Tap at the pub. The pick of the bunch. Nice long lingering banana wheat sweetness at the finish. Aroma has less banana and is more wheaty, something a little strange, bit of booze. Nice. --- Beer merged from original tick of Dunkelweizen on 09 Sep 2019 at 16:05 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 9 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 8. Original review text: Tap at the pub.

Tap at the brew pub. Reckon this has changed a lot since KL rated it. Looks more like a dubbel! Aroma is roasty and herbal. Has a sweetness to it too. Bit burnt caramel, black treacle. Like no tripel I've ever had before. Aniseed. All over the place. Spicy. A strange experience. At times quite nice, but a bit confused and one was enough.

Tap at the brewery. Grainy, light citrus bitterness. Aroma is very wheaty. Easy drinking but low on excitement for me.

Tap at the pub. Subtle, bit light fruity/floral sweetness. Quite thin but easy drinking. Strawberry-like maybe. Insubstantial but alright. --- Beer merged from original tick of Hibiscus on 09 Sep 2019 at 16:05 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7.

Tap at the pub. Interesting. Ultra grainy, little bit of sweetness, full body, touch of spice. Very wheaty, but that sweet thing is kind of strange. Maybe almost Belgian. --- Beer merged from original tick of Spica on 09 Sep 2019 at 16:05 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7.

Tap at the brewery. Interesting. Hoppier than last one (the supposedly hopped up Spica). Belgian sweetness again. Bit fruity. Best one so far.

Bottle from the brewery. Aroma is roasty, salty caramel, dark fruits. Taste is nice, but aroma better. Roast again, something a little weird and astringent at the start but the finish is roasty and lightly creamy. Changes a bit as you go down. Bit of plastic in there... Preferred it at the start, but it's still alright. --- Beer merged from original tick of Edomae on 09 Sep 2019 at 16:05 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7.

Bottle, taken away from the brewpub. Aroma is malty and lightly spicy, smells pretty British ale-like. Taste is maybe more Belgian. Yeasty, bit of a spritz to it, light spice, biscuity malt. Sweet too. Quite a strange one, but quite fun. --- Beer merged from original tick of Masugatajou on 09 Sep 2019 at 16:05 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 8.

hazy amber brown color. Extremely phenolic overwhelming nose that smells a bit like dish water. The mouth is much better. Mildly sweet. Very malty lots of bananas and cloves but not much chocolate notes. Full body. Low carbonation. The nose ain’t great, but mouth is decent though too low carbonation. Too phenolic. Not bad

pitch black color with dark brown head. Cacao and dark fruit notes in the nose. Big dark fudge cake notes, tobacco, dark fruit notes in the mouth with some port. WTF this is way better than the rep. Great mouth feel with modest roasted malt notes. Good fruity finish but lacks a bit of roasted malt. Still this is really good and one of best stouts I’ve had in Japan. Fantastic.
