Pale golden beer with white head. Pretty neutral with some grassy notes. Rice and a little of cardboard. Just a bit too watery.

csaso (483) - Missouri, USA - OCT 24, 2011
Bottle - small foamy head, light straw color, smooth dry light malt flavor - OK for a Japanese beer

RobertDale (969) - Lansing, Kansas, USA - OCT 24, 2011
Sample at KC Beerfest 10-22. Comes pale yellow with small white head. Mild aroma of grain and malt. Taste is light malt, watery. Not much going on here.

seymour (782) - Saint Louis, Missouri, USA - OCT 21, 2011
Tasted from bottle into chilled pint glass at a Japanese restaurant. Poured a clear straw color with rocky white head which quickly dissipated, no lace. Typical mass-produced adjunct lager aromas and flavors. At least they admit to the heavy use of corn. Not sure what "Super Dry" refers to; it finishes as crisp and dry as any lager. Fine with rich, spicy Japanese food, but nothing special.

culchiem (1014) - Berlin, GERMANY - OCT 19, 2011
Bottle. Fairly standard larger, probably one of the best I have had from Asia so far. Not much else to say

MrBeerFanatic (548) - jamestown, New York, USA - OCT 18, 2011
Pour of pale or light amber. Aromas of grain, light hops, and hay. Flavor of hay and left over stale hops that leads to a slight skunkyness. Lightly bitter, clean, and crisp. Your everyday lager.

Pours clear pale golden colour with a large head. Aroma of clove, corn, grass and some light malts. Flavour of butter, dry hay, corn and malts. Light-bodied and straightforward.

EdKing (936) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - OCT 1, 2011
Bottle at Apollo Cinema, Piccadilly. Colour is amber but with a bit of a copper tinge. Nose is barely discernable, getting virtually nothing other than a metallic, minerally smell. Taste is grainy malt, carbonated fizz with a slight dry bite. Dullest beer I’ve had in a long time.

lusikka (2533) - Tampere, FINLAND - SEP 30, 2011
330 ml bottle.BBE 1.6.2012.
Pours a pale yellow colour with a small, thick, white head. Aroma of corn with some weak maltiness. Weak flavour of corn, dry malts and dry bitter hops. Light bodied, thin mouthfeel and a light finish with weak malts and hops. Pretty much low on everything but still unoffensive. Refreshing as well.
