Smoked Ale from AJB - Anglo Japanese Brewery
9 years ago
7/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7
med amber color. Light smokiness in the nose. Very malty body but restrained and refined. Slightly sweet with a touch of sourness. A mix between a German and English style beer. Pleasant , refined and well made. Can’t say I would go back to this but would appeal to lots of people

Barrel Reserve Series #09 from AJB - Anglo Japanese Brewery

7.6/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 6 Overall 7.5
Hazy dark amber. Sweet bourbon nose with oak and vanilla, strawberries with some brown sugar. Full body, malty lots of bourbon, smooth, low carbonation in the mouth. Very sweet. One of the sweetest beers I’ve ever tried, but has great potential to age and not as rough as people said. Good stuff

Libushi Scotch Ale from AJB - Anglo Japanese Brewery
9 years ago
7.3/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 8 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 8
Pours dark brown, not that much of foam there but still a bit. Aroma of caramelised sugar, toffee and molasses. Sort of what I would expect from the style. Taste is surprisingly parfumy, almost like paint. Caramel, booze and brown sugar. Body is light and drinks OK, still not fully rounded.

IPA (2016 Release) from AJB - Anglo Japanese Brewery

5.8/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 5 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6
Bottle by mail order. Metallic funky nose, grapefruit, seems off. Deep copper color, cloudy, very carbonated as with an infection. Bitter, funky flavor, grapefruit, then sweet. Fizzy and gassy. Drinkable but not nice.

7.5/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 8
Bottle. Glowing orange-red-brown with lace. Caramel nose, cherry, vanilla, wood. Sweet cherry and caramel flavor, vanilla, yogurt. Woody, peppery, prickly finish. A bit too sweet. Very good carbonation on this one. This is the best sour beer in this under-whelming series.

Double Hopped Barley Wine from AJB - Anglo Japanese Brewery

8/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 9 Flavor 8 Texture 6 Overall 9
33 cl bottle from an IP trade with TimE in Tokyo, thanks! Hazy orange color. Off white head with a thin layer retention. Aroma’s: lots of hops, resinous and piney, but also lots of malty sweetness, toffee, some sweet fruit. Retronasal: toffee, fruit, pine, resinous hops. Flavor is over moderate sweet, caramellish, with a decent bitterness. Medium bodied. Soft carbonation. Herbal hoppy finish, dry, moderate bitter. Pretty awesome brew.
