Sapporo Reserve

Brewed by Sapporo Breweries
Style: Premium Lager
Tokyo, Japan

Pour is golden yellow fizzy with expected short lived white head...smell is wet dog and grass...taste is general bland skunk...SURPRISE

Light straw gold, big puffy white head. Nose sweet, some cardboard, bit vegetable-ish. Pretty basic flavor, generic premium lager, sweet and malty, grassy, some vague hops in the end. Reasonably decent for what it is.

musty aroma of old wood, dried grass, and wet cardboard. Transparent yellow color with solid sheet of white froth. Has a yeasty character to the flavor that makes it somewhat interesting..a bit watery though. Straw & grass flavors predominate...with a touch of herbal citrus in the background. I once had a "bad" bottle of this stuff that tasted like a lager version of beatrix..This bottle here though was not quite beatrix quality..however, it still is quite nice for what it is.

Pours straw fold with a voluminous whit head. Not much aroma to speak of, a bit of grassiness maybe. Flavor is actually pretty decent, good balance between malt and hops and no typical macro articificial-ness. This is a pleasant drink.

Bottle. Bright golden, eggshell head. The smell isn’t so "reserved", it’s just grainy and not very pleasant. Bland malty flavor with hints of wheat. Normally here’s the part where I tell some elaborate story of how I happened upon my latest crappy Asian lager on my quest for 100, but nope, nothing to see here, I just bought it at Central Market. Sapporo’s website says "Drink in the world". I suppose their corporate plans don’t include interplanetary expansion.

Clear yellow, with a decent-sized white head. Light aroma of honey, malt. This tasted surprisingly inoffensive, with honey dominating the profile, and only hints of corn and a slight metallic bite marring the flavor.

From a 22 oz. can. Dark gold with a large white head. Aroma of carrots and celery with some white bread. The taste is A full vegetable with some celery and leaf lettuce. This is fairly inoffensive, I guess.

Pours a medium yellow with a head that quickly dissipates to nothing. Initial grain aromas, nothing offensive. Some hop flavor with a generic malt sweetness in the background. Decent on its own, but it would be alot better with some spicy Asian food. 22oz can perfect tallboy size. Brewed in Canada "IMported" to US.
