This beer is "traditionally brewed with the finest hop's pure water and barley malt" (nice grammar mistake). Ingredients are: malt, hops, and corn.
Clear gold color with a slowly vanishing white head makes it somewhat presentable. The smell is sweet malts and some fragrant hops--not bad!
Malty sweetness is the overriding taste of this beer, but there is a surprisingly welcome hop jumpkick dryness that gives this beer a level of quality. The taste is also backed up by a solid mouthfeel--moderate bubbles that give this swill some spank, throughout the mouth and tongue and throat.
Packed in an attractive all-platinum can with a classic manga look to it, this beer is a mystery or sorts. It claims it comes from the Netherlands, but little info exists other than that, only the large name of the Doshisha Corporation on the can. However, even on their website, the Muginosuke is nowhere to be found.
This beer has been one of my mainstays since coming to Japan, simply for it's incredible value. It's mysteriously under a hundred yen a can, making it the cheapest beer around. And it's far more drinkable than others of near-similar prices. If you're in pinch in Japan, head for the Mugi.
