Bottle from John’s Market Place in PDX--Poured a bubbly straw yellow-golden body with a wimpy white head. Aroma is a blend of malts, rice, and mild spicy hops. Not too skunky, but a little nonetheless. Sharp carbonic mouthfeel that finishes quite bitterly and super dry. Nice Canadian beer--Ha!

Nice looking can: The color of the can and beer match perfectly. Aroma is a mild mix of malt and hops. Flavor is crisp, but sharp astringency with a touch of a metallic bite, not much though. Palate is dry and with a tinge of hops. I don’t like getting buzzed with little or no flavor...

I thought I would follow Garrett Olivers advise and try some light lagers while I grill up some seafood. Pours gold with a tall white head. I’m not sure I remember having Sapporo before, but this wasn’t all that bad, crisp, soft hops, non-skunked from being in the can. Not all that bad, although I have to say that is a pretty heavy can.

Very light yeast aroma. Clear golden color with a small white head. Tangy and sweet flavor in the beginning that gradually grow stronger to the finish.

Pours a golden pale body with a white head. Pale with a poor malt and a skunky bitter rice flavor. Pass on this one.

Pours with a largish, foamy, off-white head covering a deep yellow body. Aroma is a bit of wheat and maybe a little corn, with a fruity note at the end. Ultra thin mouthfeel. A little bit spicy and metallicy. There is also an odd apple taste to the beer. Interesting Japanese lager.

Beer. Nothing more nor less. Did pour with a big foamy frothy head and a bit of lace. Golden amber color. Nose was beery. Oddly mouthfilling but still watery. Hops are there but there’s a play between the bitterness and neutral sweetness. Beer burps. Serviceable. Almost a session beer if you don’t want anything too bold. Got this one at the big local supermarket.
