hopIQ found 10 beers with the same clean and dry character as Kirin Light. Kirin Light is the light lager of the Kirin range for the United States, sold at 3.2% and made like Kirin Ichiban from first-run wort only. Canadian barley malt forms the base, and Czech hops supply the hop character. It pours bright gold with lively carbonation. The nose is restrained, with a light hop note and faint malt sweetness. The body is thin and brisk, a gentle grainy sweetness comes through, the Czech hops add a mild spicy touch, and the finish is dry with soft bitterness. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
