350ml can served in a tulip. Can't read anything, but looks like it's probably "best by" 2025.09. Bought it in Japan last week. Don't remember where.

Pours clear light yellow with a dense, creamy head that turns into a dense, even skin. Smell is green -- grass and leaves, honeysuckle and something between menthol and mint.

Taste is on the same train. Lighter, brighter, more lemon and flowers, bitterness not exactly subtle, but well-integrated so it doesn't stand out as a character on its own.

Mouthfeel is light, clean, dry. Overall, this is quite nice. Not a knockout, but easily would make "perennial fridge beer" status if readily available and reasonably priced.
