"The first canned beer in Japan released in 1958" according to the label (or thereabouts, I translated it from the Japanese). That's why it's the Gold "Revival". Location : Japan > Osaka

It also says on the label that it's "mild" and "easy to drink".
Well that is certainly true.
It has a really light colour, looking almost like a watered down lager. And it tastes like it too.
Although a big head in the glass when poured, it's hardly fizzy at all. There's no real taste to it, other than a very watered down lagery feel.
I can hardly believe that it's 5% alcohol. Potentially very dangerous! Very drinkable and would be a great session beer I think.
Ultimately forgettable, but goes down quickly and gets the job done.

| Asahi have re-re-released this for the summer of 2010, so I tried it again (I had actually forgotten I'd drunk it back in October last year - not sure if that says more about me or Asahi). Anyway, pretty much the same as before, quite a nice, if slightly bland lager. Good for coolign down in the heat - wonder if that's why it gained 2 points on last year? |
