Sapporo Light (pack of 6) (35.5cl, 3.5%)

Sapporo Light is a Japanese-style light rice lager from Sapporo Breweries Ltd., founded in 1876. It is brewed with malted barley, rice, corn, starch, hops and water, and uses a proprietary ceramic filtration method that removes yeast residue without heat treatment, passing the beer through a long ceramic cylinder at a constant temperature between zero and one degree Celsius. The aroma is subtle corn and rice sweetness, with faint grassy, herbal notes from European Saaz hops. The palate is light and slightly sweet, with gentle rice and corn grain flavours, then mild hop bitterness. The body is thin but not watery. The finish is short and clean, with a slightly zingy, grassy snap and virtually no lingering bitterness.
