Had on tap during the Gion Festival a few years ago, basically the ice helped render the fizzy gold lager even more tasteless. It was incredibly refreshing on a hot summer night but didn’t exactly leave a lasting impression beyond weird I am drinking a beer on ice. From the reviews it looks like I was the only one to have this on draft...

Can: Poured a golden color with thin white head. Aroma is sweet grass. Taste is a bit dirty with sweet water and grain.

Can. Deep gold with a fine, thin head.malty, caramel aroma, creamy, not so bad. Very sweet, malty, flavor, some corn, caramel, milk. Too sweet, for sure, but a bit of grassy hop bitterness in the finish. With ice: gets a huge, ultra fine, foamy head. Interesting. Aroma changes too, more metallic, flightly fruity. Body becomes thinner, the flavor less sweet. Not terrible at all, just don’t get the concept really.
