Beer Review: Sapporo (Japan/Canada)

Hey all. I'm back from the realm of non-posting with a fresh new crisp update for you all. Are you ready to have your minds blown?

Today I'll be reviewing Sapporo, since many of you have asked this.

Where to start... ok well first of all, let's break some myths about this beer. If you are drinking it in the States or in Canada, sorry to break it to you, but its not important from Asia. It's in fact brewed in Canada. So if you are paying $10 a can for it, you are getting ripped off.

Let's get to it

Looks: Golden opaque with a thin white head that doesn't last.
Smells: Strong citrus, some hops, rice. A bit aggressive on the nose I find.
Tastes: Rice, lemon. Quite crisp, fresh. Leaves a long bitter after taste.

Looks: 3/5 - Nothing particular about its looks. Rated up because I like the can.
Smells: 3/5 - Again, nothing really particular here. It smells like a typical rice beer.
Tastes: 6/10 - Again... nothing really particular here. Its a rice beer that's basically an upgraded bud. I mean that in the nicest of ways possible.
Overall: 12/20 - Have when you have sushi. Otherwise, stick to your local brewers.

Edit: Ok ok smartasses, I made a type, big deal. 12/20 :P

No Post: Second in a row!

Sorry about that guys. Just got home a few minutes ago, so as you can guess, no new review today. Thankfully, you can expect something tomorrow, promise.

In other news, I've mostly been reviewing the beer's I've been wanting to review. What would you guys like me to review? Let me know in the comments, I'll make a list and I'll TRY to get my hands on some (no promises, but I'll try my best).

No Post: Sorry guys

Sorry guys, no post today. I know I haven't been the best with them this week, but real life is really in the way of things lately. Funerals suck to organize (don't worry, just helping, not someone I was close to). Thankfully, it will all be over tomorrow. I'll try to get you guys a post tomorrow, if not I guarantee one Sunday for sure.

tl;dr: Update tomorrow after it or Sunday.
