Quite a dry lager, drunken on occasion at sushi bars as a change from Sapporo. Straw yellow with a decent but short lived head, it’s got the faintest of aromas, sweet malt. Not much flavor, but leaves a clean finish. Definitely doesn’t get in the way of the food.

Taste matched the color...very watery and bland, but went fine withand washed down every piece of sushi we had

This is the first Asian beer I have had, and it sort of reminded me of Teriyaki sauce. A sort of sweet taste to it, different kind of beer. Not too bad though, good international flavour.

Bottled, pasteurised. Wheat yellow with carbonated head. No not the worst beer I have had, in fact there is a sweet malt background and even an attempt at some hoppiness. Poor but not vile.

Smooth, grainy, diminishing head, watery finish. Very light on the hops. Slightly sweet.

Color is a clear yellow with a medium foamy head with divets and leaves tiny patches of lace. Smells faintly of sweet malt grain and a hop, just barely. Taste is thinned out malt with a hint of sweetness and a super light hop. Mostly watered down and empty light to medium body with no hold or body. Not so good, not so bad either.

average.. watery

clean with a dry finish

Had a can of this in Kyoto, Japan. Pale yellow with a white head. Crisp taste and a light body.

I had this at an oriental restuarant. It had a bitter finish that was too much for my taste.
