Bottle. This poured a clear, pale yellow color with a small sized fluffy white head. Aroma was mellow malts, some light earthy and grassy hop character. Flavor was light lager malts - some light skunky sweetness. Plain.

Shitty hay and corn aroma. Crystal clear yellow, medium head. Drab corny flavor. Blah, not much to see here at all.

0.33l bottle @ Hyundai Hotel, Ulsan South Korea. A clear and pale body with a small quickly clenching to the sides of the glass just off-white lager head. Thin fruity-watery hints and some weak hops in the aroma. Average carbonated and with a thin and watery mouthfeel. Hints of burned malts in the flavor, some thin dusty hops and the whole thing ends extremely, and then I really mean extremely watery. Just like having a glass of tap water. No extreme bad flavors, even though I did not care to much for the burned tones. Drinkable as a thirst quencher.

Draught at Korean restaurant. Faint maizy aroma, slight watery flavour, no finish. The commercial description is a lie. If you are in a Korean restaurant and they have this or water, drink water.

Seoul Garden, Ktown, NY, NY: Pours an extreme pale with a white head. Aroma of adjuncts and all that. There are a few notes of beer in this, but overall, you get a grainy pale lager without any real redeeming quality. I mean it is easy to drink, but I got to say it doesn’t even go all that well with kimchi.
