Can kindly shared by Cuso. Thin body, big foaming, but quickly disappearing head, also rather low carbonation. Med-high sweetness, candyish, caramelly, pretty plain feeling. Some of it is probably oxidation. Light bitterness. Quite watery, neutral. It would feel quite average among macros, but plain bad among minis. I am not sure what the intent with rice was here, but feels like it went sideways.

Can from a friend, many thanks. Unclear amber golden color with huge persistent white head. Aroma of rice and grain, yeast, oxidation. Taste is sweet with rice, grain, yeast, oxidation, fruity esters, light spicy notes. OK.

Very light body, low moderate bitterness, a bit weak. Boring training wheel pilsner

Tap at Yokohama Beer Fest. Another beer featuring this table rice. Light, pale yellow (from the rice). Ricy nose, biscuit, some tang. Light, grainy, rice, oily, malty. Crisp and refreshing. Not bad.
