DuffMan (2719), the land of bitumen, beef & beer, Alberta, Canada Jan 15, 2009 Super can, with sushi take out. Actually, mega can is more appropriate. Even when the beer is poured this thing is still got some weight to it! Anyway, I don’t see the "reserve" status here. Apple-fruit accented grainy aroma. Lagery, papery, clean. It does the job as a palate cleanser with the sushi but there really isn’t much to go on about. SuperDave70 (1157), Beautiful Sunny Mesa, Arizona, USA Dec 12, 2008 Golden pour with a fizzy head. Pretty standard macro lager, with the addition of a hint of citrus. I did not get any skunkiness, which may be because I poured from a can. Just a beer. kpresley77 (133), Jackson, Georgia, USA Nov 28, 2008 22oz. can pours clear golden with thick white head that quickly disapates. Aroma is a little bit of malt. First taste is watery malt and not much else. Carbonation is high, flavor is low. I often drink regular sapporo because it is cheap but this was not worth the extra $$. daknole (2802), Plantation, Florida, USA Nov 26, 2008 Tasting at Brewtopia. Reserve?? What??? Piss poor. Yellow beer. White head. Aromas of corn, malt, slight hops. Nasty flavor. I don’t get it. PREMIUM? HELL NO. BeerBelcher (930), Columbus, Ohio, USA Nov 26, 2008 This was definitely the best of a recent tour of Asian beers I took (all without leaving Wisconsin), but that is still not saying all that much. This beer pours a darker color than regular Sapporo, which is something that you might expect from a beer called "reserve." This beer offers some up nice maltiness, which came to me as a baking bread aroma and flavor. More than I expected, but hardly terric. alobar (1006), Harleysville, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 20, 2008 Dark golden color with carbonation. Tall white head. Nil aroma-some hops and bread. Not much of a beer. Bradrcr (778), Renton, Washington, USA Oct 26, 2008 9/20/08 From 660ml can, Cans, Tacoma, Wa. Aroma is strangely a blend on noble hop flora and fresh baked whole grain bread. Appearance is clear gold with a low white head. Flavor is sour pils malt forward with a strong noble hop background and medium bittering. Mouthfeel is very low bodied with a medium/high carb texture. Overall, not very easy drinking, but more character than expected. ericandersnavy (1039), crossroads, Texas, USA Oct 25, 2008 bottle picked up by girlfriend. poured a clear gold with a whit head. aroma of malt, lemon, and some skunkiness. flavor of malt and feint lemon. light body and high carb. i had higher expectations for this one.
