Topic: Kirin Lager

Kirin Lager - The current version is thin and watery, and lacks the richness and bite of Kirin Lager as it was 20-25 years ago.
Kirin Classic - Supposed to be a recreation of Kirin Lager in the 60s and 70s, but lacks the richness of the original, circa 1977.
Kirin was rich yet sharp, Sapporo was soft and full, Asahi was lighter and grainy like an American beer, while Suntory was laughable and seemed to exist only to make the others seem better.

 1. Light Lager - BJCP Style Guidelines
Strong flavors are a fault, but premium lagers have more flavor than standard/lite lagers.
A broad category of international mass-market lagers ranging from up-scale American lagers to the typical "import" or "green bottle" international beers found in America.
Comments: Brewed to a slightly higher starting gravity than other light lagers, providing a firm malty body and underlying maltiness to complement the sulfate-accentuated hop bitterness.

 Beer Review: Kirin Lager (Kirin)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
tried this brew back-to-back with Kirin Ichiban, in order to compare these two Japanese offerings.
Like its fancier brother, I found the lager to possess both a light body and a light taste.
This brew was also crisp and refreshing, although it did not have a very complex flavor at all (as to be expected).

Today, the master brewers of Kirin faithfully create this premium lager from an original recipe.
It calls to mind those ridiculous commercials where Augustus Busch the Umpteenth earnestly explains that Budweiser is a premium beer that is made from a traditional German recipe and with careful craftsmanship.
Though Kirin's label way overstates its quality, it is much better than most mass-produced American beers.

 Brews News Issue 14 -- Fall 1998
A beautifully clear reddish brown lager beer with a fine, complex aroma and a rich, malty flavor.
This pale gold version of the heavy German lager known as Bock comes off a little too faint in the aroma, while the complex malty sweetness of the style is not sufficiently developed, leaving the beer too dry and a little too harsh.
In short, Kirin's really got it all wrong with this beer, and in England it's more likely to be embraced by lager drinkers than by people who normally drink pale ale, or its draft version, bitter.

Consumption of sake was overtaken by that of beer around the beginning of the 20th century and now beer - or its close relation, happoshu - accounts for over 75% of alcohol consumption.
Japanese beer brands such as Kirin, Asahi and Sapporo are known worldwide.

Steve: The cousin of Kirin Ichiban, but not quite as good...funny though: Ichiban was brewed in Canada by Molson; this was actually brewed in Japan, and brought back (in cans) by a friend who visited.
It had kind of a bland taste, but I believe it's quite high in alcohol, as I'm writing this soon after drinking, and my spell check will definitely get used.
