Far Yeast American Golden Ale Relatively clear gold with a thick head. It’s got a fruity aroma with a candyish edge to it. Medium to full bodied with a nice soft mouthfeel. The taste is candyish with an almost creamsicle character to it. Quite pleasant and I’d happily order it at a bar, it’ll satisfy though not wow. Better than most golden ales I try.

Tap at Bakuon 16. Nose is lemon and orange candy. Fruity but somehow sugary. Simple, sweet, lemon and orange flavors on top of biscuity malt. Ok but simple.

At some fancy sushi joint: pours orange with a nice frothy white head. Aroma is yuzu, citrus, somewhat malty backbone, and some other aromas I jad a little difficulty pinpointing. Taste is lightly sweet. Quite citrusy. Not too thick body. Low bitterness. Interesting flavors. Better than expected. Also did not realize how much alcohol was in this one.

Bottle shared at a tasting at troubles’s place. Hazy amber. Aroma with lots of spiciness (coriander, pepper), flowers, some yuzu, a bit of earth. Flavor is mildly sweetish with some malt, spiciness, yuzu, flowers, and a bitterish finish. Medium-bodied. Decent.

Sampler at AEON Liquor Asagaya. Very big, juicy yuzu nose with some light citrusy notes. Really hides the abv well. Good carbonation with more yuzu on the palate, slightly pulpy in a good way. Herbal and peppery sansho finish but not overdone like so many sansho beers. Dry through and through. A really great wit. --- Beer merged from original tick of KAGUA BLANC on 23 Apr 2016 at 16:04 - Score: 7. Original review text: Yuzu and yeasty wit line nose. Hides the abv well. Sancho onthe finish. Herbal and peppery. Very nice.
