E-Malt.com News article: Japan: Asahi Super Dry to get new low-alcohol spinoff
Brewery news

Asahi Super Dry is Japan’s favorite brand of beer, so it was a big deal when Asahi Breweries changed its recipe for the first time ever last year. Now they’ve created a new member of the Super Dry extended family, Asahi Super Dry Dry Crystal, SoraNews24 reported on August 27.

Yes, “Dry” is in the official name twice, but Asahi Super Dry Dry Crystal isn’t an extra-dry version of Super Dry, nor is it a Sailor Moon Crystal-themed brew. Instead, Asahi Super Dry Dry Crystal is a low-alcohol version of Super Dry. While the standard Super Dry is 5 percent alcohol by volume, Dry Crystal is 3.5 percent, as indicated on its can.

Despite the lower alcohol content, Asahi Super Dry Dry Crystal won’t have a watery or bland taste, Asahi Breweries assures the consumers. The company is promising a satisfyingly full flavor, achieved in part through the use of Polaris hops and a higher-than-average fermentation rate for Dry Crystal.
