Craft saké brewed with Citra hops added The purple color is said to be a polyphenol property of the hops. The color of the 稻 and agave 稻 and pop were similar, but I think this one is a little darker. The aroma is almost entirely grape and citrus from the pop. I think it's more like a craft beer made from rice than a craft saké. Well, it's non-foamed, after all. Taste is definitely more hoppy than saké and pop. The base is definitely the sweetness of the rice, but the grapeiness and the astringency from the hops have a stronger impact. It's good, but not great. It's hard to say how to rate it because it depends on your taste. For those who like hops, one advantage of this beer is that it can be paired with a wider range of foods than craft beers.
