Biggish white head does not last. Pale yellow body. Faint malt aroma. Dry grainy taste with grassy hop notes. Exceptionally clean palate. Dry, papery aftertaste. Men of science worked hard to remove all taste from this beer, and they did a great job. (0.334l bottle.)

Pours clear golden with a large, foamy white head. Aroma was swet malt. Thin, bubbly mouth. Taste is metallic at first, then fading into a very light malt. Crisp, and refreshing, but completely lacking in the taste arena. Meh.

Medium light brown head quickly shrinks into a thin film. Deep dark red translucent body with carbonation. Sweet roasty licorice aroma with perfumy earthy notes. Taste is sweetish licorice with perfumy roasty notes. Quite good. Not really entirely Bavarian, but so what. (0.334l bottle.)

Small white head. Deepish yellow body with some carbonation. Light acidic apple aroma with grassy notes. Acidic chalky apple-like taste with grainy notes. Dry straw aftertaste. Somewhat watery. It`s OK, but I`m not fond of this lager style. (0.35l can.)

Medium white coarse head. Greenish yellow body with carbonation. Acidic rubbery aroma with notes of grain. Taste is sweetish grainy rubber with a thin mouthfeel. Perfume notes. Dry chalky aftertaste. I think I prefer beer with style. (0.35l can.)

Can. Pours deep brown with a creamy tan head. Aroma is roasted malts, chocolate, and molasses. Body is watery. Flavor of roasted coffee, sweet malt, cocoa, and somewhat smokey. FInish is a little bitter. Definitly want more body in this brew. Not too bad, though.

Pours golden with a large fizzy white head. Aroma was corn and maybe a bit of malt. Body is rather fizzy. Flavor is muted, but some malt, and hops. It’s just another macro. There are much better Japanese macros out there.

Pours a clear golden orange with a large fizzy white head. Aroma is yeast and corn and nothing. Dominated by the nothing. Body is thin and bubbly. Tastes like corn, rice, and maybe the smallest amount of malt. Finishes with a light bitterness...maybe from some hops. No thanks.

Poured deep ruby/brown with a nice tan head. Aroma is roasted malts, whiskey, caramel, and chocolate. Body is a little thin for my tastes. Deeply roasted flavor. Sweet, coffee, bitter sweet chocolate, and a bit of alcohol though the 8% is pretty well hidden. the whiskey is noticeable in the finish along with a nice bitter end. I’m impressed, and would drink this again.

Poures a crystal clear gold with a medium white head. Aroma is malt, sweet fruitines, a bit sour, and the smallest hint of hops. Body is watery and thin. Flavor is just another mass produced lager. Malt, and a bit sweet. Thats about it. I’d take this over there regular swill, but its nothing to get excited about.
