Can. Creamy, wheaty nose, biscuits, honey, light citrus. Ok nose but nothing original. Clear medium gold with a high, fine head. sweet and creamy flavor, lemon, orange, wheat biscuits. Somewhat too sweet for me. Light bitterness in the finish. Overall not terrible but kind of lame. Their ales never are as good as the lagers.

Can. Deep, hazy gold with a thick head. Rich, creamy malt nose, biscuits, light floral and spicy hops, with a bit of doughy yeast. Biscuity malt flavor, touch of toast and caramel, dough, with bitter, spicy hops. Smooth, full, creamy body. Good one. Closest thing to a real Bavarian Kellerbier made by a major in Japan.

Bottle. Clear gold sporting a proper white head. Aroma and taste of malts (duh), grains, bread and a little bit of lemons. Low to moderate bitterness. Medium carbonation. A mediocre Pale Lager done right: inoffensive and süffig yet not that dull and revolting. Maybe Japan‘s best macro Pale Lager.

Can. Bright, clear gold with a medium head. Aroma is slightly lemony, estery, a bit doughy, with biscuits. Flavor is sweet and fruity, with citrus hops and light honey. Light hop bitterness in the finish. Ok. Kinda boring but not bad.

Can. Another shot at an all-malt major. Herbal, citrus hop nose, a bit grassy, with biscuity malt in the back. Clear pale gold with a medium head. Sweet and lemony, quite fruity actually, biscuit and toast. Sweet, lemony finish feels more like an ale, but they do not say anywhere. Not terrible, but a little too sweet.
