This is a bottle conditioned lager. But it blows. It is brewed as a lager (787 yeast), then 558 ale yeast is added at bottling for a second fermentation.

Brewed: early Feb 06
Consumed: early Mar 06
Expiration: October 06

Ingredients: Malt, hops, rice, corn, starch.


A - Slightly cloudy (I expected a lot more yeast in the bottle, from all the hype) yellow body with active carbonation visible and a pure white head.
S - Smells like your typical rice lager. Maybe worse.
T - Deep trashy adjuct flavor. Sweeter than your normal japanese rice lager. Lighter than average bitterness. I am stunned that this is not a happoshu.
M - Heavy on the carbonation, blah.
D - They need to stop it with the adjuncts.
