Strong spiciness, clove? Nice saison feel but not so easy drinking.

One more time:

Dunno what happened last time but this is really nice. Light strawberry and cream, hops work really well.

Nice. Fruity, feels a touch boozy, but quite pleasant

Tap at iBrew. Minerals, light banana, quite spritzy. Grainy. Good. Little bit fruity. Creamy. Suprisingly nice.

Keyaki. Little bit of sweetness, nice enough. Big middle score. Was wrecked by this stage.

Tap at the Mile Post. Dry, light grassy hops, floury. Bit sweet. Fades a little further down, but nice enough.

Zumona Ibuki Hop Saison Tap at a festival in Kyoto Art Center near Shijo. 500¥ spicy cloudy be and wheat aroma, medium bodied with a rough chewy wheat character, the taste has cloves and spices. Rough around the edges but ok, better than I expected from Zumona. Looks like it's improved over the 2017 version, who knows maybe 2019 may even start to edge into the good-above average range.
