Bought another brew from Japas, one year later... but from the same store in Holland Michigan. So why can't I find this brewer in Chicago?

As a pastry stout, Taiyaki is only slightly above average. The AIS style is pretty demanding with subtleties that include barrel-aging and tricked-up ABV. Taiyaki lacks most of those subtleties. It is just a pastry stout without much discernible chocolate. Basically, Taiyaki pushes few buttons.

However it is decent and I bought a 4-pack, so I am not done reviewing Taiyaki.

As for Japas, this is only my second; and my micro-review a year ago was truncated because their website was not too developed. But in late 2022, I see they keep adding to their portfolio. But their biggest Overall Hugs comes from their three check-offs on diversity: women brewers of Japanese descent brewing in Brazil. All three of which puts Japas in a special place and deserving of these OA Hugs. Kanpai ! or Saude' ! as suits this diverse enterprise.
