350 yen can from Asahiya. Maybe as I’d just had the Echigo Red Ale I picked up on different things. 5.5% the color was virtually identical a nice clear amber though the head was off-white. The aroma was malty with a hint of skunky funk over some spiciness. A bit rougher malt character than Echigo with hints of grass/hay which makes me think they either used some pilsner malt or an adjunct. Much more hop forward with the malts taking a back seat, I think this is more my speed...

Can. Black with a tan head that never quite gives up. Floral aroma with roasted malt, chocolate, molasses. Gently mouthfilling with little sweetness and a dry but barely bitter finish. Chocolate, mild roast, dark sugars, floral notes. Insubstantial but rather elegant.

Can from Ales and Lagers, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a clear medium amber with a frothy white head. The aroma is weak malt and hops. The flavour is high medium bitter, hoppy, with some malt on the palate and some lingering bitterness in the finish. It was fine to drink, but I don’t like is as much as some of my fellow raters.

Can from Ales and Lagers, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a clear light straw colour with a thin round white head. The aroma is weak banana leading to a malty, smooth, slightly crisp flavour. Not as nice as I expected it might be, but not a classic either.
