Bottle from Lawson. Nice pils like aroma with a good grassy, lemon pepper nose. Taste is more of the same. Nice and crisp with a fair amount of pepper for a major. Good balance, but the hops are showcased fairly well. Nice clean finish that is dry and crisp. --- Beer merged from original tick of Grand Kirin on 31 Aug 2015 at 19:51 - Score: 6

Clear golden color, small steady white head. Sweet malty, perfumic aroma. Medium-bodied. Malty with some alcohol. Light bitterness. Clean and certainly decent pale lager from Kirin.

ładny, chmielowy, ziołowy zapach. dość porządna piana, złoty, przejrzysty kolor. w smaku pełne, ale z wyraźną ziołową, łodygową goryczką. jedno z fajniejszych piw szeroko dostępnych w japonii

Bottle - From bottle - Pale malts and some mild earthy grassy hops. Clear gold with small white head. Big dark malt and bitterness with some fruit esters. Very odd, almost a medicinal liquorice flavor .

Bottle. Nice wide mouth opening. "Dip Hop" is apparently a kind of dry hopping. Certainly smells like it. Nicely hopped aroma, good citrus and grass nose, light bready malt. Pretty nice. Deep, clear gold with a tall foamy head. Nicely hopped beer, highly attenutated, but nice bready malts. Good hop flavor and huge bitterness for a major. Really nice. For a major. Light body, but full, great hops. Wow. Respectable shit!
