3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20Pours slightly hazy golden with a shortlived offwhite head. Aroma is sweet caramel, malty, piny and fruity. Crisp bitter mouthfeel. Flavor is hoppy, slightly roasted, caramel, grapefruit and some biscuits. Very nice smooth palate. Finish is longlived bitter hoppy, similar to Punk IPA but less. Still the aftertaste stays for a long while.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle from Asahiya. Mild tropical fruit and some tingly citrus in the nose, with a little harsh tobacco like punches. Somewhat hazy deep straw color, small head. Light grass up front / hopping (and harshness) intensifies in mid palate -- it’s almost peppery / very mild hop traces in final. Thin-medium body, slightly scratchy and rough on the throat. Really tastes like a rye beer. Fruit notes are minimal. Okay.
