brewed for 1st anniversary of the brewery. - hazy golden color. Not much nose but somewhat orange juice-ish. Modestly dank. Not overly interesting. Medium carbonation. Nothing wrong but nothing really right either

Tap @ iBREW Shimbashi. Looks like pulpy white peach juice, totally so, no foam but super hazy. Does not really fit with my image of a cherry beer. Nose does not reveal much either, little hints of cherry, that's pretty much it . Taste is full on cherry though, does not resemble beer as such but taste wise is some sort of light alcoholic cherry drink. Not offensive and possible to drink, just does not feel like beer.

very pale hazy golden color. Frothy white head. Off sweet deep dank cherry, stewed apples and wheat in the nose. Very interesting start. Malt, light body, smooth, lots of wheat and cherries the palate is much more linear. Mildly tart. It’s not a bad palate but doesn’t deliver the depth of the nose. Still lots of cherry pit character with some baked caked. Finish is what feels a touch off. I should say off but doesn’t jive 100% with the rest of the beer. A bit uneventful and anti climatic
