4.5/10
This was my go-to beer when I lived in Korea in the 1980's. Mediocre stuff, but better than Soju. I still have an '88 Olympic beer mug from them.

Bottiglia trasparente. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera tenue e l'esistenza olfattiva è sfuggente. Il cappello di schiuma resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido è di aspetto trasparente. Il colore è giallo dorato carico. Il corpo è leggero. L'amaro è scarsamente percettibile. La forza gustativa è tenue. La continuità gustativa è impercettibile. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di facile beva. Non ha un retrogusto particolare. In bocca non arriva nessun aroma su cui riferire.

Bottle shared with ShivanDragon, thanks! Sweetish with some malt, low hop profile. Medium body. Boring lager, few saving graces.

(Bottle 48 cl) Again - for Korea - this beautiful fresh, flowery hop scent. What are these hops they use? Beautiful golden colour with a fast fading head. In flavour this is typical Korean: water with a slight malt aroma and only a volatile hint of bitterness. This is not foul or anything, just completely without character. 48 cl bottle, they do keep odd bottle sizes those Koreans. Probably the Easter Bunny snapped to 2 cl away... 270503 2.1

(Bottle 50 cl) Golden with a pretty much non-existing head. Nice hoppines in the nose to begin with, but this fades fast. Apparently the hops are for the scent only, there’s absolutely no trace of them on the palate. Light and fresh (as promised but extremely watery. High on carbonation. 250303 2.1

Tap at Matina lounge, Incheon airport. Clear golden, medium white head, not too lasting. Medium vegetable and corn nose. Medium bitterness, sparkly. Mild aftertaste. Watery. Good when ice cold.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. This is my first South Korean beer but it doesn't look like I've chosen a particularly good one. Clear gold, small well lasting white head. Aroma of malts, hint of lemon, hay, grass - to be honest it isn't too bad on the nose. Taste is fairly clean if bland, lager malt, some corn notes, some mineral dryness. Fairly crisp and bitter. Its quite easy to drink.

Bottle 0,33ltr: Golden colored brew with an slightly dry bitter taste with some sweetness. Slightly worser than an American Budweiser, but better than the earlier tasted and rated Cass Fresh of the same brewery. Bought this beer at Amazing Oriental, the Hague.

Bottle 0,33ltr: Clear golden colored brew with some bitternesh, slightly better of taste than an "Corona". Works well on a hot humid summer day. Bought this beer at Amazing Oriental, the Hague.
