33 cL bottle. Pours clear yellow with a huge white head. Bitter and dry aroma, slight grainy. Flavour is quite soft and to be honest almost indifferent from water.

Poured with a clear gold color, white thin foamy head. Grainy aroma, crisp sweet taste. I didn’t hate it, but I wouldn’t seek it out again.

Bottle. Thanks to the white elephant trade at the 2nd Chicagoland RB Gathering! I can knock off another country with its typical Hienekan wannabe beer. Pale pale pour. Smells like tap water with a little malt stirred in. Usual pale pour, big head out of the bottle that quicly slows to nothingness. Taste is… geez, I don’t know what it is. It hasn’t gone bad, yet it just isn’t beer. Slightly grainy, much corny and kind of skunky. Slight bitterness fails to overcome lack of beerness.

Pale yellow color with a fizzy white head. Aroma of funk and some grain. Slight hints of rice, some grass, but mostly devoid of flavor. Leaves a fairly funky aftertaste.

Thin white head shrinks into a thin film. Very pale yellow body with some carbonation. Watery perfumed aroma. Taste is watery, perfumed grain with a touch of chalk. Really, really. poor. (Can.)

[Canned] Very pale yellow. Some rice, plenty of fizz but above all loads of water. Slightly syrupy finish. Completely void of anything even remotely likable.

Korean budweiser, golden in color. Smell is not worth sniffing very sour smelling. Taste is of a grainy american beer. Every bottle seems to be diffrent in alcohol %, so one night 7 makes you feel happy, the next it takes 3.

Bottle - my experiences with Asian beers made me a bit weary. Actually was okay - Not much aroma but tasted okay - at least as good as Old Mil.

A yellow beer with no head. The aroma is sour straw. The flavor is sour with notes of malt and straw. I believe brewing cereal gives this beer its sourness, which I don’t like.
