350ml Can from Family Mart, Shin-Okubo, Tokyo (¥262):
An interesting change up from the usual pale lagers & dark lagers that I've tried from Sapporo but ultimately this one ended up being another poor offering from the brewery & one that seemed unbalanced, cheap & a little basic at times. It started with some citrus & pine but both seemed overdone & didn't help the balance of the beer much either. There was some background fruits & basic malts adding a little sweetness towards the end but it was over-carbonated & hard to drink at times; definitely not one that I'd pick up again I'm afraid.
