Asahi Direct Shot

Direct Shot from Asahi is aptly named. It sports what is claimed to be the world's largest opening on a beer can. Extra carbonation, special ingredients and a special flavor balance all combine to create a 120% increased sensation (as measured using a sensation detection method and using another Asahi beer as the control) when drinking this 3rd category beer.
