Pleasant aroma. The spices are subtler than Hoegarten, making for a nice drink.

And as such, it tastes like it. Poured with large head (think I may have pour a bit more aggresively), cloudy medium dark amber\/red. Didn&#8217;t detect any really distinctive odor. Definite sweet, dangerously close to a malt liquor. Nicely controlled bitter finish, but honestly there was little that appealed to me. Not one of my faves, 2 out 4 rice fume burping monkeys (long after finishing, after taking a shower even,\u00c2\u00a0rice aftertaste).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>More of the Hitachino Nest beers available imported, I had the white ale a couple days ago.
