The described gentle aroma, combined with yamahai brewing and acidity of 1.9, points to a full, savory body in the jun quadrant. SMV +9 and the very dry finish keep the perceived sweetness low despite the mild sweetness noted.

Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.

About

Autumn: As dusk falls, the sun sets over the Sea of Japan and its light turns Mount Chokai a beautiful orange. Autumn is a season rich in ingredients, from aromatic mushrooms to fatty Pacific saury (sanma). The aroma is gentle, with a pleasant sweetness and soft acidity, and the finish has been brought to a distinctly dry character. Enjoy it across a wide range of temperatures, from chilled to warmed (kan).
