Rather than writing up individual reviews for these beers, we’ve come up with a page of beers for our recent trip to Beer Labo Jokun – which is a brewpub located in Yuzawa, Niigata. As these are draught beers, there is no guarantee that they will be on tap if and when you go there.

Jokun Sake Hazy Matsunoi : Mini Review
Appearance : Dark golden colour with a plump, frothy white head on top. Left streaks down the glass.
Aroma : Dry yet hoppy. Full on juicy tropical aroma – mango and pineapple. Citrus notes as warms up – lemons and oranges.
Body : Similar to the nose, citrus and tropical. Slight sake hints in the background, but hoppy delight. BEST OF THE BUNCH.
