150ml bottle served in a WABL sample glass. 2024 vintage. I think it's 24.9.23 bottled on and 29.9.22 best by dates. I think it's 11%. Gifted to me by @shigg85.

Pours a slightly murky honey-amber with a small head. Last bits of the pour seemed to have some visible sediment go with it. Smell is bright, floral, grass and lemon, candied orange, marshmallow.

Taste is just a hint of Belgian golden, honeysuckle and grain, bark wood and hops bitterness. Very tannic.

Mouthfeel is light, clean, a little chalky. Very good, very interesting.

This beer is brewed every year on only one day, the ninth of September. My bottle made on September 9th, 2004 had an expiration date of September 8th, 2028.

A - Beautiful cloudy amber body.
S - Powerful malty, wine and mead aroma.
T - Explosion of mead, dried apriocots, very dry.
M - Slightly hot, yet smooth. Light body for such big flavor
D - Cannot believe that this is 11%, it goes to down too smoothly. Excellent integration.

Thank you Mr. Yahata of Beer Belly (Osaka) for giving me this bottle of amazing beer. You and your restaraunt rule!
