11/09/2007: Sapporo Reserve is crisp and clean with a pale maltiness that is balanced by a mild grassy bitterness. The aroma is a bit grainy. The beer is medium-light and has a transparent golden color, moderate carbonation, and a foamy and somewhat diminishing off-white head. This beer is refreshing and not too bad. It is better than expected and would probably go well with spicy food since it would help to cleanse the palate.

16 fl. oz. can from The Party Source in Bellevue, Kentucky. Rating #217 for this beer.

Can. Much better if the two sapporo beers tryed next to each other. Still a very light flavored beer. Not awful.

This was acually a pleasant surprise. Didn’t get a good look at it, since I drank it from the can, but the aroma was pretty non descript and macro like. Kind of sweet, little floral hop, kind of dusty smelling. The taste was floral, with peat and a hint of sweet malt. Maybe I’m crazy but it faintly reminded me of a single malt scotch. Faintly. Overall, not bad. I may revisit this one later.

Magnum Can: Golden color with a light fizz. The nose is mild with some malt and a little thin hops. Grassy would be a stretch. Crisp flavor and a decent body for sapporo. Better than their usual but I don’t know if reserve would be an appropriate descriptor.

Can. Pours light gold/yellow with a 3 finger stark white head that leaves spotty lacing. The nose is grassy hops and malt. The taste is sweet malt, grain, grassy and metallic hops. Lighter mouthfeel. Meh, not great but refreshing.

Med. Gold with thick white pillowy head. Aroma is not bad, light malt sweetness, not too grainy, very light grassy hop. Flanour is sweet malt, grassy hop again. Not bad.

Pours deep golden color with a white head. Very sweet malty aroma. Light flavor, sweet malt and bread. Was good for washing down spicy sushi but probably not much else.

22 oz can pours brilliant golden with a decent white head and a sweet malty aroma. Flavor is light hop bitterness and sweet malt. Light and easy to drink. I think I like the regular version better.
