Tap at Takumi. Nose is rice, pilsner malt, light fruit, some stone fruit. Dry. Malty, rice flavor, lager character is there, but a bit of fruit and esters. Light and airy. Low hop and a bit thin. Ok, but not as appealing as their other two sake rice beers. A bit simple.

Malty, with modest hop character. This is fairly indistinguishable from the hordes of half ass made malt IPAs that many average breweries make. Expected better from Daisen

Bottle split at RB Best Hotel Lobby Share, post festival, 31/01/16. Light black wuth a decent tan cap. Nose is roast malts, light charr, chocolate, spice. Taste comprises dark fruit rinds, chocolate, black peppery spice, roast malts, faint coffee, dark toffee. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Sippable Impy ... ticks the style boxes but a touch basic.

Tap at Takumiya. Brown-orange, clear, with a low head. Light smoke but meaty nose of smoke salmon. Flaovr is decent, light, a bit sweet. Good but not as nice as their rauchbock was.

Dark amber hazy color. Sweet banana, phenolic nose. Smooth mouth feel with apricots and bananas. Can’t say I love this style but it’s pretty decent for what it is

Tap at Beer Belly. Cloudy golden orange with low lace. Super estery nose, very much Belgian yeast, with oranges, apricots, honey. Slightly tart flavor and very estery, too much so really, citrus. Medium smooth body. Decent but the esters are too much.

Tap at Before 9. This pours a deep brown with slight ruddy highlights and a filmy beige head. The aroma is stone fruits and rich dark malt sweetness. Medium bodied and dry the flavor is loads of stone fruits, cocoa bread, cinnamon, spice and zesty citrus. For the ABV it remains light and spritzy with a high drinkability.
