Bottled. Best I can say about this is it lets me paste a "China" stamp in my album of country statistics. Big foamy head at pour that hangs around too long. Pale straw color, and generic "beer" smell. Hard to get a good sip out from under the hunka foam. Taste makes me yearn for the more complex flavor profile of a Budweiser. After some effort, I can taste a little malt sweetness and a slightly bitter aftertaste. To paraphrase the old stereotype, it takes much less than an hour again for me to be thirsty... for a real beer. Again, it doesn't taste bad per se, just has no taste at all.

Bottled. Pale golden, no head. Ricey, light bodied and fairly sweet, but soft and not really thin. Near no bitterness.

Bottled. Pale golden, no head. Thin, but to my amazement with a smokey flavour. Light bitterness. The smokiness is light - and I'm not even sure if it's intentional, but as there is nothing else there whatsoever, it dominates.

Bottled. Pale golden. Rice aroma. Medium sweet, bready and nearly medium bodied. Actually seems to contain some hops, and even a vague trace of bitterness. One of the better Chinese beers I've come across.

I guess i had a fresh bottle has the nose was faint malt, no skunk around here. The taste says adjunct but the bitterness saves this beer, as it makes it crisp. Very light and bland body.

Thin beer with off flavors. Not too appealing. This beer has a long way to go to be a drinkable beer.

Barely noticeable aroma of hops. Light yellow. Hardly any taste at all. Thin. This beer has nothing to offer.
