(Bottle) I think this beer is miscategorized as a "pale lager" and I have a hard time understanding why it has such low reviews. This tastes more like a typical German Dortmunder/Helles, except without the richness of the malt. There are a lot of hops and the hops have a German character to them...good, somewhat metallic, but not unpleasant. Moderately bitter; much more bitter than is typical for something called a "pale lager". The main thing lacking about this beer is that it is extremely thin, to the point of being very watery. Still, it’s a perfectly drinkable beer. There is no unpleasant sweetness the way there is in most pale lagers.

Pours a dark straw colour. Sweet juicey malt nose, medium palate with a slightly nutty malt base. has a good finishing hop kick that rounds it out nicely.

334 ml botle from Mitsua Market Place: Pale golden color with a medium white head. Aroma is ligtly sweet and malty. Flavor is light and sweet with a lightly grassy bitterness and a crisp dry finish. Light body is oily with moderate carbonation.

Straw yellow color with moderate big- bubble, transient, white head. Sweet malty aroma of corn/grain and some hops. Taste is similar with a fairly dry and bitter finish for a macro. Thankfully, it is without adjunct off flavors.

(Yokosuka, Japan) From a can poured a clear golden color with a fair amount of head. Flavor of any normal macro lager, with a quick finish.

Can thanks to Garrett. Pours a light golden with a thick white head. The aroma was mostly a metallic skunk. The taste was malty and some bready sludge, this reminds me of so many lagers I’ve drank till I was sick. Not exactly bad memories, but beer wise, this was pretty bad.

Good sized bright white head of fine bubbles. Reduces slowly to a sloppy rocky mess. Corn and dry uncooked rice in the aroma. Maybe some diaper in there also but not skunky at all. Color is a dark gold. Light carbonation. Pretty fizzy mouthfeel but a considerable malt body to this one. Much more than I expected. Light corn again a bit of sweetness. Pretty clean with a light bitterness. An ok lager. Has a little more body than most but not much else to brag about.

334ml Bottle - The Liquor Collection - Honolulu, Hawaii
Aroma – Smelled skunked from the time it was open until it was drank. Very stale and light struck.
Appearance – Light golden yellow color, decent fluffy head and clear.
Flavor – A typical over brewed malt beer with very little flavor and very skunked in the flavor also.
Palate – Slick pale Mouthfeel, some texture with a bland dry finish.
Overall – Had to try it so I can add it to I have tried them all list. It was pretty nasty actually a very poor beer in my humble opinion.
