Bottle at home bought at Cask. Pours light golden colour with small white bubbly head. Aroma is fruity, berries, bit of cream, something herbal, maybe the soba, nutty, bit bubblegum. Taste is nice and crisp, much more of the soba, savoury, little bit of orange citrus bitterness at the finish. Some toffee sweetness too. Nice and grainy. Very drinkable, and quite unusual. Pretty nice though.
Copper with an off-white head. Malty, sweet, biscuit profile. Some fruity esters. Medium bodied. Sweeter finish. It wasn't really what I was expecting but it was quite disappointing.
On tap. Pours a slightly hazy amber with a small, creamy, long lasting, off white head that laces. Sweet aroma of roasted malt, grain, caramel and fruit. Sweet flavour of caramel malt, grain, fruit and red berries with almost no bitterness. Light body with a watery texture and soft carbonation. A little weird but ok.
355ml bottle, take-out from Birmingham Beer Bash 2015. One of the lucky few that weren’t cracked open by Simon F on the train back home. Pours hazy amber with thin white head. Grainy nondescript aroma. Taste is fluffy wheat, grain, malt, soft texture.. pleasant but hard to distinguish much else.
draft at 2014 fall Keyaki in the Ezo beer sampler. Nice aromas of grain, cereal, and buckwheat honey. Sweet on the palate. Tastes of cinnamon and grain like a liquid granola bar. Light tasting with a watery mouthfeel. Nice smooth finish.

Fresh, modest beer with a soft taste of grain and malt. Has some fruits as well.
Draught @ Beer Temple. Slightly unclear orange golden color, small white to off-white head that leaves fair lacing. Smell and taste malts, sweet grains, straw. Weak body, average to medium carbonation. Meh.
Bottle: Pours slightly hazed dark gold/amber with a small, off-white head. Sweet malt, butterscotch aroma. Lemon, honey, wheat taste. Very light and mild....sweet. Smooth and malty. Very pleasant.
Bomber bought @ bierkompass.de. Pours clear amberish golden with a small frothy goldenish white head that quickly dissipates while leaving a small trace on the glass. Smell is sweet and malty with sweet dark bread, biscuits, golden syrup, banana bread, cola nut, hay, toffee,m lemon zest and hints of laundry detergent. Taste is sweet, tiny bitter and slightly malty with crackers, sweet white bread, toffee, cola nut, lemon zest, oatmeal cookies, toasted cereal, hay and hints of lemon juice, laundry detergent and soy milk. Mouthfeel is round, slightly sticky sweet, strangely chemical clogging and medium bodied. Finish is sweet and tiny malty with sweet bread, biscuits, golden syrup, toasted cereal, oatmeal cookies, cola nut and lemon zest. I hated this and drained poured almost the entire bomber. Nothing wrong or infected, just doesn’t taste good at all.
