2008 version. Surprisingly aroma, lighter malt, citrus and pine. Rather light malt, cereals, bittering hops, Bitter finish with little malt flavor. Very light yellow color. Rather thin in malt. Decently bitter, but not much flavor at all. Better than their regular beers but too thin. 7/2/6/2/10 2011 version had very nice, fresh, green hops, with citrus, grass, juicy and tasty. A big surprise.

Medium white head. Yellow body with light carbonation. Light harmonic malty fruity aroma with rubbery notes. Dry dense straw and malt aroma with powerful medicinal hoppy background. Dry medicinal hoppy aftertaste. Clean, clear mouthfeel. Quite interesting, and not at all bad. (0.35l can from a grocery store in Tokyo.)
