12oz Bottle My first and last China beer. i don’t buy stuff from China any way. But I had to kill my China rate. I guess I learned my lesson the hard way. This brew was skunk juice mixed with dirty China water.

Pours bright gold into a snifter. Bright white head recedes to skim surface and hug rim. Skunk aromas. Crisp and slightly sweet upfront with a sour finish. Doesn’t taste as bad as it smells...

35.5 cL can, alcohol content says >=3.6 - I guess you could be more lucky with some cans. Pours clear yellow with a fully diminished white head. Vague cornish aroma. Flavour is dry and bitter cornish. Slight cardboard note to a vague bitterness. Mild watery finish.

Drank quite a bit of this in Shanghai and Hong Kong and it wasn’t bad at all. Crisp, clean flavor with mild hops and some malts. Body is a bit thin, but that actually adds to its drinkability. Was incredibly fresh. I imagine it’s not nearly as good outside of China due to the green bottle, but if you can find it fresh it’s a pretty respectable macro lager.

Bottle. Poured light golden colour with a thick fast dssapearing head. Aroma of grain, and adjunct. Flat watery flavour, not much like beer. Flat finish. This isn’t a drain pour because it does have some thirst quenching properties, and I drank it after hard labour in the yard.
