Jan 1, 2010 Actually meant to buy the stout on this visit but ended up with the ale. A nice, moderately bitter beer. The texture and finish was very nice. I could hang out with a few of these for an evening.

Dec 31, 2009 12oz, pours hazy golden-amber with white head. Nose of stale hops, grass and cheese but nice cedar coming through big time. Flavors gave a nice cedar quality to this, spicy and grassy hop notes. Lively feel to it and fun to drink. Cedar plus beer rules!

Dec 31, 2009 Big bottle, shared with Parksy. Pours a hazy deep amber gold with a lively off-white head that retains beautifully. Very interesting aroma of black pepper, ginger, and wood. Flavours live up to the aroma: TONS of peppercorn, sweetish floral ginger, and a dry woody vegetal finish. The underlying malts are honeyish and sweet. Another fascinating brew from Kiuchi!

Nov 17, 2009 14th August 2008. Hazy red amber beer. Initially a little malty but then blooms to a rich woody taste that I assume is the cedar casks gift to this beer. Not sweet and vanilla like oak but aromatic and strong. Dry woody finish. Off the beaten track!

Nov 17, 2009 (bottle - 330 ml) Hazy amber color with a fizzy white head and lots of floaties. Aroma is very light with slightly sweet hints. Can’t really get a lot of hop aroma. Flavor is sweet and malty at the beginning with a mildly bitter hop middle. The cedar notes come through at the end. Bitterness lingers for a bit.

Oct 19, 2009 2009 Bottle in trade...it was a trade binge week and I forget who sent it, but thanks mate!!- Pours a murky orange with a medium off white head...aroma is dry hoppy, woody, grainy caramel malt...flavour is similar, massive cedar that adds a totally different wood element than anything else, pine pitch, little bit of spice...interesting stuff...
