Iron Maiden's Trooper Sun and Steel is a 4.8% double-fermented pilsner-style lager, infused with authentic Japanese saké yeast from the award-winning Okunomatsu saké brewery in Japan.
The result is a crisp and refreshing pilsner-style lager with a flash of honey and fruit.

lattina 50 cl, schiuma bianca fine evanescente, colore giallo smorto limpido, al naso cereali mais, in bocca cereali e un amaro particolare (forse il Saké), corpo scarno, watery, carbonazione moderata, amaro moderato, secca nel finale. Il Saké non l’ho mai bevuto quindi non so giudicare. A me sembra solo una Pilsner anonima. c. Iper Varese 03.08.20

Not a lot to write home about here. Some sake and some barley. Cloying aftertaste. Golden pour. Can that fell on the street from a box of beer I bought. Had to pour it and drink quick. Glad it was this can and not one of the other better beers I bought.

16.9 oz can. Aroma is sweet malt, lightly grassy. Pours crystal clear light golden with a one finger white head with decent retention. Taste is moderately sweet with faint bitterness. Kind of Euro pale-lagerish. Fine carbonation but a little watery. Not bad but a little uninteresting for a craft pilsener.

16oz can. Filtered tan body. Foamy white head. Has some macro tendencies in aroma. Tastes like a Cream Ale at times with some English malt tone among the sweet corny taste. I suppose it could be the sake yeast as well....that is not a tone I am familiar with. Drinkable, clean. Not a lot going on.
