A find at Seijo Ishii today: Echigo Always a White 5% Cloudy gold with a thick eggshell white head of foam. The aroma is more lemony and eggy than yesterday’s Yo Ho White. My initial impression of it was the flavor was a bit rough, it is growing on me with its zesty crisp citrus though the malt character remains rough and not so well integrated. Medium bodied but too gassy... ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Can from my local Natural Lawson. Pours dirty orange, some white foam but not too much of it. Herbal-spicy aroma, mixed with some wheat sour. Feels edgy and taste is even more robust, some waste water there, so not that well balanced and not really clean. Some light gingery glow in the finish, drinkable but well, not that great.

At a tasting, small quickly dissapearing bubbly head, light vazy yellow color, aroma of wheat, lemon and toothpaste, flavor of wheat almond and toothpaste. Fair and well made, but not too exciting.

Tap at Tatsu, NRT airport. Amber colour, good white head. Malty, sticky hoppy aroma. Medium-bodied. Very sticky hayish, piney bitterness. Unbalanced bitterness.

350ml can from a department store in Fukuoka. Reddish brown, very moderate hop aroma/flavor. Instead the well known red caramel flavor carries it. Bit of a strange mixed aftertaste, almost nutty and almost fruity but neither of them comes through clearly. Pretty tasty overall.
