This Premium lager pours a deep orange gold color from a 12oz can. Medium sized white foamy head. Aroma is fruity and sweet, touch of pears and peaches. A medium bodied lager. Malts are fruity and sweet. Hops are slightly spicy. It’s a lager, but it has some flavor and body to it. Not your standard lager. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.

Pours a crystal clear golden color with a white head. Aroma is nice pilsner malts, honey, some vanilla, a floral hint, and peppery hops. Flavor is honey, floral, and a bitter peppery finish.

Small white head. Deepish yellow body with some carbonation. Light acidic apple aroma with grassy notes. Acidic chalky apple-like taste with grainy notes. Dry straw aftertaste. Somewhat watery. Its OK, but Im not fond of this lager style. (0.35l can.)

Pours a light copper color with slightly off-white head. Very nice aroma - pears, green apples. Flavor is fruity, slightly sweet, bitter, vinious and buttery. Very full bodied for a lager. A little bit too fizzy though. Very good for this style.

Dinking canned Japanese Macro while watching "America’s Got Talent", I’ve reached a new low. I’m not sure how I’ve missed this one, I hauled a can back to the states for Beerguy101 and MWSF to try so now I guess it is my turn. A medium to deep golden color, foamy eggshell white head. A sweet, slight fruit scent with a bit of cotton candy thrown in. Sweet flavor, flower nectar with a hint of cardamom. A short sweet follow. Certainly a step above the average macroswill most convenience stores offer but still not on par with most Japanese micros.

Can thanks to rayg1. Pours a light gold with a thick frothy white head. The aroma and taste are basically a strong malt. A ton of corn and some sweetness, but if I’m gonna have a lager I prefer this type which stresses a more natural malt flavor. Not bad at all.

Pours a nice golden colour with a medium fairly lasting bubbly white head. Aroma of malt and hops, slightly fruity, bit sourish. Flavour is malty with a little hoppiness. Short bitterish finish. Pretty ok beer. Thank you for the can Tori.
