Asahi Super Dry

Brewed by Asahi Breweries
Style: Pale Lager
Tokyo, Japan

Light yellow body with a small white head. Lots of grainy cereal in the aroma. The flavor is lightly to moderately sweet and very lightly bitter. Slightly dry finish. Light to medium body and water texture. Lively carbonation. Crisp enough to make it drinkable, but overall fairly boring.

12 oz bottle poured into lager glass- poured transparent golden yellow, very thin white head. Aroma of faint grain. Hits the mouth with a thin body, nothing really distinguishable, dry finish. Disappointing.

Not bad. Bought as part of ’Asian Selection’ . One of the better two (along with Singha). Nice and dry, crisp and refreshing. Good with nibbles.

50 cL from 7-Eleven in Hong Kong, thanks Boris. Pours clear yellow with a diminished white head. Grassy aroma. Flavour is slight sweet malty, only vague bitter in the finish. Soft and slight boring flavour. Ends mild bitter and with a mild citric note.

I really didn’t know what to expect out this beer. I did enjoy the “dryness”. Otherwise it wasn’t that out of the ordinary for a pale lager.

Wow, pretty rough. Out for some Asian food, limited beer options, and I figure I’ll go with something crisp and dry to battle the spice. Just another anonymous pale lager, with a fairly lively body as its only notable characteristic. Almost prompts the question as to whether it’s even really beer.

I simply adore this drink. What more could a man want from a glass of beer? Nicy and dry, with a hint of bitterness. The one beer to drink with food. It’s been around for a long time, though be aware that its taste varies, depending on where it is brewed.
