Dull gold colour. Grainy aroma. Taste is grainy - a little heavy handed in that regard actually. Watery underpinning. Next week I’ll have forgotten I drank this.

From IslandHaole: ugghhh. Dude, why did you send this one out to Logan’s? Poured a golden yellow with a medium white head. Very weak all around. Light malt, some rice, some beer flavoring. I’ve had better.

Thanks to IslandHaole for this one. Pours pale gold with aroma of slight hopcit, honey, and thiols. Tastes hopcity, with some finsihing honey sweetness. Light, with a slightly dry finish.

Typical Japanese Macrolager, clear Gold with white head. Very weak malt scent, slightly grassy. Quite fizzy, DME & adjuncts, a bit sweet in the middle with a bittersweet follow. I’m not really a big Lager fan, especially on a sub-freezing Winter night. I’ll have to try it again in the Summer.
