Draft @ Beer Belly, Osaka, Japan: Hazy, copper, light head and lacing. Nose of light malt, some citrus and sweet husk. The flavor is light, some hops and a sweet bitter finish, plenty of hops in the tail. Some light fruit malts. Not very cohesive but a full mouthfeel.

UPDATED: OCT 2, 2007 @ GJBF 2007. Gold with a white head. Aroma is slightly hoppy, some toasty malts, and light floral notes. Flavor is similar, with some fruit tones thrown in. Light hop finish. Thought this was pretty solid.

Golden color. A touch of toasted malt. Moderate malty mouth with toasted malts, but nothing too special. Refreshing moderately bitter finish. Kind of like a toasted lager, but with a ale yeast and a bit heavier.
