#329 Kiuchi - Hitachino Nest Red Rice

This is an Ale brewed with red rice cultured in ancient Japan.

This beer has an earth grainy taste, like fresh malt, there is also an unfamiliar sharp aroma. The color is a pale orange with some haze. The head pours thick with moderate retention.

There is a fruity flavor to this beer, like fresh peach or apple. There is a tangy flavor similar to a sour beer, but far less, more like a hint of white wine. There is no clear hop flavor or malt characteristic. The mouthfeel is a medium with high carbonation. The finish is light and fruity.

This is a really tasty beer, I am doing a poor job describing the flavors since they are not normal beer tastes. The fruit flavor is really like and enjoyable.
