Can. Clear pale gold, loosish white head. Aroma of mandarin, grapefruit, crackers, some pineapple and passionfruit. So it tastes. Dryish with considerably higher bitterness than I'd guessed from the aroma. Solid refreshment.

Can. Clear gold, a good cm of white head. Aroma of pithy lemon, some grapefruit, crackery bread, some pine and greenish tropical fruit. Moderately sweet, lots of citrus, nice hints of other fruit, a little resin towards the firmly bitter finish. Not a lot that's new here (including the fact that Citra tends to boss the show) but that's OK.

330ml can from the Beer Bank, Kuala Lumpur City Centre. Poured a mostly clear yellow golden colour with a mostly lasting white head and plenty of bubbles. The aroma is malt and lime. The flavour is moderate to light bitter, with a light, crisp, refreshing, grassy, malt, lime, light hop bitter palate. Ok, but being completely honest, it’s very much the same as a Corona with a slice of lime!

Can. Clear gold, 2cm white head. Aroma of crusty bread, a moderate amount of somewhat earthy spices. But the hops are a bit punchier than that suggested and it's clean and bitter with enough slightly rich breadcrust. Good, swiggable.

The flavour is moderate bitter, light sweet, with a smooth, somewhat watery, mango, passionfruit, light pineapple, light floral hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average to soft carbonation. Watery and lacks body. Not the best from GP.
