrus hops, wheat malt. A bit on the thin side. Balanced and without major flaws, just not very interesting.

Kizakura Lucky Dragon Pale Ale 5% Looks pretty good as it’s a nice Amber orange in color with a thick beige dense head of foam which lasts a long time. However, the aroma is a candyish woodsy pine with very rough edges. Medium bodied with a sharp finish, the taste is very bitter pine with a tiny bit of citrus notes. Again, it is rough and not well balanced. Honestly, I don’t know why I bother with this series. They’re probably all the same beer with a different can/label each year.

Can from Yamaya. Orange-amber, clear, thick head. Malty nose, lots of C hops, citrus, bit of pine. Decent citrus flavor, light and crisp, bit of rice, medium sweetness, soft bitterness in the finish. Approachable and easy. Not bad.

180ml aluminum cup can from Cost Plus.
Shaken. Baby Duval glass @home. Fat-free almond milk pour.
Green banana, heavy marzipan, rice pudding with clove, vodka.
Boozy rice pudding. Bittersweet, leaning bitter. Fruity non-descript berry sharpness, white rum, banana ice cream, strong vanilla extract. Veggie, moderately tannic finish. Medium high acid. Creamy-thin, big belly burn.
Kinda good if a little rough.

Straight from the can so no comments on the looks. Aroma of malts and biscuits. Taste of malts, grains, biscuits and some notes of citrus fruits. Low bitterness. Medium carbonation. Thin mouthed. Watery and insipid. Disappointing.

Icing sugar and peach. A little rice tang lingers on your tongue for a while. Can.

I’m drinking this in honor of the Ryomadouri Shotengai beer fest on today… Kizakura Devil’s Beer White Ale 5% The latest release in this devil series, has a nice fruity fragrance. Surprisingly light bodied with an abrasive carbonation. It’s a pretty generic white ale. Possibly worth trying once.

Bottle. Dark opaque green with a light green head. A bit of matcha, weeds, floral notes, tea. Not the best idea.
