Asahi 4VG 3rd Category Beer

This 3rd category beer uses 4-vinyl guaiocol which is either an off flavor or a flavor enhancer depending upon the product and your taste buds. Asahi claims this is an essential component of German Weizen beer, although they then clarify it is not beer (to maintain the non-beer tax status).

This compound is said to add a fruity flavor.
