Last Updated on 2017-10-09 by Foodelicious

2017年5月初台灣7-11開始販售GRAND KIRIN “飛機雲與我”, 5月底則是紅白色包裝的GRAND KIRIN JPL, JPL 是 “Japan Pale Lager”的簡寫, 翻成中文則是“日本淺色拉格”, 至於GRAND KIRIN綠色包裝IPA何時會出現在7-11就不得而知.
Besides “Cloud Saison”, Japanese Kirin Beer now is promoting another beer – Grand Kirin JPL at Taiwan 7-11 sales channel. JPL stands for “Japan Pale Lager”. However, we don’t know when the green package Grand Kirin IPA will be launched.

為何取名為“日本淺色拉格”? 因為部份啤酒花是日本本地產的啤酒花 “いぶき(IBUKI)”, 屬於日本改良的啤酒花, 此外, 不同於大部分的亞洲啤酒,成分裡並無米.
You might wonder why it is called Japan Pale Lager. The main reason is that partial hops are IBUKI, which is originated in Japan. Unlike other Asia beers, the ingredient does not include rice.

此款精釀啤酒不需開罐器即可輕鬆地拉開瓶蓋, 倒出淺琥珀色的啤酒, 蓬鬆的啤酒泡沫在很短時間內消失, 小酌一口, 剛開始的口感是清爽, 口感帶有點麥芽芳香,本來以為會像海尼根般只有單一的苦味, 第二口後, 味蕾感受到兩種平行的風味- 顯明中度苦味和適度啤酒花芳香風味, 若是平常不太喝苦啤酒的人, 只會感受到苦味. 喝完後, 瓶罐中充滿了迷人的經典麥芽香和啤酒花香, 讓我暫時不想把啤酒瓶丟掉.

You don’t need a can opener for this beer. First, you pour out the light amber color beer body with soon-disappeared beer foam. The first sip is refreshing with hints of barley flavor. Unlike Heineken, there are two distinct flavors – medium bitter flavor and fair amount of hops aroma. If you don’t drink beer with bitter flavor, you probably only can detect the bitter flavor. After finishing the beer, you can smell the amazing mixed hops and barley from the glass bottle.
