I had an image that Kirinzan is spicy! I had an image that Kirinzan is spicy, but it was not too spicy and refreshing.
I bought it at a Niigata antenna store in Osaka.
100% "Gohyakumangoku" is used.
A refreshing sweetness spreads softly.
The mild acidity is crisp and refreshing.
The bitter taste comes in a gentle way.

It had little aroma but was very easy to drink. It was refreshing! Some people said it was like Kozen Suiyotsu, but I don't know exactly because it was quite a while ago when I had Kozen and I wasn't used to drinking sake at that time.
I'd like to try Kozen again.
Kirinzan (brand-name beer)
I'm traveling to Sendai and Fukushima tomorrow.
I didn't have any open bottles of sake, and since I had some karaoke, I stopped by Kichiike and bought some that I could finish drinking.
It's a nice, light, dry sake with a nice mouthfeel, like Niigata sake.
It is named after Kirinzan (Mt. Kirin), which is located right behind the brewery.
