Beers similar to Sapporo Lager

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Sapporo Lager's malty and bitter character. First sold in 1877 by the Kaitakushi brewery, this is the oldest Japanese beer brand still on the market, nicknamed Akaboshi after the red star on its label. Unlike the draft range it is heat-treated, which gives it a rounder, fuller body. Brewed from barley malt with rice, maize and starch, it pours bright gold with plenty of foam. A pilsner-like hop aroma meets bready malt; the palate is malty and slightly sweet, balanced by a firm bitterness that carries into a dry finish.
