Like most of the beer that I have had in Japan this is a sweet and fruity beer. If that is what you like, though, this is an excellent beer. I have read that this is brewed by a sake brewer, and that may be all you need to describe the taste. For someone who appreciates sake this is a very interesting beer, and definately worth trying.

a - beautiful bright yellow body with small white head.
s - pineapple and sake aroma.
t - creamy pineapple with some sake. Far to sweet. Little if any bitterness.
M - Smooth and creamy.
D - The high alcohol is not readily apparent, which is good. Being that this is from a sake brewer, i am not surprised that notes of sake were perceptible.
