This Winter Kirin (Fuyu Kirin 冬麒麟) from, obviously, Kirin came out a few months ago (I actually reviewed it in my notes on the 2nd December...got a bit of a back log of reviews), and comes with the tagline "Mild Taste".
Very appropriate.

It's a light golden fizzy lager (daisan), very fizzy in fact with a light fizzy head.

Nothing of note on the nose, and just as the can says, a "Mild Taste".
Slightly soft in the mouth, not much of an aftertaste, just overall a mild tasting lager. It is fairly dry (on the teeth) though.

Nothing distinctive about this one. Just "ok".
