Keyaki. Marshmallow mixed with vegetables. Bit of roast, but not great. Seems a bit wrong.

Keyaki. We have reached the bottom of the set. Not hoppy, not malty not much of anything apart from stink. Skunky, not good at all. Sweaty sock smell.

Keyaki. Bit boring, caramel not much else. Probably won't be seeking them out again...

Keyaki. Alright, grainy, light bitterness, nothing too offensive to me. Bit creamy. One of the better ones in the set...

Tap at BeerFes Osaka 2018. Nice fruity hop nose, citrus, caramel, stone fruit. Rather typical flavors of caramel, citrus. Balanced and decent.

Nomikurabe @ Oedo Beer Festival at Machida. Pours deep orange, some foam on top and looks pretty hazy. Nose is a bit soapy, on top of some relatively sweetish malty base. taste is super well balanced, lots of citrus there, super fruity but does not become unpleasant, good hop balance. Feels more like a light session IPA, fruity and smooth. I would say that they are actually using some citrus fruits here, otherwise would be too difficult to get this effect from hops and yeat alone. Good one, surprised me positively.

Nomikurabe @ Oedo Beer Festival at Machida. Pours amber, not totally clear but also not hazy. Good carbonation hat keeps that small beige head there, intact even after 5 minutes. Taste is malty, light toffee-caramel, super light bitterness. Taste has light citrus, malty base of course, still some hops and overall quite well balanced. Not a very exciting beer style but as an amber its not half bad.

Nomikurabe @ Oedo Beer Festival at Machida. Pours deep dark brown, almost black. Foam on top is light brown, looks like a stout should. Nose has some light roast, hint of lacto. Tastes dry, light roast bitterness, quite clean actually and only a bit of some yoghurty lacto thing that is not really that bad. Decent dry stout, does not wow me but I am happy drinking this.
