Bottle. Pours gold with thin fast dissipating white head. Little Lacing. Pleasant hay aroma, like a Pilsener but light. Flavour starts out well, then goes into a clayey something with a metallic finish. This is not a pilsener.

(bottle, 32cl) Clear, pale golden colour with a short foamy white head. Slightly sweet malty aroma with subtle citric and grainy notes. Moderately sweet flavour, light to medium bodied with a moderate carbonation. Shy grainy and slightly papery malty taste with traces of herbal hops far in the background; dry-ish finish with a whiff of herbal hops. Wow, almost drinkable after you have sampled Bintang, Saigon Export & Beerlao. 28.VIII.10

Bottle: Poured a golden color lager with a medium size bubbly head with average retention for the style. Aroma of light adjunct with sweet notes is more or less pleasant. Taste is very similar to most cheap lager out there with loads of corn and other adjunct which provide a sweet malt backbone. Not worth drinking on a regular basis.

Bottled (from bierzwerg.de). Pale yellowish golden colour with mediumsized bubbly white head, that disappears quite quickly. Aroma is cooked vegetables, maizelike sweetness as well as some slight grains and mild metallic notes. Flavour is maizelike sweetness, some earth, mild cooked vegetables and grains. Not the worst of lagers...

15/03 A 0.32 l bottle brought home from Asian store in Mitte, Berlin. It poured golden body with medium sized head. Some hay and corn, so typical pale lager aroma. Sweetish corny flavor, very simple and watery with short finish that showed up some herbal bitterness, not really the best one. Nothing too bad here, but dull and easily forgettable. At least new country for me!

12 ounce bottle from Total Wine, Richmond, VA. Iām thankful this is in a brown bottle. Pours a very clear very pale yellow color. Large frothy head sticks around a while but has poor lacing. Aroma of sweet malts with a nutty, faintly grassy finish. Taste is cloyingly sweet artificial seeming malts, honey and a faint grassy finish. Thin-medium bodied. I could probably choke this down but it would be such an unenjoyable experience that down the drain it goes.

can, courtesy of Tony @ OTH. pours golden, white head. aroma mostly pale malts, some wheat and sweetness. flavor, wheat and plenty of pale malts, light bitter hops. Where the whole beer falls short is in the clear indication of starch added to the mix. A quick way to ruin everything with chemically altered corn.

30th July 2008. Bottle from the Philippines. This generally is poor from anywhere else! Pale gold lager. Light and crisp. Watery but in a refreshing spritzer sort of way. Refreshing. A beer close to my heart as I drank loads of it in the Philippines. Sometimes even had this for breakfast when the water was suspect.
