(Can) Pours clear straw with tiny white head. Subtle aroma with notes of grain and grass and floral / perfumey hints. Light bodied and fizzy. Very thin watery taste. Notes of grain, biscuit, grass. Some sweetness, and some modest bitterness in the finish. It’s a bit like a lager diluted with soda water. It’s drinkable, which is an improvement on the regular Terra.

30/11/2023. Can from an Asian store in Ipswich. Pours slightly hazy dark straw gold with a large foamy white head. Nasty looking black lumps settled in the bottom of the glass. Aroma is quite peculiar, grainy, corn syrup, sulphur, candy, cardboard, with hints of appetiser, weak cola and rum. Quite sweet with mildly unpleasant metallic bitterness. Light body, watery, a little fizzy. Awful. No redeeming features whatsoever. Except it’s a Vietnam rate.

After some great Korean bbq chicken, I got this from HMart. Can this improve on previous crappy Korean beers: Pretty skunky smell right in the first pour. Gotta give it points for looking like a pale, straw-colored lager under a sudsy head. Gassy and grassy, and skunky taste. I guess there some hops trying to balance it, and at least it doesn't taste like there's artificial sweetener in there. Oh, well, this was an afterthought after I picked out a sake to have later.

500ml can from Beru Vykodnoi in Moscow. Pours clear gold with a medium-sized white head. Aroma and taste are malt and grain, light to medium sweetness. Light bodied. Seems to have more character than the average South Korean macro.
