Bottle kindly shared by Milos, many thanks. Pale golden color with small white head. Corn, malt, diacetyl in taste and aroma. Bad.

Can. I congratulate tha Japanese Asahi division. They truly succeeded in creating a true industrial macro eurobeer. Tasteless with only hints of corn, sweetish extracty syrup. Drinkable at least.

Pale golden coloured body with a touch of a ribbony white head. Aroma of rice and lemons with very little else. Light-bodied; Sharp flavour of rice, light malt, alcohol and a hint of lemons with very little else and no bitterness nor harsh flavours. Aftertaste shows some more of the malt, a hint of the grass and lemons and some very light sweet notes - not much else though. Overall, a surprisingly nice and refreshing beer with not much signs of the alcohol, even given the 5+% abv! I sampled this 50 cL can purchased from City’Super in Harbour City, Kowloon, Hong Kong on 03-July-2014 for HK$10,50 sampled in my hotel room here in Wan Chai, Hong Kong on 04-July-2014.

lekki kanał i czosnek w zapachu. kolor słomkowy, piana przeciętna. w smaku lekka słodycz, posmak apteki (talk i bandaże) oraz lekka, ale dość nieprzyjemna goryczka.

350ml can from vending machine at Tokyo, 250Y. Somewhat better of his little sister "aqua blue", this is not beer exactly, this is happoshu. i think malt content is 50%, while blue version is 25%. Looks more yellow, nicer head and more balanced taste but still extremely watery.

Tried it again in Hong Kong, 65 cl can, 5.5% around 150 HK$. Pours light gold color with a big bubbly head, and actually looks like a normal beer. Aroma is grainy, salty with leaves and sugar, unmalted stuff, alcohol. Taste mild bitter, dusty finish. Not as bad as the first impression, but still happoshu.

Pours clear golden with a large, foamy white head. Aroma was swet malt. Thin, bubbly mouth. Taste is metallic at first, then fading into a very light malt. Crisp, and refreshing, but completely lacking in the taste arena. Meh.

Canned. Pale golden with brief head. Rice aroma with strong notes of petrol. Thin and sweetish, but reasonably clean. Herbal finish without bitterness.
