No Side IPA
Kizakura Sake Brewing Co., Ltd.

 

The very very first sip of the beer (still in the can) tasted very intensively fruity but unfortunately having poured it into a glass it just fell apart: the citruses and the tropical fruits turned into something nauseatingly sweet and annoyingly bitter. Feels like they have obviously used hop pellets instead of real hops and this is what happened after an intensive hopping. Also the first decent smell began to feel more and more foul. Why did this happen?
I am quite disappointed at this point, because the beers I had from this brewery had been okay (even if they weren’t outstanding, they were somehow acceptable) but this one goes a bit below that standard, even though an IPA makes me set my standards high... Unfortunately, it’s just a mediocre beer.
Athough it might be called a “no sider”, it will never score a decent goal.
