Bottle. Alc. 4.7% Clear medium yellow color with average fizzy fair lacing mostly lasting white head. Aroma is light to moderate malty, toasted. Flavor is light to moderate sweet and bitter with a average duration .... zzzzz boring. Body is light to medium, texture is watery, carbonation is soft.

A golden beer with an OK head. The aroma is very faintly malty. The flavor is slightly malt sweet with a nice bitterness - nice balance. A standard pilsener - OK for a japanese beer.
