Bottle. Aroma is sweet, caramel, light fruitiness. Taste has a tiny hint of bitterness but is all about the caramel. Malty. Not sure. Second time under a different name.... grrrr. This time Hamaji De Zon. Pleasingly, exactly the same score. Boozy sweetness, caramel and boozy fruits in the aroma, taste is similar. Bit over the top, plenty of body but slightly sickly and the booziness is a bit too much. Rasins, marzipan, not really the amber I was expecting. Tastes almost slightly Belgian. Has a kind of Belgian yeasty thing going on, possibly unintentionally, but not really for me.

Bottle. Sweet, light hoppiness, caramel and plenty of soft drink like characteristics too. Not so bad, but once again, omiyage/dark tick.

Bottle shared at "Tokyo Ratebeer Dark Tickers of The World Unite or AJB tasting volume 1" event. Thanks Neil! Clearish neon yellow with a small champagne like head that dissipates quickly. Big lemon, lime notes...almost like a sprite or 7-Up. Light body with a mineral water-like spritziness. Finish is clean and refreshing. Not really beer-like. Could have been made by Johana easily. --- Beer merged from original tick of Suginoya Pale Ale on 05 Mar 2016 at 20:09 - Score: 5

Bottle shared at Tokyo Ratebeer Dark Tickers of World Unite Tasting. Thanks Neil! Sweet, fruity caramel nose with some grain and carboard. More caramel and graininess on the palate. Some light cardboard and medicinal notes as it warms. Super sweet. Couldn’t find the hops or all natural water. --- Beer merged from original tick of Suginoya Amber on 05 Mar 2016 at 22:34 - Score: 4
