Asahi Breweries Super Dry Pale Lager at 5% ABV (C$2.69 at Quarry Park Calgary Co-Op, 500 ml, no bottle date or best before, reviewed 13-Mar-2016)
Appearance: clear straw with two fat fingers of fluffy white head, excellent retention and moderate lacing. (4/5) Aroma: biscuity, corn and rice adjuncts, grassy, light citrus. (4/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate-low bitter. (4/10) Palate: light body, lively to moderate carbonation, crisp lightly bitter and metallic finish. (3/5)
Eh. Standard pale/Euro lager with lots of adjunct character and a slightly metallic finish. Marginally better than a Coors Lite, but that’s not exactly a high bar, is it? (10/20)
