22oz can poured into a shaker. Pours a clear dark gold with minimal head. Aroma is mostly grains with some very light herbal hops and a hint of muscat grapes. Taste is light bitter. Mostly grains with some woody herbal hops. Medium bodied with a relatively thin texture. Lively carbonation and a decently long finish. Overall, not bad. Nothing super special but drinkable. Meh.

Big fucking canned @ home picked up at Argonaut for $2.99. Pours a clear burnt orange appearance with a fluffy, off white head. Somewhat herbal, woody hoppy, toasted malty aroma. There’s some hops in the flavor but there’s a dull, woody, sweet malty, lightly fruity, light white grape flavor. Not as good as the regular Sapporo.

Not bad. A little taste of grain and crisp finish. A little bitterness even, though tinged with chemical. Don’t remember seeing this while I lived in Japan. Big weird Sapporo can.

Pours gold into a shaker. Bright white head with medium retention recedes to hug rim. Sweet bread aromas. Crisp then flat with bread and hay from front to back.

At a friend’s party. Pours extremely pale with a white head. Aroma is very weak. Taste is extremely thin. In general, I don’t have a problem with Japanese macro-lagers, but maybe I had my hopes too high for this. Somehow this beer wasn’t watery but was thin never the less. Of course it was perfectly drinkable with no offensive notes to speak of, but it really did not have much in the way of taste either.

I don’t think there’s a difference between this and the regular stuff. Goes well with a Japanese meal, otherwise, isn’t very good.

Pours with a largish, foamy, off-white head covering a deep yellow body. Aroma is a bit of wheat and maybe a little corn, with a fruity note at the end. Ultra thin mouthfeel. A little bit spicy and metallicy. There is also an odd apple taste to the beer. Interesting Japanese lager.

Aroma of light grass and noticeable malt. Orange tinged gold coor with a white head that collapsed, but left some lacing. Medium+ mouthfeel; low carbonation; sort of a warm malt foundation, and there is definitely some decent pilsener type hop in the finish. If it was not quite so malty, and had a bit more hop, I’d think it actually was a pilsener. Way better than Bud.
