The Philippines’ standard lager, with pale yellow blonde colour and frothy head. Grainy, clear corn presence but not the somewhat more refined rice I’m used to from Asian lagers, mild aromatic hops. Thin and bland, but I had worse among similar European brews.

330 ml bottle. Pale straw gold color. Large foamy white head. Light grainy malt nose redolent of corn. Sweet malt flavor with more corn. Light body and flavor. Just a whisp of dry hops in finish. Not much going on here.

33 cl bottle as "San Miguel Premium Pale Pilsen" from a supermarket in HK, 18.90 HK$, quite expensive, made in New Territories, HK. Yellow color, big bubbly white head. Subtle nose of grains. Aroma: at first was "yuck!", but then mild grains, corn, glucose. After a while a lagery tone wakes up, cornflakes, alcohol already noticeable. Taste is uncertain, flat. Quite unrefined and average, light bodied, slick feel, carbonated, anonymous finish. Not really worth the price

320ml bottle. PD 25/01/2012 - ED: 25/01/2014 - AEF 11-010
The nose is grainy, smooth. The beer starts neutral-grainy, smooth, but dusty-malty. The mainpart is the same, dust, malt, not very fresh. The aftertaste has hints of bitterness, lots of dust.
Easy to drink, not very fresh beer.

Clear light golden with bubbly white head. Pear, peach, light sweet dough, some grass and herbs. Quite fresh light fruity sweetness with slight dry finish. Light bodied. Nice pils. Another bottle in 2015 (why?). Quite skunky and some cardboard, unbalanced and too sweet. Not very good.

HK version, bottle from my student. fruity citrus, grass, corn, candy nose. Clear, deep gold, nice fine head. Bready, corny, ok hops, some citrus, almost no bitterness. Oh, no, there is some, all right, actually. Crisp body. Not terrible by any means, just lacking distinction. All right for an industrial lager.

Ein unspektakuläres, einfaches Lagerbier, das in Richtung Strandbiere geht, die in der Gegend ja recht beliebt sind. Kann man trinken- muss man aber nicht getrunken haben.
