Poured a clear golden yellow, with a thin white head.
Mild hops aroma, followed by decent bittering hops and malt flavour. All told, it was very clean, pleasantly drinkable, with almost no aftertaste.
It's not bad, but - perhaps not surprising given the style - not particularly interesting.

Ingredients: Barley, hops, starch and rice

This beer is made with koshihikari, which is considered the finest japanese table rice (as opposed to sake rice).

Clear golden/amber with white head.
Sticky nice hoppy aroma.
Grainy, a little soapy, with a boring finish.
Creamy and smooth mouthfeel.
Enjoyable, but not exciting.
