Can from Trader Joe’s. Better than the regular sapporo. Flavor is cleaner. Good carbonation.

jimmay (705) - Waterloo, Ontario, CANADA - AUG 20, 2011
22 oz can from Publix. Pours golden in colour, with large white head. Large carbonation. Taste and aroma are slightly sweet, mild hops. Not really that different than regular Sapporo.

onceblind (1349) - Denver, Colorado, USA - AUG 1, 2011
Golden clear, no head. Smells of wheat bread and lager malts. Tasted like caramel infused lager malt, with some light butter as well. Light and sweet, with a little more maltiness and body opposed to a typical macro.

taphandle (991) - Texas, USA - JUN 7, 2011
Yellow, good head. Decent amount of malt taste with some hops to it. I wasn’t expecting it to be this good at all.

slimchill (936) - Austin, Texas, USA - JUN 4, 2011
Bottle. Pours completely clear copper with a thin but solid white head and active carbonation. Aroma is a bit adjuncty but has some nice hay/straw qualities. Highly carbonated yet still flat on the tongue. Bland, very light mal tnotes. Finishes dry and spicy.

nike (500) - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 28, 2011
Overall not a bad tasting beer. I did like the 22oz can. It’s an above average beer, drinkable and enjoyable. Doesn’t have a "bite" to it, which is what many probably expect from a beer.

Pours gold into a shaker. Bright white head with medium retention recedes to hug rim. Sweet bread aromas. Crisp then flat with bread and hay from front to back.

A little carbonation, almost no lace, nice gold color. Semi-yawn, but nice can :).
