Aug 12, 2008 19-Mar-08 (334-ml bottle: Purchased 17-Mar-07 for $2.99 at Holiday Wine Cellar in Escondido, CA) Pale golden in color with gorgeous clarity and a fluffy, semi-rocky, white head that builds to almost half an inch before settling to a thin layer. Aromas are very grainy, sweet, somewhat corny and very lightly hoppy. For an all-malt beer, this is smelling perilously close to a macro. On the palate, this light-bodied beer doesn’t really distinguish itself much from macros either. Mildly sweet, grainy malts lack the character of better pilsener-style lagers, and at best, hops add a touch of flavor and bitterness. Carbonation is medium to high, the bubbles are large and rough on the palate, and the combination leads to a rather bloating feeling in the stomach. If the label didn’t say this is an all-malt beer, I’d tend to think it was a slightly better version of an adjuncty pale lager.

Aug 8, 2008 12oz bottle from BevMo Mission Valley. Not worth the $4 price tag. Tasted like a beefed up Sapporo, nothing special.

Jul 17, 2008 Considered Sapporo’s flagship, this showed more German heritage than the plain Sapporo, but still didn’t do it for me.

Jul 8, 2008 I’m getting an orange zest smell, maybe a touch of baked bread aswell. The colour is a golden haze, nothing so special as to start a craze.
The taste is better than some other japanese brews, watery and light but give it its dues.
A tartness towards the end of the glass, on a six pack i would not pass.
Having said all that it’s still not great. Ill give it a 10 minus 8.
