Warning! Early amateur rating! Smokey, dry and somewhat bitter. Drinkable but a dissapointing drink immediately following the Jamaican Lion Head Stout.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Black pour with a beige head. Creamy coffee nose. Caramel, chocolate, soy sauce aromas. Licorice, caramel, treacle, coffee and sweet spice flavours. Subtle tastes, works nicely in unison. Smoky-dry mouthfeel. Sweet malty finish. Nice.

(Bottle) Poured black. Head was medium sized and light brown. Aroma contained metallicness, roastedness, liquorice, alcohol and sweetness. Palate was full bodied with quite a lot of carbonation. Flavours were malts, smoke, liquorice, ash, mildly sweetness and medium bitterness. Aftertaste was roasty and bitter. Fine example showing that there is at least one good beer brewed in Far East.

can - Pours clear yellow and very fizzy with a minimal head consisting of big, rapidly disappearing bubbles. The aroma is grainy malt and a little alcohol with a touch of fruit. The flavor is of sweet malt with corn and other grains and just a bit of fruitiness. The corn is not as strong as it would be in a malt liquor and this beer is smoother, but that’s about all I can say on its behalf. It’s bland, almost syrupy, and has no noticeable hops bitterness.
