Fall Keyaki 2015. Copper color with a nice soapy off-white head. Malt forward on the nose with some light resin and grassy flavors. Soft carbonation and well-balanced if not more British in style. Not much going on and very conservative, but no off-flavors. --- Beer merged from original tick of Zanshou Pale Ale on 21 Sep 2015 at 14:13 - Score: 6

Keyaki Fall 2015. Deep brown with a small tan head that lingers throughout. Light chocolate and roasted coffee aroma with some raisin and prune. Taste is light and easy to drink with a nice roasty, bitter finish. There is some cacao in there as well. Solid porter that would be great after hitting the slopes. --- Beer merged from original tick of Ezo Porter on 21 Sep 2015 at 14:18 - Score: 7
