Beers similar to Sapporo Premium Light

Sapporo Brewery

Light Lager·Japan·3.5% ABV·One of 122 Light Lagers in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Sapporo Premium Light's dry and malty character. A lighter sister of the flagship, reduced in alcohol and body but built on the same basic recipe of barley malt, hops, water and yeast. It pours pale straw-gold with lively carbonation. Soft grain and cracker notes lead, joined by a gentle, slightly sweet malt character and a faint floral hop touch. The body is thin and smooth, and the finish is clean and dry with only a hint of bitterness.
