Even with this many ingredients in the beer, they all seemed to balance each other out. It is quite floral to the nose when you first take a sip but after it is in your mouth you can taste the sansho and the sweetness from the rice koji. Both flavors of sansho and rice are quite hard to explain but the sansho is a kind of a grassier version of the pink peppercorn, and rice would be that smell of the steam when you cook rice.
