Streetlight Yuzumeki : Appearance
Poured out a slightly hazy golden colour with a large frothy and bubbly head that collapsed quickly to a few bubbles around the edge of the glass.
Streetlight Yuzumeki : Aroma
Light pilsner malt sweetness with a mellowed yuzu aroma that tries to cut through, but does not dominate the bouquet of the beer. Slightly chemical nose to it as the beer warms up later on in drinking.
Streetlight Yuzumeki : Taste
Slight astringent nature to the beer with the yuzu cutting through more in the body than in the nose. Low hop flavour to the beer, as well as low hop bitterness. The helles base was more in the background and could just be noticed as the beer warms up.
Streetlight Yuzumeki : The Bottom Line
It’s an ok beer, nothing really exciting or worth working yourself up for.
