Canned. Dark brown, small head. Aroma of licorice and orange. Thick and oily, but clean and simplistic moputhfeel. Strikingly salty and with enough body to hide the alcohol. Roasty finish.

Canned. Very pale yellow, no head. Papery aroma with lots of boiled vegetables. Sweet with rounded mouthfeel, obviously with lots of adjuncts. Not very good, but at least fairly drinkable.

A yellow beer with no head. Both the aroma and flavor is sour with notes of straw - I suspect rice. Another country tried, thanks to Per.

Pale blond color. Paperlike useless aroma. Useless flavor, just more bitter than the average.

2009 re-taste. I returned to Cambodia in 2009. I didn’t re-rate this beer but I should have. Cambrew has downgraded Angkor Stout and upgraded Black Panther. I would have scored this around 3.7-3.9, and it was the best stout in the country at that point in time.

Almost black with a whisp of light brown head. Aroma is light, faintly grainy with a hint of roast. Thick creamy body with hint of sweet, milky coffee and burnt raisins. Simplistic palate. Creamy, burnt finish. My beer of choice in Cambodia! 5-4-6-3-13 = 3.1

Hazy yellow colour. Fairly neutral aroma - hint of grain. Slightly wet palate. Grainy taste but little flavour overall. Ridiculously quick finish.
