Thanks kajser! Shared with him and ogivlado. Bronze-copper body, off white lasting thick head. Empty aroma, vague maltiness, grainy. Empty taste, sweetish, vague clean maltiness, creamy. That’s it. Nothing else. Impressively light for 6.5%. Nothing great about it, damn drinkable, better than the sum of its parts.

Bottle pour into tulip glass from Manchester Wine and Liquors. Appearance is clear, dark copper with trace sparkle, minimal off-white head, quickly fading to ring, with fair lacing. Aroma is caramel malt, fruit, English hops. Taste is fruit, caramel, English hops. Palate is light-to-medium bodied, thick texture, soft carbonation, and malty, sweet finish. Overall, good for the style. Enjoyable but not complex.

Shared 11.2 oz. bottle. Pours amber and clear, with a messy white head. Spotty lacing. Aroma is malty and sweet. Taste is more sweet malt and caramel. Low bitterness. Not much going on with this one.

Mahogany Brown Color, Big Foamy Head That Lasts And Lots Of Thin Lacing. Light Toasted Lagerish Aroma. Lightly Toasted Malt, Light Bitter and Slightly Sweet. 6.5% ABV but feels a lot lighter. Watery, easy To Drink. Nothing special although considering the region and styles that rules it, this one is quite decent. Worth a Try although I would not go out of my way to seek it.OK

Bottle from a local Asian restaurant. Poured a slight clear, dark amber color with a pretty large off-white head. Aroma was sweet malts, light toasted notes - light Vienna lager character. Light toast, caramel. Okay, probably one of the best of these kinds of beers you’ll get at a non-craft Asian restaurant.
