Bottled, huge thanks Riba for bringing it from Sri Lanka! Shared with Hrabren and Ogi. Golden body, off-white head. Corny sourish aroma, oily. Empty oily taste, lightly corny, honeyish. Yeah, not grainy, lightly minty, vaguely honeyish. Sub par rando lager.

clear pale golden colour, large, dense white head; aroma of grassy, hay, grainy and some barnyard notes; taste of a malt-dominant lager with some herbal hoppy and metallic notes; not that bad https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jj1MTTArzPI
