Bottle shared at Mechazilla. Thanks Brandon! Pours a clearish gold with 2 fingers of white head. Citrus, pineapple and mango dominate the nose. Mouthfeel is a little grainy with some zesty, pithy bitterness. Finish is bitter and citrusy. Not a bad effort at all. Much better than the IPA. --- Beer merged from original tick of Thunder God (雷公淡啤) Pale Ale on 04 May 2016 at 23:08 - Score: 8

Bottle at Kowloon Taproom. Hazy golden/orange with a white head. Fresh aroma and taste of hops, grapefruit, grass and some pineapple. Also cookies. Relaxed and easy to drink. The finish was medium bitter.

Bottle from Bottle Shop at home. Golden amber pour - clear. Aroma is malty with crisp hops. Taste is like apple soda - not super apple-y but has that sensation. Very fruity for a not-that-hoppy or bitter pale ale. Some mango. Very crisp. Pleasantly surprising in the amount of flavor for a light pale ale. Nice - would get again if it weren't so expensive.

Bottle in Hongkong directly from the brewery. Fresh smooth and great tropical nose. The beer starts fresh and fruity. Lots of fresh and intense tropical fruit - mango, pineapple, passion fruit. Not too sticky. The body is smooth and not too sweet and let’s the hops in the foreground. Great floral fruity aftertaste with not too much bitterness. Round and great! Fruity deep and still easy to drink. Great stuff!!

Definitely English in style and to be fair, I drank this at the end of a long session, so I probably lost some of the subtleties. Overall, not poorly made, but just not that exciting.
