Beer Is Good – Hitachino Nest Saison Du Japon

Saisons seem to have a reputation of being funky, literally. I was a little worried when I pour it and could detect some of that skunky odor that I often find in pilsners, but oddly enough when I actually drank it did not detect the funk. Pours a cloudy light yellow with fairly strong head. Strong citrus and fruit aroma, the fruitiness making an almost li hing note. A lot like a Heffe, but not as heavy on wheat. There’s a sweet, but the middle and end is dry. Crispness from strong carbonation.

A pleasant beer, although with the rice koji and yuzu it technically wouldn’t be a beer.

3 out 4 Japon monkeys.
