run of the mill stuff. Sweet aroma and flavour, average carboation. Goes down smoothly, but nothing exceptional.

Clear golden, corn and rice smells. Strong rice taste, similar to Bud. This lost in a side by side tasting with Asahi Hon-Nama.

Japanese beer cans seem to be covered in bloody writing. The faact that I can’t understand most of it just helps to piss me off more. I can see the ABV and Aurora Borealis that probably suggests a winter beer. So why is this a bloody pale lager??? Just like other Asian lagers except 0.5% higher in alcohol. You’d think that blokes who should know something about nips in the air should understand what a winter beer should be like.

Large bottle. Golden color. Some sweet hints to the aroma. Some fruit. Sweet malt with little complexity. Good simple easy drinking beer.

Canned. Golden coloured. Vague strawberry(!?) aroma. Sweet and clean. No bitterness.
