From last year's advent calendar. Inky dark brown high viscosity, small head. Nose of sweet dark sugar, light soy, bready goodness. Very sweet on the tongue, smooth with hints of refined spirits. Syrupy cognac and vanilla. Very tasty, definitely on the dessert-sweet side of the force.

Drunk watching season 4 of Stranger Things and thinking of Max. Light gold with mild haze, amazing nose of caramel, apricot, and heady sweet flowers. The flavor is smooth dry goodness with hints of grain, warm pine forest, and stone fruit/citrus hop notes. Awesome Higgins x YK!

Half liter can procured at a supermarket in Hsinchu, drunk at the hotel after Italian dinner with Lagrein and Baladin. Light amber with mild haze, tall short-lived head. Nose of faint yuzu, grain, yes i think coriander. Flavor is a bit thin, mild hops, a bit grainy with a hint of citrus. It's alright, needs a bit more body/flavor and hops. Have i tried a craft beer from Taiwan? Might be the first so that's something!

Drunk at Enoteca Piccola in Hsinchu. Amber hazy, mildly spicy herbal flavor, full and lightly sweet mouthfeel. Nice complexity, well balanced, excellent!

Beer purchased in a Supermarket in Hsinchu, drunk at the hotel with buckwheat seaweed crisps. Mostly clear on first pour, decent head with moderate holding power for a Wit. Good aroma of citrus, mild grain, sharp. Flavor has big yuzu citrus and mild but present coriander. No fancy overtones from the yeast. Not overly complex but meeting the basic style.

Purchased in Hsinchu at a Supermarket, drunk in the hotel room after wagyu beef yakiniku at the Sheraton. Hazy yellow-orange, moderate head, nose of yuzu and mandarine with juicy grain aftertaste. The flavor is super citrusy. I mean, really bright pomelo notes, i really wouldn't be surprised to find fruit in here but I can't read Japanese or Chinese. Interesting citrus fruit bomb!

Bottle drunk re-watching Stranger Things 3 to prepare for the final season. Medium brown, small head that returns when swirling. Bananas, bready yeast, caramel biscuit nose. Very smooth rich flavor. Not too alcoholic hot, not too sweet, nice hop balance. That's an excellent barrel aging right there!

Bottle brought by Daniel, thanks! Lightly hazy amber gold, moderate lacy head. Malty, bready nose like a freshly baked loaf of sweet punching bread. Sweet but not syrupy on the tongue, tasty and failure free but not super complex. Pretty one dimensional in that regard. Moderate earthy hops that blend in. Pretty good.
