Tap at Takanoya. Lovely fruit nose, grapefruit mostly, some white grape. Bright golden color. Clear. Nice fruity sweetness, grapefruit, stone fruits, minerals. Silky and a bit oily, crisp and not heavy for a big ipa. Quite nice stuff.

Tap at Takanoya. Brilliant gold with a bit of haze. big tropical fruit nose, grapefruit, orange. Crisp malt. Sweet tropical fruit and citrus flavor, peppery, orange, juicy but not in the NE way. There is some stinky durian or over-ripe mango in there too. Good.

2018 version at Takanoya, 6%. Toasty malt nose, chocolate, some miso. Deep brown with orange tints. Very toasty flavor, dark chocolate, light caramel, miso, nice bitter hop finish. Good stuff.

Tap @ iBRREW Sinbashi. Pours light yellow, even watery and with very little foam on top. Light citrus nose, some herbal kick there, lime peels and a hint of juniper. Taste has good light citrus all over, herba are quite strong but not overpowering, it still tastes like beer. Refreshing overall. Well made.

slightly hazy pale golden color. Nice frothy white head. Very lime forward gose with decent saltiness in the background, but not as tart as some might expect - though I am fine with that. Light body, excellent G&T notes. Super refreshing, light medium tartness. The lime shines. Perfectly balanced. Amazing summer beer. Could somewhat be mistaken for a G&T!? Don’t think so but love it.

Turbid muddy amber golden color. Dank dank nose that is slightly grassier than expected but good dried mango character. Dank mouth with low medium bitterness. Tons of white gummy bears, mangoes, muscat and a touch of grassiness. Mouthfeel is ok, it’s not as smooth as some NEIPAs, but isn’t over carbonated like other. Carbonation could be turned down a half notch. Nice white gummies and mango in the finish. Not mind blowing but certainly one of the better NEIPAs in japan

Tap @ iBrew Shinbashi. Pours clear golden with some white foam on top. Nose is beautiful, fresh, floral and blossoming with light tropics. Taste has good fruity base and balanced bitterness, totally crushable. No gimmicks, just a really good IPA, as they should be.

Bottle courtesy of George, shared with the Craft Brewed crew. Pours a clear copper, mahogany with a finger of beige head that lingers. Roasted toffee, charred kokuto and tomitsu aromas with some grassy and woody notes as it warms. Bitter on the palate, with walnut, sticks, bark and more charred tomitsu. Quite bitter finish that lingers with leafy hops, walnut shell and toasted toffee.
