Mar 13, 2003 How can I compliment this one? If urine in a bottle were coveted, then this would get a 20. Still, better than Bud so I can't give it all ones.

Feb 27, 2003 Pretty average beer. The color is a little like copper/orange and the flavor is forgetable.

Feb 14, 2003 Generous head. Faintly hoppy aroma. Tastes like a big-brewery lager. Not bad but not too exciting.

Jan 27, 2003 Sweet soapy aroma and grainy sweet palate. Bitter finish but also a little sourness. I was confused by the name "stout draft" on the label.

Light malt sweetness in nose and flavor. Very low hop rate.

Jan 2, 2003 An interesting brew that delivers far more hop value that one would traditionally expect from dry Japanese ale. I’m a big fan of IPA and ESB’s, and love sushi, so tend to scope this one out when I’m looking for something a little different with some fresh cut fish. Sapporo’s regular beer’s are quite uneventful, but the Stout Draft from their Yebisu brand is a nice alternative.
This one, like traditional Japanese lager/pilsener styled beers, pours very very light, with moderate carbination and little to no head. Because of the high hop count, the aroma on this one is quite pungent and may catch many off guard.
The name itself is quite a misnomer, calling it a stout, when it’s anything but that. It’s mildly spritzy, almost fruity, and delivers a heck of a punch in the aftertaste department. It’s not a beer that I’m wild about simply drinking on its own, but as an accompaniment with some great food, this beer is definitely a winner.

Dec 17, 2002 Well, it’s ot a stout in anyway, shape or form but it is a decent beer (with food). Light gold color, no head, too much carbonation, flat taste. Stick with standard Japanese brews Kirin and Sapporo Draft. Bought at sam’s in chicago for $2.49
