Straight from the can so no comments on the looks. Aroma of grains, malts and some citrus fruits. Taste of malts and grains with almost no fruitiness at all. Dry finish. Moderate bitterness. Strong carbonation. This is far from the best of both worlds but quite the disappointment.

My can is blue vice red and clocks in at 5.0% not 5.5%. Medium golden with a fuzzy white head. Sweet with lingering fake sweetener. Medium bodied. Bland with an annoying finish.

04.08.2019, 0,35l can @ hotel room in Tokyo:
Nice fizzy-creamy mediumlasting head, clear straw colored. Aroma is slightly dry sour-ish mineraly, paper, hay, weeds, minerals, dried grain, sour grass, cereal. Taste is slightly dry sour-ish grainy, hay, minerals, paper, weeds, dried grain, sour grass, cardboard, bark, cereal. Medium bitterness, slightly harsh sour-ish mineraly mouthfeel, fizzy carbonation. Meh!

Conbini can. Wtf? Pilsner and ale? Rather faint nose, fruity esters seem to come from ale yeast, biscuit malt, lightly toasted. Pale orange amber, clear. Flavor is exceedingly dull. Cardboard, grains, light fruit. Almost nothing there. Dry, stale finish is quite bitter too. Tastes near nothing.
