Can shared with the Bangkok tasting crew. Poured a milky straw colour with a thin broken white head. The aroma is malt, grassy, gluey (specifically Evostick contact adhesive!!) light citrus. The flavour is moderate bitter with a crisp, light citrus fruit, light alcohol palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Nice fresh and a solid beer but the bitterness in the finish was not to my taste. Whether it was a brewing or storage issue I don’t know and where it came from is a mystery, but the bitterness in the finish was not great. The promised citrus really didn’t come through.
