Can. Has a white bubbly head that is gone in two seconds. Looks amber, super clear, too clear for me. Aroma is almost OK, usual raw beans and grass coming from daisan biiru is not too strong, almost edging nice. Taste is smooth and not offensive. Not sure how much of it is natural - if anything at all. Some sweet corn notes and something synthetic also there. Chemical - but not unpalatable. Overall almost drinkable, nothing there to savour about but at least I could down this. Barely.

Can, served in a footed pilsner glass. It is a deep gold color & ultra-carbonated with a fizzy white head that disappears almost as quickly as it forms. The nose is sugary but more like artificial sweeteners than real sugar, cardboard & some vegetal flavors. Not truly bad but not appetizing. Fairly light bodied with a scratchy carbonation. The taste isn’t quite as bad as I feared from other reviews - light sugary chemical sweeteners, sweet cloying finish just bland and boring and lacking in any positive flavors - it seems more like something made in a lab than a brewery.

Can. Orange-gold color with a frothy head. Rather unoffensive nose of light malt and maybe a hop. Corny, DMS-like raunchy flavor, cardboard. Light and slightly oily body. Crap.
