This is one of the last 2020 beers I have. So over the next 3 weeks we will say goodbye to 2020 by drinking the last 2020 branded beers that I have left. So here is the first one: Sapporo Lager 2020.
First off the colour is quite dark, but not too dark. It does not get to a golden ale darkness but just slightly darker then the usual beer colour that you see. I am surprised by the amount of carbonation in this beer. It’s actually quite high. Small bubbles and some large bubble appear in this beer. Probably the most carbonation I have seen behind Asahi.
When I go to smell this beer I am not getting any interesting smells. It smells like a normal beer. When I first took a sip of the beer I got a bit of a watery taste. There is nothing wrong with a watery taste but I was not expecting it. I do get some sweetness that hits the back of my throat, but it is mixed with a little bitterness to not make this a sweet beer. There is a little bit of a wheat flavour that come through too. There is nothing bad about this beer but there is nothing good too. It’s just your average beer from a macro brewery.
My finial thoughts about this beer is that I don’t think this was a special 2020 beer. I think this was a normal Sapporo larger. I don’t think there is nothing wrong with that, I just wonder why 2020 was put on the can. I could not find a reason why in my research. It’s your average beer, its a nice beer to just grab. I would say check it out for yourself but we are not in 2020 anymore so you can’t find it anymore. Tell me what you think. Was this a special beer or just a normal Sapporo beer? let me know in the comment section down below.
