Very hazy. I’m not a hazy fan (which everyone who has ever met me will know is an understatement), but this saved by the sabro. Somehow I can give hazies with sabro a pass.
Alright. Some kind of strawberry taste lingering there at the back. It’s not mentioned in the description so maybe it’s not intentional. Otherwise fairly authentic though.
Like most west coast pils this tastes like a session ipa. But on this occasion it’s quite strong too. Lots of citrus. It’s fine but there’s no hint of the pils.

Big solid over ripe mangos and citrus character. Super smooth and excellent hop character. Love this.

looks like a mango milkshake. Very pale orange color. Nice light tart palate with lots of mango and a touch of sake kasu character but overall the sake Kasu makes it very cloudy but dioesnt distract from the mango. Full body but very quaffAble. Good stuff

Tap at Porta. Hazy gold with a tall head. Wheaty nose, estery, lemon, orange. Biscuity wheat malt flavor is rich and smooth. Not overly reliant on additives, but nice wheat and yeast character, probably with some kind of citrus peel. Decent stuff.
Blimey. Not what I’d expect from Urawa tough guys. Very fruity, and very sour too! Touch of mint there. Can’t get the sakekasu but it’s a nice beer.
