Draught at the ZhangMen taproom in Kaohsiung, on October 5, 2017. As part of a flight.Had this down as "Kölsch" at 4.6% and 25 IBU, but googled my name to UCCU and the characters.Hazy pale golden color, white head with some lacing. A bit weak taste, mainly malty, nothing wrong with it, just sort of bland. Mild malty and herbal aftertaste. Medium mouthfeel, low to very low bitterness. Malty, clean, hints of vegetal scent.5/3/5/3/10=2.6

Spritziger, drückend bitterer Antrunk. Frischer Hopfen, dabei Aromen von Trauben, trocken, leicht blumig. Die aufkommende Trockenheit verringert dabei die Aromenvielfalt. Nett. 10/10/11/10//10

Poured from 330mL bottle (stamped 2016.06.22). Golden orange with off-white head, tiniest amount of sediment. Mild caramel malt, light herbal hopping with hints of grapefruit hops. Easy to drink, good balance, not huge flavour though.
