Slightly off-golden coloured body with a nice white head. Aroma of dry malt, a touch of light sugars, some very mild hops and a good dry finish. Light-bodied; Fresh malt flavours with a little sweetness, a decent amount of carbonation and a suprisingly amount of hops (good) that show some actual complexity and flavour. Aftertaste is relatively light with a touch of hops, some mild sugars, a little alcohol and some nice malt. Overall, a surprisingly nice beer and my go-to beer when in Fiji. I sampled at least 20 of these 375 mL stubby bottles at the Octopus Resort on Waya Island (Yasawa Chain) in Fiji on 15-20 August 2009 on my honeymoon.

Bottle courtesy of Phyllis Svetich. She packed a six pack, and five broke. She gave me the survivor. Thanks! Light, sweet, pale malt aroma. No detectable hop. Orange gold color with a white smear for head. It’s a bit fruity, a little bready, and mildly bitter. Medium body with light carbonation. Drinks more like a light ale than a pale lager. Bitter comes herbal, and tends to build up with time. Fiji could have it worse.

Dem Doppelbock verdank ich diesen Test meines Landes #39 Zu dem von Doppelbock beschriebenen Hauch von Malzigkeit schmecke ich zusätzlich noch einen leicht hopfigen Ton. Ansonsten schließe ich mich der Beschreibung an. Erfrischend, aber zu wässrig. Test vom 25.4.2006, Gebinde: Dose Noten: 6,7,12,6,7,7 - 7,50

Auch meinen zweiten Fiji-Test verdanke ich Doppelbock. Das Bitter ist definitiv kräftiger als das Gold, was ihm gut steht. Der malzig-herbe Antrunk ist durchaus auch bei heimischen Biere zu finden. Der Abgang allerdings ist weiterhin wässrig und wird nur durch eine leichte Bitterkeit unterstützt. Test vom 25.4.2006, Gebinde: Dose Noten: 8,12,9,7,6,9 - 8,90

A orange beer with a slight haze and no head. The aroma is sour from corn, and the flavor is sour combined with notes of metal. Barely drinkable.

(Can 33 cl) Slightly hazy pilsener golden with a small, creamy head. Inharmonious, lightly tart nose. Weak notes of malt, but generally dominated by sour brewing cereal. 270106

Hazy light amber with a thick white head. Sweet and fruity aroma but with a tinnish metallic bite. More malty than the gold but with the same yeasty bread taste. Can conditioned beer! Thanks to Presario. May 2004.
