Light orange in color with a white head. Sweet malts, highly floral, light citrus, and some grass in the aroma. Full bodied for a pale. Greeted with a surprising lack of hops in the flavor. What is there is floral, light citrus, and some herbal hops. Sweet malts are rather evident. The hops finally show through in the finish with a slightly dry bitterness. A decent APA, but I was hoping for more with a name of the triple hops...

Dark reddish brown color. Molasses, Belgian Candy sugar and sweet maltiness exude from the nose. The mouth is much more herbally that has an odd mix with the molasses and chocolate flavors. Sugar cane lingers in the finish, but this is kinda like liking a pine tree. More of a Christmas beer than anything.

Draught at Popeye, Tokyo. Near black, creamy beige head. Light herbal spices fight an uphill battle against molasses. Fairly sweet with cottony softness caressing a hard crystallic heart. Above medium bodied where herbs and caramel brings some warmth. Fairly low bitterness.

Draught at Eni-bru, Osaka. Clear golden, small head. Fresh citric nose. Mid-dry and light-medium bodied. Crystallic and caramelly backdrop to citric yuzy hops. Drinkable and freshening aromatic US style pale ale with medium bitterness.

Pours a hazy amber into a shaker. Milk shake froth recedes leaving spot lacing. Soapy hop aromas. Thin and vegetal upfront. Smoothing to a lasting mild metallic resin finish.

Aroma of Genmai cha--green tea with roasted rice in it. Really, smells and tastes like tea! Not very exciting on its own, although I suspect it might go really well with sashimi, yaki tori, and all kinds of Japanese foods.

Their pale ale, but with a little better aroma, and better hop flavor than the regular, I think. Not completely different, but good. Not as much on the nose as I would like, but a lot of different hop flavors in there. Very crisp and clean.

Tap at Popeye. A bit of lace on a brilliant orange-amber colored beer. Rich caramel malt. Light fruit, some hops, a touch of alcohol. Mild but sure malt, caramel, good Scotch flavor. Full body, yet not heavy. Not at all cloying. Very well done.

Draught at Q-brick. Huge American hop aroma. Medium to dark amber color with red and ornage tint, nice fine head. Big fruit flavor, with big cascade hops as well. Also caramel and bubble gum. Long, bitter hop finish. Really smooth body. Great balance. Very nice American style IPA.

Orange with a white head. Aroma has a lot more citrus hops than your normal wheat ale. Sweet malts and sort of sugary aroma, as well. Light bitterness in the flavor. Citrus, malts, and light wheat notes. Very hoppy for a wheat. High carbonation in the body. A pretty solid wheat, though not what Iβd reach for if in a wheat mood due to the stronger than normal hopping. Tasty though.
