Gold with a frothy white head that fades completely. Aroma of stale malts, straw, soppy corn sweetness. Taste is sweet with buttered corn undertones. Dry at the end with a very mild and stale bitterness. Medium body, moderate carbonation. Nothing here to hold the attention accept the country tick.

Tap from automatic machine at Incheon airport, Korea. March 2019. Strange way to create foam: added at the end after pouring beer... Decent beer.

Klare, goldene Farbe mit kleiner weißer Schaumkrone. Sehr schwach malziger Geruch. Geschmacklich absolut leer, etwas Malz lässt sich erahnen, Hopfen ist keiner vorhanden. Wässriger, flacher Körper. Lässt sich bei 45 °C sicher super trinken, wenn man Wasser verabscheut, am Feierabend enttäuscht es mich maßlos. Nicht mal meine üblichen Gedanken, es hat ja wenigstens keine Fehlaromen, können helfen.

Bottle from the DR. Clear light gold with a generous white head. Grassy corn aroma. Starts sweet and echoes the aroma. After a few sips, the flavor becomes non-existent. No bad flavors, just not many at all. Another great beer that needs to be drunk on a beach in the Caribbean

Bottle. Malty aroma, grainy notes, wet cardboard. Tastes the same as aroma, light sour notes, light bittes. Light body, malty light bitter finish. Not good.

Bottle pour into nonic pint glass from Total Wine & More, Burlington. Appearance is clear, pale, bright golden yellow with lively sparkle, 2-finger width fizzy white head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is weak mix of cardboard and musty basement, mild pilsner malts, hint of tart fruit. Taste is almost imperceptible pilsner/cracker malt and fruit. Palate is light bodied with thin texture, average-to-lively carbonation and finish as taste with mild bitter. Overall, glad to have had the opportunity to try a South Korean beer. In trying to find something positive to say, though usually reserved for high ABV beers, I would say alcohol is hidden well because EVERYTHING IS HIDDEN WELL (much like a real estate listing describing a hovel as cozy ). There are session IPA's and even low/no alcohol offerings that have as much flavor as this. How did they get it to be so crisp and refreshing without slowing you down and still have 4.3%? Other than there's nothing here to offend and the carbonation would be thirst-quenching, there is nothing to recommend.

Tight white head stayed on a translucent, pale Carn coloured body. Sweet floral aroma with lemon. Medium to thin bodied, tingly to the fore with an abrupt finish. Sweet citrus, lemonade, yeast, saccharin & soap tastes.

Bottle at annyong in Manchester. Nose is faint straw, carton. Palate is very little, mostly faint citrus. Bad and boring.
