You gotta love the silver can. This was a really impressive beer. It had a nice solid taste and went down smooth, everything you could ask from a beer.

Typical import lager aroma. Light gold and a head held together similar to Foster’s. For a chintzy beer, this ain’t all that bad. Why? Because although it’s palate is unchallenging, it’s finish is non-cloying, and very agreeable. They did a good job of advertising this as a draught-- it is definitely smooth. I would love to try this with a habanero-laced, Japanese noodle and shrimp dish.

Nifty can presentation, but fails miserably when it comes to the beer itself. Slightly better than BudMillerCoors, but not much.

not to complicated a beer, light fruity nose, light hoppy flavour, and not much on the palate. it reminde me of Asahi Super dry a hell of a lot.

A foul curse visited upon the earth.

a pretty good and refreshing beer. pretty flavorful for a lager.

This beer melds very well with sushi. It had adequate potency to wash the raw fish off your tongue.

Awesome can. Nothing too special here, but definitely above average. Delayed pineapple aftertaste makes this interesting (if its not supposed to have that taste, they should add it! I thought I was nuts until others with me tasted it as well). Being that this is Japanese, I think a good analogy is the Toyota Camry--not too flashy, slightly overpriced, but won’t let you down.

Not too terrible, starts out kind of rough, but it grows on you. I was more impressed by the can.
