This beer recently arrived in the Convenience stores in Japan, from Sapporo Brewery to celebrate "The History and Tradition of Japan's Oldest Beer Hall" apparently.
The Ginza Lion is a beer hall in Ginza, Tokyo (I'm guessing) that has been going since 1899 (not guessing that, it says it on the can).

The Ginza Lion Premium is a golden beer on the pour with a small, light, white head.

It has an odd, almost dirty bath water smell to it which isn't so nice.

On the palate it has a light taste and isn't too malty. A bit disappointing to be honest as I was expecting a bit more from this. What with it celebrating an old beer hall and stuff.

Overall it's a drinkable but fairly ordinary beer.
