Bottle pour from Whole Foods, Sherman Oaks. Clear, bright yellow, nice sparkle, thin head with good retention and nice soapy lacing. Aroma is strong rice, mild sweet corn, cardboard. Taste follows aroma. Frothy texture, lively carbonation and finish as taste. Good strength. About as interesting as a rice lager can be. Off the top of my head, is this my favorite rice lager? Who knows because that is not information I would keep in my head. On to Cincinnati...

Can. Gold, white head. Meek aroma of light bread and rice. And very empty upon a swig. Clean but empty. There is a little lightly earthy bitterness at the end. One of those "quite high quality but why bother?" Japanese lagers.

Light brown-amber. Bright. Medium head. Clean, with brown sugar notes, it's a decent macro dark lager.
