350 ml can in Shin-Osaka with a BB date stamp of 11-2018.
Pours amber with excellent clarity and a moderate size white head that has rather weak retention.
It smells like a well crafted and well balanced balanced pilsner, albeit with a higher malt/hop balanced than usual, The taste is a bit disappointing.
Feel: near medium body with overly prickly carbonation.
Overall: Clean, solid pilsner.
