Kawabata - by Aqula

Aqula - Kawabata Pilsner - Akita Prefecture - 5.5% - 330ml bottle:
Taste: Prominent malts, hops present to a lesser extent, citrus hints, delicious creamy head, fizzy body, refreshing.
Smell: Malts, cream and lemon scents.
Look: Body is a light golden brown, steam of carbonation, small but strong head, some lacing.
Verdict: This gold medal winner of the Japan/Asia Beer Cup in the Pilsner-family division is truly a great malt beer- the best I have had so far in Tokyo, which says allot since it's a popular style here. Highlights include the creamy taste of the head, and crisp refreshing feel from the carbonation level.
