Tested all of the Asahi yeast-series beers the same evening, thanks to Kjetil at NØ. The most interesting aspect with these four beers experiment is the fact that they are all made identical. The only difference is the type of yeast. The beer itself is a commercial lager and not very interesting itself. You have to dive deep inside the glass (and yourself) to search for greater variations. All of them are golden pale with a small head. This one is the least interesting beer with almost no malt flavour and very little hops. You may sense some bitterness.

Can. Tested all of the Asahi yeast-series beers the same evening, and started with this one. This one, as the three other, are pale golden with a small white head. Very short malty aroma with some hops. The flavor is light malty with some hops. It has a thin crips body and a long, vague bitterness in the finish. (060301)
