hopscotch (7522) - Vero Beach, Florida, USA - AUG 17, 2003
Clear, light golden lager. No head. Not much in the way of aroma or flavor. Light-bodied with a watery mouthfeel and fizzy carbonation.Very dry, crisp, clean finish. Goes well with sushi, otherwise, don't bother.

imdownthepub (7461) - Banbury, Oxfordshire, ENGLAND - JAN 29, 2007
Bottled, pasteurised, 500ml. Yellow gold with fizzed white head. Extra marks for not being ovecarbonated, this is a dry, thinnish but with the benefits of being malty with no adjuncts, one of the better pale lagers. Beats the rice brewers hands down.

A Mes rate: Bottle in a church.
Ok it’s a converted church that is now a venue. The church was amazing. The beer wasn’t. Metallic coated cardboard box with a bit of the cereal still left in aaaaaaand... yeah I’m done.

chriso (7063) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - JAN 18, 2004
Golden yellow colour. It is dry and, no doubt OK as a thirst quencher on a hot summer's day. Unfortuantely it is a rather cold winter day here. Alternatively, I suspect, intended as a "designer" beer for poseurs who value style over substance.The rice and hop adjuncts introduce an underlying tang that compromises the cleanness. Otherwise, quite thin and boring stuff. Mine was produced in the Czech Republic & this seems to be the only Asahi beer imported into the UK. Bottled.

Lubiere (6979) - Ottawa, Ontario, CANADA - MAY 7, 2007
A gold lager with a thick white head. Aroma of crisp malts and rice, a bit of burned corn. In mouth, a light sweet malt, with clean finish, not offensive, and thirst quenching. Bottle from singles bin at LCBO.

JoeMcPhee (6961) - Toronto, ON, Ontario, CANADA - JUL 8, 2004
Very pale golden colour with a quickly disappearing white head. Malty and grassy/floral aroma. A slight sweetness on the front with a clean finish. Very typical.
