Can. A yellow beer with a thin white head. the aroma has notes metal, malt, and brewing cereal. The flavor is sweet with notes of straw and brewing cereal, leading to a dry finish. Thanks theis for serving this beer.

Can 33 cl. Courtesy of my cousin Martin. Pours a clear pale yellow with hardly any head. Unpleasant chemical aroma, no maltiness whatsoever. Light body, again no malts but a slight tartness. Ends rather dry. Well... 240811

Very light flavour. Kind of mossy. Light body. Rather nonexistant finish. No particular redeeming features.

Golden colour. Balanced, if light, grassy-grainy aroma. Hoppy flavour- not huge but the hoppiest yet in China. A noble-Chinese combo I would say. Finish is grassy-hoppy, with balancing malt. All-malt would be a reasonable assumption.

Dark straw colour. Aroma is a pee/pea combo (what’s with these Chinese hops?) Palate is earthy-fruity hops overtop bland pale malts. Astonishingly, I’m noting some bitterness, too.
