A few of the brews i've sampled of late:
Kona Brewery continues to impress with their line of handcrafted Hawaiian beers. This is the Wailua Weizen brew, with Passion Fruit flavour. I've had this one before, back when it started as a limited release. I can understand why this became so popular and they brought it back as part of their regular lineup. Fruity but not overpowering. Very good for a summer afternoon.
Every year Kirin Brewery (Japan) releases an autumn brew called "Akiaji" ( 秋味 ). It's pretty good for what it is. Smooth, not too hoppy, not as sweet as some Japanese beers.
Best drunk very cold. 6% alcohol.
Three German brews i picked up at our local import shop. All from Max Leibinger, Ravensburg. The Seeweisse German Wheat Ale was particularly good. The Leibinger "Edel Spezial" was a bit too hoppy for my taste but i know people who would really enjoy it. And the Zeppelin Ale was good but not particularly noteworthy. The label however is fantastic!
Symian is: sipping and savoring a rare day off.
