Tap at Yokohama Beer Fest. Completely different beer to the regular Blond, it seems, and brewed elsewhere. Deep orange-amber, nice hoppy nose, I get Nelson. Spicy, citrus flavor, some caramel and bread. Full body. Nice balance. Well done hoppy later.

Bottled. Deep, shiny blonde with a large, fine, airy head. Nose is big citrus, yuzu or mikan, Not listed on the label, but I think there is some citrus added. Wheat malt, very juicy. Could be hops only? doubt it. Get a bit of the cat piss from the Nelson. Lovely citrus flavor on crisp, dry wheaty malt, peppery finish. Sweet in the middle, ends dry. Crisp. Excellent witbier. Very refreshing and quaffable, but holds up to winter cold as well. Very fruity, I think yuzu has been added, peel and juice. It has the juice in the nose. Can’t be only hops, it seems. The nose especially is very citrusy like juice. Love that spicy, peppery finish. This is a completely different beer than the last one I rated. Tap at Yokohama Beer Fest 2015 as Weizen Edition: 6/4/7/4/13. Not sure if they are different beers. Creamy, biscuity, what nose. Orange, lemon, a bit of tart and creamy yogurt. Original and decent. --- Beer merged from original tick of Tokyo White (2017~) on 29 Mar 2019 at 02:03 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 8.

From tap at Beerfes Tokyo. Light and transparent, thin layer of foam. Aroma is slightly yeasty, fruits, maybe melon but also some fresh malts. Taste is rather unusual, based rather on the malt side, some fruity yeast. Aftertaste is has some lingering bitterness. Easy-drinking beer, reminds me a saison.

Had this bottle maybe for a year, so it has aged a bit. Very fizzy, lot of foam. Colour is dirty reddish brown. Aroma is really up to your face, full of soft herbs, sweet sticky herb liquor. Taste is fizzy, some herbs, candy sugar. Aftertaste long, some hoppy spikes of bitterness, alcohol. Very Belgian. Good!

Sehr süßer Geruch, der im Antrunk nur bedingt erkennbar ist. Deutlich fruchtig mit leichter Süße, süffig, speziell mit seinen Gewürznoten. Süß herber Nachhall. 10/9/9/8/9/9

Bottle at the GJBF Osaka 2014. Not that red actually an amber brown. The nose is VERY juicy orange, it is highly carbonated, sharp mouthfeel. Kind of bitter, orange, grapefruit, coriander, some lemon or lemon verbana. A mouth-puckering chalky finish. Good but not my cup of tea, this was too spicy for me. I am glad I tried this at the fest as a bottle retails for like 20$ and I don’t think it is worth that hefty price tag.
