Bottle at Shinshu Sake Mura. Not much aroma, little bit of sweetness but not much else. Taste is similar, kind of macro like. Tastes ok, but very innocuous. Minimal hoppiness. Not so exciting. Hope the others are better. Maybe I wasn't in the right mood!

Tap at Oedo. Great hops in the nose, grassy, herbal, citrus and spice. Flavor a bit of a disappointment though, with DMS and strange spiciness. Starts well, finishes poorly.
