Can. Why do I bother? Well, for research sake. Light, toasty, slightly bready nutty amber malt nose, a touch of caramel. Nose is thin and slightly tinny. Medium amber-orange, clear. Rather lame lacy head. Fruity, orange and apple, some caramel and toast. Light sweetness, prickly hop finish. Taste is inoffensive, better than the weak nose. Body is light and a bit watery. Not good but I could drink it if I had to. No real lager character, as expected.

Yesterday I did some konbini drinking and this crafty happoshu while cheap at 160¥ or so was not very good with a rough flavor and just slight sweet caramel malt. Nothing really amber or lager like to it. Not worth trying.
