Keg at Shanghai Brewery, Shanghai. Clear orange colour, mid sized head. Aroma of grapefruit peels. Mid dry with medium to full body and clean, rounded mouthfeel. Syrup and grapefruit peels. Piney bitter finish. Basic, but quite functional.

dark brown color. Huge tropical fruit nose with brownies and dark chocolate playing in the background. Big full bodied mouth with excellent balance between roasted malt and resiny hops. Big bitter finish. Superb.

Hazy chalk white color. Fruity light hoppy nose. The mouth is somewhat smokey, with good hoppiness. Smooth light and balanced. Decent stuff.

Clear light amber color.clean nose with some marmalade notes. Light body a bit off balance, lacking bitterness. Still fun and decently made, but doesn’t go anywhere special.

chunks of peachs. Cloying, cheap synthetic peach flavoring which just destroys the beer. I have the feeling the weizen underneath ain’t bad, but this is revolting .

very cloudy golden color. Some type of underlying infection is present, or maybe they are only using partial mash, but regardless it is not very tastey. Refreshing but the beer itself is just flawed

wayyyy too much coffee and roasted character with hardly any balance. Just rough and raw. Blah. Again for whatever reasons the beers seem to tame after the first couple of sips. Still overall not very good at all.

this is even more cloying and Chinese tasting than the West River Hef. somehow I am getting used to this odd flavor.

smooth, light refreshing mouth, but odd after taste that tastes like the beer used dishwater from rinsing Kung pao chicken off a plate. Really strange finish. Odd thing to say but really distinctively Chinese
