The full title of this beer is "oishii mizu de tsukutta BEERU" in Japanese, which means "beer made from delicious water". The label says they use water from deep down in the Ohkotsk Sea. Fascinating. Because it's not really salty, I'm assuming they are desalinating it before use..still, it's a little salty, so I wonder...
Ingredients are: malt and hops (and the yummy water)
That said, it's a creamy orange color, a bit hazy. Sea-foamy bubbles and great lacing. Smell is malty and sweet.
The taste is strangly unique, which I attribute to that exciting sea water. It's medium-bodied, well-malted, but there's a certain tanginess that comes through, which I want to call yuzu, or grapefuit perhaps. It adds an element of lightness to the ample malts and excellent hops.
Very smooth drinking, this one. I wish I lived closer to Abashiri.
