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.

Yellowish color with some white head. Taste has a touch of maltiness with some hops to balance it. Aromas of malts, hops. Typical lager nothing great.

Yellow in color with a mediocre white head. Aromas of grain, corn and grass. Flavors of the same with a slight hoppiness. A little weak all around.

Can. Pours hazy yellow, white head. Aroma is malt, ketchup. Flavor is the same. This is pretty bad. Worse than regular Sapporo. Also, this was brewed in Canadialand. The Sapporo actually brewed in Japan tastes better.

Pours a slightly cloudy golden color with enough head. It’s clean, yet cloudy, a marvel. Obviously from Japan’s oldest brewery since the claimed all malt beverage has hops in it too. Smells like crisp malt and light hops. Surprisingly good. Is this a lager? Ususally lagers suck because they take so much time, effort, and marketing sell, I mean produce. A pleasant revival for the lager style of beer. AB and SABMiller need pay attention.
