Bottle @ Pigalle, Sangenjaya. Pours nice orange, ightly hazy and not very carbonated (nor has much foam). Nose is fruity, lightly juicy with some sweeter notes. Taste actually has some bitterness, still fruity and more or less heavier bodied. Interesting concept of no IBU, flavour-wise would not say it, tastes quite normal.

AJB Sunset Flip Gose 4.8% Tap at Komachi's event. Last beer of the night for me, milky opaque honey orange gold with a coriander herbal aroma. Light bodied, salty tangy and sour. It is a bit lactic and cocktail like but refreshing.

Tap at Komachi. Lightly opaque gold with a wispy head, light bodied with a crisp bit and peppery herbal bible hops. Soft impression, tasty and clean. Another beer perfect for canning with amazing drinkability.

Shared by KL at the Komachi Tap Takeover. Deep inky black with a wispy rusty tan head. The aroma is chocolate and whiskey. Heat, medium bodied, kind of rhum like tangy acidic but chocolatey. Odd but interesting.

Tap at Komachi. Oh yeah this is the hazy stuff! Nice mango tropical fruit juicy hop bouquet. Medium bodied and crazy smooth, the taste has a bit of boozy heat but lots of juicy hops. Really good stuff.

Tap at Komachi. Not super hazy or turbid but a nice honey orange amber with a big juicy aroma. Medium bodied with a pretty smooth round carbonation. The taste is juicy fruity with tropical fruits and herbal piney notes. Smooth and balanced.Listed as a Hazy IPA but I'd call it a Juicy one rather. Ap 3-4 Ar 8 t 8 p 4 o 13-4

Tap at Komachi. Black, light dull hazy, a toch of lace. Nose is complex, chocolate, light to medium vinegar, wood, rum more than whiskey but whiskey too, vanilla, brown sugar, berries, fig or raisin. Sweet and sour, quite acetic, chocolate syrup, berries, licorice. Very flat and a bit thin. Interesting and unique sour whiskey stout. Enjoyable.
