I wonder what the market is that Sapporo is aiming at with the nutrient enriched beer. But then I also see beer commercials in the US with people working out drinking beer.

This Happoshu, the Namashibori, is usually my goto Happoshu, if I'm on the buying end.

In this case, it looks and smells average and is crisp in the mouth. Its taste is pretty unappetizing though and doesn't seem to resemble the normal Namashibori, which I have acquired quite a taste for. This one has a more sterile, medicinal taste, which makes drinking it a chore.

This is a "happoshu" which means the barley content was reduced to avoid taxes.

The can says that it contains 1/4 the daily dietary requirements for fiber. Contains malts, hops, barley, rice, corn, starch, starch and water soluble fiber.

I really want to give this beer straight 1s, but it wasn't really aweful. It just wasn't there. 8 parts soda water, 2 parts bud.

White small head and pure piss yellow body. The slightest malt aroma. Micro flavor with no hop flavor.
