I had this on tap at Craftheads in Shibuya.
The beer comes in a glowing orange color.
The aroma has some of orange, sweet juicy citrus. Smells definitely of Citra.
The flavor has very refreshing orange citrus, then a very pithy flavor hits, very light malt biscuit malt middle, and a drying pithy end finish. The middle pithy flavor is quite different, though the beer surely hides its ABV quite well. Very hoppy, good amount of bitterness, great beer.

Bottle bought in Japan (Shinshu Osake Mura), poured into a goblet.
A: Darker tan/orange color. Cloudy and not much of a head.
S: Yum.. strong grapefruit and citrus smells, hops and sweet malts are present but the overwhelming grapefruit smell is outstanding.
T: Starts off with slight sweet citrus which quickly transitions to a wallop of a grapefruit, lemon and hop punch. Malts are there to keep the punch in check but can barely handle it. The finish is once again an awesome combination of grapefruit and citrus.
M: Starts of sticky sweet and the finish is quite dry.
O: Best Japanese IPA I have had so far. The grapefruit deliciousness really puts this up there with some of the best in the States as well! Try it!
