5.5/10
All things have been said before on comparable macro lagers, I guess. This one is relatively sweet, with some bitterness. Not crisp at all, nor much hoppyness. Drinkable, especially on Tahiti. It's a magical place.

The youngest beer in Hinano’s range apparently, made for the 100th anniversary of the Tahiti brewery in 2014. Thanks to tderoeck for sharing the can. Mousy, egg-white, thick but unstable head, lightly hazy ‘old gold’ robe. Rather weird aroma: bath foam and shampoo, sweet cereals, canned corn, rubber. Sweetish-grainy onset, very slick, quite strong carb, metallic aspects, thin cereally body with that weird soapiness still lingering, ending a tad plastic- and iron-like with no hoppiness to speak of. Even worse than the regular Hinano I had years ago, with that shampoo-like element making it even more ‘artificial’ than it already is - needless to say there is nothing rich nor subtle about it.

19/X/19 - 33cl can from a trade, shared @ Wim VL's Stoofvlees Tasting, BB: 16/X/19 - (2019-1755) Thanks to Rubin77 for sharing the trade!
Clear orange blond beer, big fizzy aery white head, unstable, falls down quickly. Aroma: sweet and malty, bit sugary impression, some caramel, soapy, floral touch. MF: soft carbon, medium to light body. Taste: sweet start, metallic, sugary corn, pretty bad. Aftertaste: more corn, sweet, hint of vanilla, pretty metallic finish. Not a very good beer.

Bottle, many thanks to my parents! Clear golden color with white head. Aroma is corn, sweet stuff, honey, a bit fruity. Taste is the same. Not horrible.
