Tap at Komachi. Deep orange-gold with reddish notes, hazy, with a low head. Nose is mango, pineapple, creamy, coconut. Juicy pineapple more than mango, lots of coconut as well, finish is slightly rough, and the sweetness from the lactose is a little unnerving.

Tap at CBL 2018, someone shared this with me and I was like “Don’t you men Marca?” They answered “no, Rokko” so I was kind of surprised but happy to try it. Rokko mango milkshake is a lactose infused brew. There’s definite coconut notes and lactose and while the finish is dry I don’t get much ipa about it. Pretty solid and a cut above most Rokko brews. 3.6

Tap at Kyoto Ji-Biiru Matsuri 2018. Told them they should re-consider the name. Very sweet and malty and seems only half-fermented. Check out the attenuation. Some burnt rubber phenols in the nose, light oak aroma, chocolate, caramel, esters. Very think body. This is not ready yet.

Tap at Kyoto Ji-Biiru Matsuri 2018. Zesty, citrus nose, grapefruit mostly, very juicy and lightly tropical. Nice hops, the malt plays backing fiddle and stays out of the way. Just a bit too bitter for the style but enjoyable.

One of two Rokkos so far that goes beyond good. Really nice little guy (and I mean little glass, because this is Japan).

Maybe the best cherry blossom ale I've had... This is the pinkish one on the left, of course
