Bottle in Hongkong. Neutral malty beginning. Fresh, but boring. No depth, roasted hints on a sweetish watery body. No bitterness, hints of malty sweetness. Sad.

On tap at The Globe, HK. Smooth fresh malty beginning. Nice malty-smooth, lots of floral hops with a nice smooth roasted body. Fresh floral and roasted viscous aftertaste on a smooth and slightly sweetish body. Round and smooth.

Nice crisp, very slightly hazy copper and bronzed coloured body with a single centimetre tall just off-white head and literally no carbonation when opened up from the bottle. Aroma of bread, yeast, earth, caramel, nuts and tons of cardboard. Medium-bodied; Very bready flavour with a good deal of yeast, cardboard, alcohol and a bit of pungent cereal flavours, all with some resin. Aftertaste shows the deep pungent malt, caramel and cereal notes that are of course coupled unfortunately with the yeast and bread. Overall, an unfortunately not good IPA that isn’t a very good beer in general with some deep pungent flavours that aren’t very nice, just a touch too deep and way too bready/yeastie. That said, to have an attempt at an IPA that was physically produced in the greatest city in the world is pretty neat - finally some of the British influence wore off on the city - perhaps some American influence can come next alongside all of the American attitudes and stores there. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from City!Super in Harbour City, Kowloon, Hong Kong on 02-July-2014 for HK$21,00 with the standard HK produced label, best before 15 June 2015. I brought this bottle back to the opposite side of the world and even though this wasn’t good at all, i’d do it again in a heartbeat!

Thanks to Mariusz for sharing. The beer starts floral hoppy, smooth and slightly malty. Intense floral, the malty and not too sweet body fits in great. On the tongue remains a malty-fresh aroma with nice malty floralness.

Thanks to Mariusz for sharing. The beer starts malty-smooth, fresh. Easy to drink with a nice sweetish malty body and hints of caramel. Smooth, easy to drink and still nice. Smooth-fresh aftertaste, caramel, malt, no bitterness. Nice.
