500 ml can from 7-11. I think I have had one of these before. It's an all-malt lager using hops from Mr. Sato's fields in Kamifurano, Hokkaido. An interesting idea, though beers have not been all that exciting in the past. This is the 5th in the series. It does have a pretty bright hop nose, herbal, grassy, lemony. It is supposedly a Japanese varietal called Golden Star. Underneath and supporting is a crackery pilsner malt base. Starts out on the right foot. Probably not dry hopped, but definitely late hopped for aroma. Clear, medium golden with a medium head. Again, the hop flavor is nice, herbal, lemony, and the malt is rather light and crackery like a saltine. Not a bad industrial lager. Probably won't get more, but no complaints. They do make the hops the center piece.
