330ml can from the Beer Bank, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a murky light golden colour with a mostly lasting frothy white head. The aroma is grainy malt, light woody hops. The flavour is moderate sweet and bitter, with a smooth, rich, earthy, mineral, dry, hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. A pretty good white stout I must say and most unexpected.

330ml can at the Beer Bank, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a hazy light straw colour with a short-lived fizzy white head. The aroma is mango, mango and some more mango. The flavour is moderate to light sour, with a light, watery, mango, herbal, light floral palate. Medium to light bodied with lively initial carbonation that rapidly dissipated. A watery alcoholic mango juice.

No head after one second, big-bubbled lemonjuice-like beer. Herbal, weedy, bitterish citrus, nashi pear, limequat, coriander. Sweetish taste, sweet citrus juices. Sweet softdrink-like, tasting as if citric acid and Traubenzucker were added. Light, flat, dull. Chinese interpretation of Gose? Certainly not a Covid antidote. Thanks to Stef!

Shrewsbury Beer Share Group Meeting, Chez Sophie; 28th Oct 2019. Cheers Mat for bringing this 330ml can to the table. Light haze to the amber body, wispy white head. Malty and fairly sweet throughout, mild yeasty and spicy undertones try to come through. Interesting and different for a Chinese brewery.

330ml can @ monthly tasting, Chez Sophie, Oct 19. Brought by me. Hazed amber appearance, off-white head. Aroma is yeasty, some light banana. Smooth amber yeast, gentle banana, clove, pleasant richness of flavour without seeming unbalanced. Good weizenbock that seems to have travelled some way to get here.
