Green 500ml bottle, shared with minutemat on 25th October 2021. Cheers Grumbo for sending the bottle, my 7th South Korean beer. Clear and clear golden body, short lasting white crown on top. Corn and rice? Surprisingly OK, or am I getting used to shitty Asian lagers?

Sample courtesy of Grumbo, cheers Graham! Slightly hazy pale yellow gold colour, white foamy head and aroma of malt, grain, citric, grassy. Taste is malt, corn grain, citric, fruity yeasty with grassy cardboardy bitterness. Light bodied, medium carbonation, dry bitter finish. Kind of OK, standard pale lager.

Sample thanks to Grumbo: Poured a golden with a white carbonated head. Aroma is skunky, how I have missed this from some of my earlier South Korean beers, malts. Taste is sweet, grassy, grain, wet, malty. Taste better than it smells.

2/9/2021. Bottle from MM Global Supermarket, Chelmsford. Pours bright golden with a frothy white head. Aroma of sweet malt, grain, corn biscuit, caramel, hint of citrus. Medium plus and low bitterness. Light body, slight oily texture, average carbonation. Not great but better than others I've had from Korea'sHite brewery.

12oz can from Korean market. Pale golden, small foamy white head. Aroma is grainy, faint vegetal notes and corn. Taste was sweet, corn, grains. Cooked vegetables notes were few and far between, and mostly just focused on the sweetness and adjuncts.

12oz bottle from Halftime. Clear golden pour, lively carbonation, big foamy head subsides. Grainy, corn aroma, cereal, sweet. More sweet grainy flavors with a really slippery feel. Just a trace of vegetal notes, much less than expected.

I had a 12 oz can of Hite to go with my first ever meal of Korean barbecue in Houston. The food was good, the beer was, at best, inoffensive. Intimations of citrus, cereal and biscuit. One and done I think.
