Tao: pours piss gold with white head. Aroma is grains and stuff. Taste is light and lagery. Doesn't even have the refreshing riciness of most Japanese crappy lager. Bleh.

From old tasting notes. Light yellow gold color. Bubbly white head. Faint malt nose is grainy and sweet. Light zesty malt flavor upfront. A wisp of dry hops in finish. Not good, but OK for a light beer.

12 oz bottle at Benihana in Dulles/Sterling, VA. Clear golden straw yellow with off-white head. Aromas of corn, wheat, malt. Same on the taste. Light body with a dry finish. Decent with some Japanese cuisine.

Quite foul. Stingy fake grain taste. Some chemicals. Tangy weird aftertaste. Bottle at Asian karaoke place in Washington’s so-called chinatown.

Pours a pale straw from a bottle, aroma of banana, corn, flavor is sweet corn. Served nice and cold, so I feel like I’m rating it higher because of that. Not a great beer.

Clear pale golden color with a thin and fizzy white head that evaporates quickly. Spotty lacing on the glass. Aroma of grain and corn. Light-bodied with flavors of grainy malt and slight earthy hops. The finish a little metallic with a grainy aftertaste. Below average overall.
