500ml can. Clear amber with a 2cm white head. 3+ Robust grainy and bready aroma with some grass, caramel, hints of stewed fruit. Sweetish and (ironically) quite malty with the promised richness before decent grassy bitterness. Bold and tasty for a Japanese macro.

355ml can. Some weird ingredients here: syrup, seasoning, acidifier, flavouring, fiber, etc… Pours clear dark gold with a tall white head. Aroma is rice, malt, faint hops. Taste is light to medium sweet, malt, rice. Light bitter finish. Light to medium body. Strangely enough, it tastes like an ordinary (alcoholic) lager from one of the big Japanese breweries.

Bottiglia. Il gusto al naso viene attratto dal metallico La finezza olfattiva è appena percepibile e la maniera in cui permane è corta. Il manto birroso superiore è caratterizzato da una schiuma che resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido è di consistenza limpida. Il colore è giallo ambrato. Il corpo è medio. L'amaro è medio. La forza gustativa è appena percepibile e la persistenza è corta. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di facile beva. Il retrogusto è leggero, veloce, sfuggente, appena percepibile, delicato. In bocca non arriva nessun aroma su cui riferire, metallico escluso.

Once again, another beer I thought I rated before. Hold on there, it didn't happen. I have a 12 oz bottle bought at a supermarket not far away. Drinking out of a glass from Cowtown, I uncap the bottle and pour. A medium gold color with a steadily replenished skim of snow white foam. The scent carries lots of grain and malt. The taste is better than I remember and also improves on the average for the style. Malt, grain certainly, citrus, straw and more sweetness than the usual pale lager. Nice beer to drink after a substantial walk on an unseasonably warm afternoon.
