Bottle. Ack. Awful. Dull, flavorless macro taste, with a huge amount of carbonation. Reminds me quite a bit of soda water, sort of a mineralesque taste. Not much going on, clear yellow, big white head, little aroma. Couldnt finish.

A light yellow beer with only a little head. It has the aroma of brewing cereal - on wich it is brewed. The flavor is that of brewing cereal and is flat and metallic - it ends of in a slight bitterness.

I'll admit that I bought this \"Japanese\" beer (brewed \"under supervision\" in the Czech Rep.) only to get a higher score on the \"most countries\" rating. However I was compelled to drink it tonight (had planned to wait a bit) in order to lose the foul aftertaste of the EKU 28 I had sampled earlier. This beer is definitely contrary to the foul eisbock: It's probably the driest beer I've ever tasted. Refreshing, but not something I'd buy again (ref. Norwegian prices on imported beer), unless I should happen to visit Japan. Rerate: Actually, I DID have it again without visiting Japan: It was a nice accompaniment with a meal in a Japanese garden / restaurant in Denmark.
