| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 29, 2009 Thanks TimE for opening this! Very phenolic initially, but really seems to open up after being in my glass and walking down the streets of Tokyo with it. A lot of hop bitterness, but medium to low hop aroma, possibly from some aging. Dryish. Nice.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Mar 24, 2009 12 oz. bottle from Tmoney99. Pours a deep amber color with a medium beige head. The aroma has moderately sweet caramel malt goodness with an equally impressive floral and citrus hop presence. The flavor is well balanced with a caramel/toffee malt backbone and floral, earthy, and light citrus hops coming together nicely. The bitterness lingers well into the finish in a good way. This was a surprise because it had no hype, but is definitely a very solid beer. sersdf (1000), chicago, Illinois, USA

Whether or not it was deliberate im not sure but it seemed to be lacking carbonation, but i like that in a beer.
