Revisited October 28th, 2021

The looks remain the same, but the smell is bolder, sweeter with suggestions of tropical fruit. The taste also comes across a bit richer, fuller; generally light sweetness with a suggestion of mild apricot and peach. The mouthfeel remains the same.

A different day, a different take on the beer. It's not much different, but enough where it counts (in my book) to bump up some of the scores a bit with a corresponding nudge up in the overall.

Poured at 45 °F; no canning date seen.

Clear, bright gold body; very active carbonation; fair head, thin and semi-creamy yet lasting. The smell is low-key; light malt with some rice softness. The taste mimics the smell; light with a mild graininess; weak hop bitterness. Light body; soft and billowy on the palate; very soft dryness overall.

This is a decent rice lager. There's little to suggest uniqueness yet it is pleasant enough. It is a nice, unassuming beer and easy to drink.

Poured at 53 °F; no canning data seen on the can.

Clear golden body with lots of visible carbonation, american lager! White head vanishes in an instant to a thin white ring, merica! Smells of rice and big malt with hints of corn, merca? Tastes hits the rice, then malt, then some water, and finishes with a light floral finish, much better than nose let on. MRCA! Feel is very crisp, thin, crushable and light, so refreshing. USA!
