Tin in Japanese restaurant. A tiny bit of malt in the aroma. A tiny bit of hop in the finish. Thin body, Thin mouthfeel. Overwhelmed by plain white rice.

Your typical japanese lager, although it at least has a faint taste of grain. I hesitate to say grain? Drank in a can.

A watered-down version of Finnish lager, basically... (This beer rating was imported from FB and unfortunately lacks any further comments.)

Golden coloured body with a thin white head. Aroma of cardboard, skunk, funk, grass and not much else pleasant. Light pungent flavour of malt, sugar, cardboard and a touch of yeast. Aftertaste is not much better with a lot of pale malt flavours, some cardboard, a little funk, a touch of sugars and the absolute smallest amount of hops noticeable. Overall, not such a great beer - pretty much standard for the course and nothing to get excited over. I sampled this 350 mL can purchased from City!Super Market at Two IFC in Hong Kong, China on 30-June-2011 for HK$9.50 (US$1.25) [Best By 31-December-2011] sampled at home on this side of the world in Washington on 15-July-2011.

Bottled. Yellowish golden colour, small white head. Aroma is rice, malts, some slight grassy and floral notes. Flavour is the same along with some mild grains. Quite thin bodied and watery palate.

On a whim that big silver can beckoned. Pours a pale straw yellow with a big fluffy head that falls quickly, but sticks a fair amount of sticky lace on the sides. Smells lightly of grainy malts, maybe some earthy floral hops. Uninspiring nose puts it mildly. Taste is grainy and slightly sweet, hints of tartness in there somehow with an astringent finish. Crisp carbonation, thin body and a watery mouthfeel. Well that’s not all that tasty. Its a thin bodied macro lager with almost no redeeming qualities, one and done for this one.

Can 330ml (PBF, BB 06/2011)
Golden color, small white head. Grainy and grassy aroma. Light to medium-bodied. A bit glueish, sweet malty and a bit apple fruity flavor. Not much winter here.
