I find a lot of reviewers automatically punish mainstream beers. Calling them bland . Many beer drinkers dont want overly strong beer. Alternatively they might choose to drink quite a few in which case they'd look for a smoother easier pint. I always think that macro beers shouldnt be judged to the same standard as craft beers that are produced in smaller amounts. I also appreciate it put you in a hard position by insulting someone whom you probably know. Anyway keep up the good work.

GiantSpaceMonkey I had Ashai Super Dry in the huge tall cans here in Vancouver Canada in November 2016 and I did not like it because it was warm I may revisit it Again during the Easter holiday weekend this week but I love Sapporo beer which is a staple in my fridge the Japanese beers tastes better and are better Quality than Budweiser Coors light Miller lite MGD Corona Bud light same with the Germans and same thing with Prague

Oh man, Aaron, if it was warm, you cannot judge the beer. It needs to be ice cold. Definitely try it again as such. Cheers!
@TheAaronChand7 жыл бұрын
GiantSpaceMonkey yeah I was thinking there's no way this beer can be this bad Quality ever since the 19th century Japan has adopted western culture and they learned good craftsmanship from the Germans and that includes beer making so no way this beer can be bad like you said I had it warm so I did not get the full taste how dose it taste when chilled and compared to the western beers like Budwiser Coors light Miller lite MGD Bud light Corona

I got it right! I smelled this beer and said "nothing but grain". I'm learning! The taste was mostly grain as well, with just that tiny spark of hop at the end. Letting it warm up brings the hop out a little bit more, along with the roast on those grains. If I were to go for an adjunct, I'd definitely spring for this.

Great review Ronald! I will say this may merit a revisit since some things have changed. On my 25.4 oz can, it says both that it is brewed by Birra Peroni in Italy and that it is 5.2% alcohol! Overall, I do think it is a good beer but I have a preference for its competitor in Japan of Sapporo. The original, the reserve, and the black are just superb.

Excellent review! I'm glad you liked it. Interestingly, the Asahi I reviewed (imported from Japan) was 5.0% ABV. Also, most of the Asahi available here that you'll find in the form of 330ml brown glass bottles is actually made under license in Thailand then imported to Australia by the Foster's Group. I believe there is a slight difference in taste as well.
