H-Mart, Merrifield, VA 633ml ($5.50): Pours a pale gold with a white head. Aroma is very light. Body is also very light, but it does have a pinch of hops. This doesn’t really have any offensive elements and is absurdly easy to imbibe.

Big white head. Clear golden body. Light strawy apple taste with floral notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, soft, faintly astringent mouthfeel. Dryish wooden apple aftertaste with corn notes. Bitter, buttery aftertaste lingers. (0.35l can, New Yaohan Supermarket, Macau.)

Pours pale yellow into a shaker. Bright white head with medium retention recedes to hug rim. Cookie and biscuit aromas. Dry with sweet and sour cookie front to back. Good with Asian food.

Boring yellow body and that awful thin styrofoamy head that rice-brewed beer gives you. Aroma of faint cardboard. Flavour is at least a noticeable cardboard and malt concoction with a dry finish. Another faceless lager.

(can) yellow colour with medium tall white head; aroma of corn, grain; bland flavour, rather unattractive without being downright nasty; ingredient list: malt, hop, rice, corn grits, corn starch - warns you not to expect much

Can. Grassy, citrus hop aroma. Sweet, malty flavor, fruity. Nice saaz hop flavors. Tasty. Overall not bad but a bit too sweet, slightly cloying. Tasty hops, but they really need more in the finish to bitter it.

Grass, rice, lemmon, pear and cinnamon in the aroma. Color of a bud light or any other Mass-Macro. Pours with a largish bubbly white head. Watery and bitter rice taste, but not in a very bad way, actually a decently refreshing aftertaste. Watery start to the mouthfeel ending very dry. Highly carbonated. Pretty boring.

Bottled (as Orion Premium Beer, 5%) at Monks Café, Stockholm. Lightly hazy pale yellow, brief head. Vague applearoma Sweet and ricey with light body. Soft and very drinkable, butrather void of desired flavours. Some paper shows up in a finish almost entirely without bitterness.
