Brewery : Kirin
Location : Japan > Tokyo
Beer Type : Lager
Alcohol : 5% Abv
Score: 75 by MoIppai (12/09/2009)

Bought this in a bar in Kyoto. Quite a strange beer (no label on the bottle!) and a strange evening all round, but that's another story.

This was nice to begin with but soon became very heavy and hard to drink.

A pretty dry lager. It was the only beer that had in the club so was kind of forced to keep drinking it.

--Update 3rd July 2010--
Thought I'd update this as I've just bought it in a local supermarket and trying it now. It's not a great lager but it's not as bad as my previous experience.

A light golden beer, quite lively with a big frothy head.
Taste wise, quite dry, with some bitterness in the aftertaste.

Not great, wouldn't try it again unless had no choice, but I'll upgrade the score from 50 to 75, as it is drinkable.
