Crisp golden coloured body with a thinnish white head, about a centimetre tall. Aroma of grass, light hay, some subdued malt and a little bit of sugars from fruits and pure caster sugar. Light-bodied; Grassy and very mild malt flavours at first with a touch of of citrus and grain and a touch of sugars noticeable at the end. Aftertaste shows some mild malts and a bit of grass with just about nothing else. Overall, a decent beer at best that doesn’t have much flavour, but what it does have, isn’t too bad nor memorable at all. Not a bad beer for the heat of Hong Kong during the summertime months, either. I sampled this 330 mL bottle purchased from City’Super! in Harbour City, Kowloon, Hong Kong, SAR on 02-July-2017 for HK$21,00 sampled at home in Washington on 14-August-2017 when I got back from my most recent trip from Hong Kong.

Gushing out of the top a little bit when opened. Nice clear golden coloured body with a peach glow and a rich, thick, five centimetre tall off-white head. Aroma of crisp hops with a mellow malt and a smooth sweetness. Medium-bodied; Assertive hops up front with some light malts, a touch of yeast and sugars and a smooth grainy, but hoppy finish. Aftertaste shows some mellow grasses, a touch of herbs, a lot of hop bitterness and a smooth, but supportive malt backbone. Overall, a surprisingly good beer with a lot of flavour, even after this time! I sampled this 33 cL bottle purchased from City’Super! in Harbour City, Kowloon, Hong Kong on 02-July-2014 for HK$24,00. Best By Date on Bottle of: 06-May-2015. I sampled this bottle just a few hours before leaving back for Hong Kong on 15-July-2017.

Many thanks for this beer to kevnic2008. Napis proszę nie kupujcie tego skusil mnie do zakupu. Niby nie Hong Kong no ale jest w bazie wiec można oceniac.Piana srednia nawet lekko kremowa ale błyskawicznie opada. Zapach trawiasty bardzo lekki. Jasne słomkowe i nawet lekko mgliste. Smak neutralny, lagerowaty i bardzo wodnisty. Nadaje się tylko do plukania ust nie do przelkniecia. Etykieta ledwo się trzyma butelki, skromny opis z którego nic nie wynika. Na etykiecie nie ma nic o tym ze produkowane w Strubbe.

Bottle carried back from Hong Kong. Nicely malty nose, caramel, light chocolate, rich malt. Earthy, citrus hops, slightly spicy. Rather typical old school amber nose. Hazy amber-orange, low fine head. Somewhat sweet caramel malt and earthy hops. Light citrus. Hop flavor is rather bland. Not bad, nothing special.

Interesting find during a visit to Cyprus, at The Old Fishing Shack, Paphos. Poured a very dark brown with a small off white head. Aroma has some mild chocolate, malt and caramel. Medium sweetness, light bitterness, minimal carbonation.
