Multiple paper cups of this at some insane grocery store with the famous Kyoto man himself, Mark. Pours a clear golden hue with a medium white head. Toast, bready, semi-sweet. Soft perfume. Decent.

Had this at Haneda. Golden, big head, has pale malt and mellow hop on the nose, similar palate. Good, balanced, sweetish macrobrew.

Tap, very cold. Yellow gold with a white head. Aroma is grainy, but itβs a bit bready without being immensely sweet. Has enough body to stand up to Japanese pub grub without seeming too thin but really doesnβt do much of itself. Some bitterness at the end. OK.

Very light grain on the nose. Tastes of cardboard and grass. Slightly sweet. Tastes like a typical Japanese macro swill but more expensive. Green bottle skunkiness as it warms. Not good. --- Beer merged from original tick of Heartland on 10 Jul 2015 at 20:27 - Score: 2

Bottle at restaurant, Osaka. Golden color, small steady white head. Sweet malty, a bit cardboardish aroma. Light-bodied to medium-bodied. A harsh malty flavor. A bit papery taste with light fruity note. Quite typical macro beer.
