Asahi

Appears golden, with a hint of light brown.  Nice lacing & a white head that turns to a misty layer up top.

Smells sweet, malty, with mild grainy notes.  Tastes dry, clean, & malty.  Remarkably clean.  Hops pull through to balance the malty first impression.  Astringency from the hops.

Great light-medium body.  Smooth, slightly grainy finish.  Went well with mixed vegetables dressed with a kung pao & peanuts sauce.  Much better than most macro American Lagers.
