AP-09, an enhanced dog whose neck is made of steel, embarks on an epic journey in search of the best beer to pair with his favorite Ball Law Yau, fighting off monsters (aka beer snobs) along the way.

This straightforward, yet potentially buttery Wee-Heavy is AP-09’s strong stand against all beer snobs.

On tap at Hong Kong Island Taphouse, pours a deep dark amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out bready malt and a hint of caramel. Flavour is very malty and sticky, with syrupy caramel, bready malt, and toffee. Extremely syrupy but not quite cloying. It's alright.
