Bottle via Seoul Plaza. Shitloads of oxidation, lots of caramel flavour and sweetness. Med-high bitterness, med-high sweetness too. Not much in terms hops character, there is light red apple, red fruits and resiny flavour. Feels really old, killed by wrong handling. Average-bad.

Bottle. Amber color, yellowish foam. Aroma: sweetish nectar, citrus, floral, fruity. Taste: sweet, full malt, nectar and a little honey, citrus and grapefruit, other fruits, dense hop bitterness with coniferous shades, not bad for mass-beer.

Bottle found in Suva. Good foam, pretty, nice brown, clearish with carbonation. Smells good with right hop bitterness and sweetness and not coming across as fake. Flavour is a malt forward IPA with solid sweet hop notes. Medium on the mouth. I had low expectations but was pleasantly surprised.
