Beering in Mind YouTube Channel Beer Review #298 -- Umenishiki Aromatic Ale
Umenishiki Aromatic Ale is a sweet, yeasty Belgian (style) strong ale which has a lot less complexity and rich flavors than it should.
You can watch my YouTube review by clicking HERE.
Beering in Mind YouTube Channel Beer Review #297 -- Umenishiki Bock
Umenishiki Bock is dark sweet brew with plenty of sweet roastiness and some light licorice notes. But it seems more like a porter than a true bock.

Beering in Mind YouTube Channel Beer Review #295 -- Umenishiki Pilsner
Umenishiki Pilsner has a pleasant Czech hop aroma but is sort of lacking in flavor. Not bad, but not the best.

Beering in Mind YouTube Channel Beer Review #285 -- St-Louis Premium Kriek
St-Louis Premium Kriek shows off a lot of fruit (25% of ingredients), but is more like cough drops than a lambic.

(plus a look at "The Overstory," a fairly recent work of Eco Fiction).
Beering in Mind YouTube Channel Beer Review #284 -- St-Louis Premium Framboise
St-Louis Premium Framboise definitely features the fruit over the lambic character.

Beering in Mind YouTube Channel Beer Review #282 -- Echigo のんびり ふんわり 白ビール / Weizen For A Relaxing Time
Echigo のんびり ふんわり 白ビール / Weizen For A Relaxing Time. This beer trades on its looks, or rather the looks of the cute branding characters, much more than its on own beer character.
