Japanese craft beer #3. Pronounced burnt flavors and hoppiness. Reminiscent of Sierra Nevada's stout.

Paul Robinson: A local bottle shop here has a few shelves of Japanese craft beers. I picked up one to try, and will be going back for more.
Michael Kelley: There is one in particular that I see in MD. It has an owl on it? Never tried it though.
Paul Robinson: Hitachino Nest beers from Kiuchi brewery. That's what I have - picked up their Weizen ale and will try later this weekend or next week :-)

Just like they say, roasty, toasty, espresso-like black ale.
