"The beer is clear golden in colour with a foam head that doesn’t stay for long. It tastes very light with a malty finish. Quite a lot of carbonation that stays throughout the tasting experience." - beersoftheworldproject.wordpress.com

Refrigerated 12 oz. brown bottle poured into a shaker. Clear pale. Aroma is light grain, light/medium body, medium carbonation, and pretty good lacing. Taste is light grain, rice. Pretty good for a pale lager.

Bottle at Myung Ga Korean restaurant, London on 15th December 2016. Pale gold with thin white foam decreasing. Sweet, softly fruity aroma with subtle hop notes. Fairly sweet in-mouth with dilute hop notes. A pilsner style savoury note. Not very much of a finish, but a pleasant texture and a quenching drink. One bottle enough though.

Can as Hite Ice Point from a trade with YantarCoast, 4.5 ABV. Pours clear gold, tall frothy white head. Average retention. Vague sugary grains, honey on nose. Light body. The flavour is mega clean. Total clearance of any possible character. Malty. One has to struggle for any hops. Why am I glad? I’ve got another country in the record. Thanks, Mark!

Kirkas, todella vaalea olut nopeasti kokonaan katoavalla valkoisella vaahdolla. Tuoksu makeahkon maltainen ja maissinen sekä vehnäinen. Myös maku makean maissinen. Kevyt suutuntuma kohtalaisen hiilihappoinen. Ei kuitenkaan vetinen, tästä pitää huolen runsas makeus. Erikoinen olutmaa ja toisaalta myös varsin erikoinen lager, niin hyvässä kuin pahassakin.

clear yellow colour, moderate sized white head, which collapses quickly; aroma of cardboard, metallic and wet breadcrust; taste is the same with some spicy-peppery notes and artificial metallic bitterness; not good at all, but at least drinkable

330ml bottle. Generic lager. Actually quite drinkable when cold, but there was a very unpleasant bitterness as it warmed up. Watery palate with really not much going on.
