Bottle poured into a shaker at some Asian Fusion restaurant. Pours a clear gold with minimal head. Drinks pretty clean. Light, grassy flavors. Overall, not bad. Nothing to seek out, but quite drinkable.

33cl bottle at a Chinese joint in Brussels. Dorée claire, col blanc fin. Arôme est malté carapils léger avec une amertume quasi absente et ce profile grains/riz laissant un bouquet soufflé/doux. Palais reste malt tout en n’étant pas prédominant sur ce profile caramel léger et pâle. Ici juste le riz ajoute une dimension assez sympa et au final la bière est agréable à boire sauvée en partie par le riz. Côté amer houblonné reste modéré. Peut-être juste un effet de l’ambiance et de la nourriture, mais la bière était, pour le style, sympa à boire.

Bottle. Pale yellow, small fizzy white head that dissipates quickly with minimal lacing. Aroma is grain, corn syrup, straw. Flavor is the same, with a strange metallic, almost astringent bitterness. Not so great, but country number 60.

As expected, a weak pale lager. Aroma is off, smells like wet cardboard. Taste is slightly better, whitebond paper. Looks decent in the glass, but leaves a lot to be desired....

Bottle courtesy of Nisse666. Pours clear pale yellow/golden with a small frothy white head that doesn’t leave much trace on the glass while dissipating. Smell is sweet with artificial sweeteners, rice, canned vegetables, silage and old bread. Taste is slightly sweet and bitter with bread, straw, orange peal, rice, lemon hard candy and metal. Mouthfeel is round, slightly astringent and light bodied. Finish is slightly sweet and bitter with bread, straw, orange peal, dry soil and maize.

330ml bottle. Clear pale golden colour with small, frothy, minimally lacing, white head. Strawy and grainy rice aroma. Taste is bitter and soapy. On of the worst beers I know.
