33 cl clear bottle, 1800 KRW or so. Pale yellow color, clear, short soapy head, fizzy. Sweet wet grains, cardboard, corn and unmalted stuff. Sweetish taste, light salty, carbonated, dusty texture, dryish finish. I guess this is the korean version of Corona/Sol, soft drink, maybe quaffable with lemon and a cup of salty peanuts, and nonetheless a lemon version exists.

Tasting at Matt’s
Pale blond color. Weird aroma, cheap but not bad. The rest is a shit trainwreck, soapy and unbitter, stale.

650mL bottle, pours a clear pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma is quite sharp, with crisp herbal, grassy, skunky notes. Flavour is along the same lines, with the same, skunky notes and detergent. Really pissy, shit lager as expected.

Flasche (640 cl) aus einem Supermarkt in Gwangju. - Goldgelb, blank. - Sehr schwache Nase: nur ein Hauch von süßlichem Malz und eine Andeutung von Herbe. - Antrunk mild hellmalzig mit angenehmer zart säuerlicher Note. Der milde Malzcharakter überwiegt bis zuletzt; der Hopfen ist nur angedeutet, mit schwach fruchtiger Orange und einem Hauch von Kräutertee. Mild rezent. - Im direkten Vergleich zu Hite ("All new") zeigt sich schonungslos die sterile, plastikartige Künstlichkeit des letzteren. Das OB dagegen ist durchaus trinkbar, verdient aber wegen viel zu schwacher Hopfung nicht die Bezeichnung „Pilsner“. Trotzdem deutlich besser als die allermeisten Supermarktbiere Südkoreas.

Can in Singapore. In comparison to the "normal" Dester not too much difference. Easy to drink, a bit grainy-watery. Not much bitterness in the end and a grainy slightly sweetish aftertaste. Probably a bit more balanced, but this could be an illusion.

Clear golden colour with quick fading head. Flavour has some sweet malt, cardboard and seems a bit stale.
