Pours dark amber with a thin head which disperses rather quickly. From an English pint glass. Rich in taste and full of flavour, lively and can tell has %. Lacking a bit of charm or charisma

(Bottle) Not quite sure how old this bottle was, but here it goes. Pours a dark golden color without much head. Malty aroma included sweet caramel notes. Taste includes biscuits, grain, toffee and some grass. Light fruity notes as well. Average mouthfeel and above average carbonation. A pretty good beer.

Bottle at Chris´s, october 07. Fruity aroma, some superior alcohol notes. Shinny deep golden colo with almost no head. Strong malty aroma, some fruity notes. A bit clumsy though. Medium to full mouthfeel. Warming but a bit over the top and clumsy. OK strong lager.

2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 MesandSim (7108) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - OCT 30, 2007
A Mes rate: Bottle at Chris O’s Fukito tasting. Blonde / brown with a light white head. Slight hops and sweet malt but SERIOUSLY overpowered by vegetable soup. The most vegetal beer I have had. It’s all leaves and cabbage and green stuff. Paper and corn notes do not help in the slightest. Pretty poor.
2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 GeneralGao (3515) - Iowa City, Iowa, USA - OCT 19, 2007
16 oz bottle. Poured a clear medium orange color. Head was off white and reduced quickly to a thin ring. Aroma was mostly fruity, specifically plum and pineapple. There was also husky grain and an occasional whiff of adhesive tape. Dry on the tongue, but fruity, with pineapple dominating. Light malty caramel and mild hop bitterness round this one out. Way overrated at the 73rd percentile.
