Can at Craft n’ Taps Hanoi. Poured a clear straw colour with a frothy white head. The aroma is light malt with some hoppy notes. The flavour is moderate bitter with a light woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. I’ve tasted worse, much worse. At least it’s refreshing and drinkable and isn’t over carbonated. It won’t win any awards but I think some of the earlier ratings are a little harsh.

Bottle at Le Pub, Hanoi. The aroma is cardboard malt, light hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a light hoppy bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation. Served cool and it hit the mark in Asia but it’s no more than a simple lager with little flavour.

L’intensità olfattiva è normale e la persistenza olfattiva è sufficiente. Il gusto al naso è per orzo e luppolo. Il cappello di schiuma resiste poco, con bollicine medie. La consistenza del liquido è limpida. La carbonazione è praticamente piatta. Il colore è giallo dorato. Il corpo è medio. L’amaro è leggero. L’intensità gustativa è normale e la persistenza gustativa è sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali finali sono di facile beva. Il finale è dissetante e semplice. Il retrogusto è di media intensità.

Bottle from MItsuya’s. Light malt notes but really not much aroma-wise going on. Cardboard, malt and papery hop flavor on the palate. Finish is watery, without much hop action at all. Meh, bottled water.

Many thanks to Erzengel for sharing! Pours clear golden colour with a small white head. Aroma of grains, cardboard, some hops. Taste of grains, bad hops, pale malt, not good!

Can from an Asian-shop in Düsseldorf. Grainy sweetish nose. The beer starts mild and grainy with a neutral body and some strange sweet grainy hints. No bitterness, easy to drink, smooth and refreshing but the sweetish-strange aroma is not fitting there.

Bottle. Poured a clear, yellow color with a white, foamy head. Aroma was light mellow malts, adjunct rice notes, light skunk, but not offensive. Light sweet lager sweetness. Inoffensive.
