Bright saturated orange, ample foam and sharp clarity. Looks the part. Aroma is yeast forward, peppery, hay, doughy.
Light acidic fruit, phenolic pepper, light hop bitterness. Well carbed initially, ebbs over time. Overall it’s ok, not above average.

An international collaboration in which I'm not sure Nippon (or a related brewer) is the owner of this recipe. Produced at Brewery de Graal, Belgium; so that is a start for authenticity. Label also says "Designed by Far Yeast Brewing. Tokyo"
So if you can figure out who really is that pun name, you are a better man than me.
Bought at the Red & White wine boutique in Chicago.
All said... an enjoyable ale. Balanced.
Looks are average, a quickly fading head on a murky body. Smells are mostly malt, fruity with some hard to discern spices. Tastes are balanced, but not exceptional. The yeast at the bottom of this bottle should stay there. A refreshing Feel, but could have more bubbles. Enjoyed with soup and pizza.
I really can't give a brewer review as I'm not sure who it is. If you want to know about Nippon Beer, 70% of their business is importing to Japan. http://www.nipponbeer.jp/cms/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/nb_company_profile.pdf
Looking like the Kagua line, this orange label -- reversed in white type-- is nearly impossible to read.
