Can. So this is Kirin's entry into the beer with alcohol removed category. Second one in Japan. Similar to the Asahi, it looks like beer. Nice, tall head, clear, golden color. Nose is much better. Quite hoppy, in fact. Also decent malt. From the nose, I can't tell it's no alcohol. Flavor is fruity, worty, citrus hops, bread. Here the malt starts to get just a little weird. nice hops. Light bitterness. Aftertaste is kind of worty. Crisp and a bit light. Not bad. Probably slightly better than the Asahi Zero, but they are quite different.
