334 ml bottle, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken, as Asahi Super Dry Black. ABV is 5.5%. Black colour, large beige head. Aroma of dark malts and dark bread. Dry flavour, moderate roast malts, very moderate hops. Nice enough to drink, but not particularly remarkable.

looked like a stout with a creamy thick head and dark coloring. tasted chocolatey at first but as I continued to drink it, it got brighter and crisp. reminded me of coke mixed with coffee. not too bitter, not too rich, not too dark, pretty safe in-between beer.

A - Dark brown pour with creamy caramel head resting on top.

S - Cereal grain aroma with some chocolate mixed in for good measure.

T - Pretty one dimensional with toasty roasty cereal grain from start to finish and ends on the maltier side.

M - Medium body that's a little thin around the edges.

O - Not awful, not great, just an easy quaffer.

I was actually a bit surprised at how decent this Dark Lager is. I was kinda expecting some kind of rice beer thing, but this is really not bad at all. Very mild hop taste with a lot more dark roasted malt flavor. The finish is slightly odd, not bad, but just seems to be a little bitter perhaps? Anyway, it is a good lager and I would recommend that you give it a try.

Actually a solid dark beer, with hint of roasted malt quite present, but still quite drinkable in the hot weather.

Bought a 6-pack bottles $9.99 Target. Made in Japan
Sell of dark chocolate
Dark black color
Medium-carbonation
Medium mouthfeel
Light roasted malts, lighter than I expected.
Overall an easy drinking beer. Probably would buy regular Asahi (Made in Japan version) over this.
