Bottle...finally a flavorful Japanese beer! This was delightful, well-carbonated, main flavors of orange (tasted a lot like Orangina) stood out. It went well with the Asian dish I had. I will be trying the other Hitachino products.

A light springy aroma, I think this is a truly great white ale. Some orange notes and spices, it has a pleasant vibrant flavor and aftertaste to it. Quite nice.

Bottle pours pale golden with a big white head that stays pretty well. Aromas of some corriander, orange, and grass. Flavor is much more yeasty with also a good dose of corriander and some slight citrus at the finish. Somewhat fizzy on the palate but light and refreshing.

The Japanese taking a stab at one of my beloved styles...and doing so well. Pours a little gold for my liking with no head and little bubbles. Aroma of grass and yeast. Taste of yeast, lemon and a crisp mouthfeel (a little wet though). Could pick up some coriander in the finish as well.

Aroma is wheat, a little sweet malt, some corriander, and a little hops. Pours a cloudy yellow/orange. Flavor is all of the characteristics of the aroma with a nice hoppy citrus finish. Not my favorite style but a decent beer nonetheless.

Bottle. Small white fizzy head that mostly diminished. Spar lacing. Milky cloudy orange colour. Ginger, spice, coriander, citrus and some fruity notes as well. Light bodied with a soft carbonation. Flavour was light sweet with some acidic. Spicy sweet finish.

(Bottle 33 cl) Very unclear, pale golden with a dense, white head. Spicy, citrusy nose. Rather light-bodied with tart, fresh citrus notes. The finish is dry. Very fresh and pleasant. 090507
