Onre thing this beer is not and that is Super Dry.
However it has a touch of dryness that makes it inoffensive but not very exciting.
The cloudy deep golden beer has little head or bead that has a hint of toffee on the nose ,that ,unfortunately is quickly consumed by a watery metallic smell.
The palate is the same as the nose , starting with promise and ending quite boringly.
Its a drink you could drink in a pub but hope for other options

bought this during a %25 off sale so it was worth a sample. not a total stinker, but there was one major problem with it. it wasnt super dry. if it wasnt ice cold this super dry was pretty ordinary.

poured with a mammoth head like beaten egg whites that disappeared to nothing at a rapid pace, along with a beer that is the standard gold lager color. smelled a little grainy with some apples. tasted very sweet, a bit winey, some malt. faded badly into a saccharine sweet flavor that resembled asprin, with no real hop presence and a total lack of bitterness or dyness. had virtually no carbonation, yet seemed crisp. very strange.

seeing as i picked this up for bugger all im not going to complain too much. i can assure you tho i wont buy it again. ok when chilled down, it deteriorates rapidly from there. compared to asahi, no way this is a super dry. ill stick to other lagers from these parts if im going to have one. gimme a strongarm someone.
