Can, bb 9/26. Gold, a cm of white head doesn't last. Vague, sweet malty aroma. A bit of body with sweet, somewhat tired pale malt. Moderate apple and earthy flavours as the bitterness creeps up a little.

First actual beer in a couple weeks. What's it even supposed to be?

From old tasting notes. Hazy yellow gold color. Big bubbly white head. Sweet malt aroma. Crisp dry malt flavor. Zippy and refreshing.

50 cl bottle from Lawson, Omotesando, nice winter design, contains rice, corn, starch. Clear dark gold to light amber color, fluffy white head, good persistence. Aroma light grainy, light sirupy with apple peel. Taste is flat, light metallic bitterness. Nothing going on, really.

2007-’08 edition. Clear golden with a small fizzy head and very active carbonation. Slightly sweet malts, though the aroma is is severly lacking. Smooth, but niticeable carbonation. Slightly bitter, a little malt, metallic, and corn. Dry finish. Bland.

Can, 2005-2006 edition
Pale yellow, good creamy white head. Arom a is malty and kind of sweet yeasty. Light-bodied, watery. Some grass hoppyness, bitterness in the finish. Only a picture in the can reminds about the winter. There is possibly beer in this, it has just watered down.

A dark yellow beer with a light white head. The aroma is sweet hoppy while the flavor is sweet with strong notes of rice.
